Approaching Holidays

With the holidays fast approaching us, it makes me wonder what all I am in store for. This will be such a bittersweet time for the family with out our folks being around to celebrate them all with us. Last year was the first year without them and it was a rough time all the way around. I can only hope that this year people will be able to lighten up a bit, all things considered.

You Tube

I’m glad that I discovered all the music that is offered for free at YouTube.com. At night when I just want to chill for a bit after a hard day of labor, I can log in quickly and find a few good tunes to listen to while I’m checking my emails and such.

I stumbled onto this song last night. I haven’t heard it in decades so it was a nice change of pace.

Labor Day

I have decided that on Sunday evening I will go into town and have dinner at the local diner for a nice change. I have grown weary of cooking for myself each night. Most nights I only have the strength for a quick sandwich and a glass of milk. I’m way over due.

Season’s Greetings From The Family Homestead

My parents were adamant about sending out Christmas cards to many friends and every family member that they ever had the pleasure of meeting and knowing. Last year I didn’t get a chance to send any cards out, for many a reasons. But this year I plan on sending out as many as I possibly can that I can read legibly on my mother’s handwritten Christmas card list. I discovered it a few months back in a dresser drawer that I was cleaning out and was pleased to read over it.

Since the place has many pine trees adorning it, I thought it fitting to sent the Pinecone photo christmas cards that I found at 123print.co.uk with the photo of the old house that I uploaded and will have imprinted on the front of it. I think the folks that will be receiving them will appreciate.

Christmas will be here soon enough, I have my work cut out for me, there are over 50 names and addresses on that list!

Direct TV & Football

I’m so glad that I had the insight to have my satellite service with Directv. I like my Direct TV TiVo and DVR and I can’t imaging life without them at this point. I have been way too busy around the farm and the old house to be able to catch many of the shows that I used to enjoy watching before being burdened with the running of the farm. If I wasn’t able to record them and watch them when I get a chance, I’d really be miserable.

With Football season fast approaching I will really be able to take advantage of all that my satellite TV provider has to offer. I’ll make time for watching as many games as I can possibly watch. A man has his needs you know!
