WORKIN New Year's Eve ....

This was a totally working hard day!
We knew we had a water leak..grrrr  Had called the refrigerator repair guys. Thought leak was from Ice Maker hose.
Lamar became "sure", this morning,  it was a hose into the house, not the refrigerator problem. {only way to locate was to MOVE the frig, check behind to see}!!
We began the morning by removing EVERYthing from under the cabinet, and out of our new Pantry (next to the frig) ~~to open up the area, so we could find the leak.
WHEW! what a freakin "job" that is to complete.
I called Marc, to come help the repair guys....woke him up from his sleep....He wasn't so happy w/his Mama.
Marc did come over, pulled out the frig (by himself!) and soon found the leak. It indeed was a hose into the house, and thankfully, not the frig Ice Maker hose. Marc made quick work of it.....and he was Off --to shop w/the kids.  (Christmas money was burnin 'em down!!)
This is what a kitchen looks like w/EVERYthing out of the cabinets....all counters covered {now y'all, ALL that had to be returned, when the deed was done} !!
 *this is what caused ALL this trouble !!
 sink counter..
by the stove..
 on the bar....w/tools
 briefly needed this..

left side of bar area.

After items were returned....took time to Clean out floors of cabinets.
Used  BLACK PEPPER {saw online} to deter any critters from outside, and stuffed Steel Wool into as many openings as I could see and get into. Hope it works..
HAPPY this is done. NO work  New Year's Day for me...LOL

Porch BABY....

Image
Walked out on porch this morning, enroute to my car. Noticed a bird, perched on the top of the screen door. Upon further inspection-----it was a BABY! It's lil feet firmly attached to the screen and backed up into the corner as tightly as possible! I tried thumping the screen to "shoo" him on...didn't work. Then, open & closed door...didn't work. It would just squeel sorta! and remain in place! I went on outside (w/camera, ofcourse)...no movement frm that attached stance. It's lil feet were firmly attached. I tried prodding gently w/broom handle....nothing! I knew it was a baby, it's lil eyes were only slightly open. Went back on porch and put on my softest gloves. Went out and gently removed it frm it's perch grip....boy did it fuss at me loudly! I know it was scared. Took the fella out and tried to place it on a bush limb. When I let go....it flew....not well, but it did fly off. It came back toward higher branch & lit there. Aft...

the "REST OF THE STORY"......

Image
I did soooo Love Paul Harvey. His stories were always so interesting.....and, he researched to bring a story to an often unknown ending. The "rest of the story" always let ya know.....the circle was closed on that topic for him. In that fashion....I wanted to do this blog. I love photography. I'm quite a happy amateur! Now, with Pinterest I get to see unlimited talent. This picture was one that "drew me in"....After I pinned it.....there were like 30+ other people who loved it too! This picture received the most pins on my boards. Just look at it....Never did try to track down the photographer. Only went as far as where the pin originated. Browsing pinterest boards is a fun pastime. I enjoy "following" pictures/quotes and such as far as I dare. In browsing.....I "fell into" a site. The photographer is TIMOTHY WALKER. A very eclectic range of photos. Behold! There was this picture among them. I gasped! (He has several other photos...

MEMORIES.....of Evonne

Image
Isn't she beautiful? Such an ol' soul w/a very sweet spirit about her. This is a difficult blog to write....LIFEtime/Sista friend, and "Auntie" Evonne. It is one I must write for me. Tears already falling....it's still very raw. We spent so much quality time together thru our years. Friends, school chums, and then....she married my Uncle Herman. Wow! Now she was "legally" a member of our family. How wonderful! Our lives were so intertwined....and will always be that way. There  simply is no way to express all we shared in this blog! Evonne SHARED so very much w/me. At the top....her dear Mother....Miss Louise. Miss Louise was a friend, mentor and 2nd mother. She treated me as her own daughter. I MISS her so very much, and now, I MISS Evonne, too. As Donnie said....it SUCKS!! Evonne also SHARED her beautiful daughter--Bonnie, and her 2 grandkids. I am unable to clearly express the love and fun those 2 kids have brought to my life. All 3 of them w...
