Andrea and Gabby in Bayside.

Gabby could use some work on her photographing skills.

But she did ok on this one. Bayside, TX

Creepy Wood's Mansion in Bayside. Andrea's family used to live down the street. Apparently the husband went away to war leaving his wife and 12 children. The wife went crazy.

Gabby was so darn excited about the barnacles. I was surprised she knew what a barnacle was.

It was very windy.

And the last of Bayside.

Creepy Fulton Mansion in Fulton, TX. I really would love to have done the tour, but it was too late.

We set out to eat a lot of seafood...and we did.

Liz, I absolutely LOVED those pix! Gabby isn't too bad as a photographer! Tanner is 11 (soon to be 12 this month) and she's becoming a very good photographer! She uses her camera phone a LOT but also the digital cam, too. For Mother's Day we're planning a trip to a nature park, and I can't wait to see what she comes up with then!

Keep the pix comin'! Those make me want to visit that place! I have an aunt who lives in Houston, and she's always telling us to come down. We may just have to! It's been many years since I've been to Texas. I've been to Austin and Corpus Christi.

Happy Freakin' New Year

Written January 1, 2021, when I tried to start a Wordpress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. 2020 and I had a love/hate relationship. I hated seeing what was happening to others and the world. I dealt with my fair share of struggles, but mostly, I think I was the closest to contentment that I've ever been. 1. I LOVED working from home MOMO working from home 2. I felt closer to my family 3. I didn't mind the slower pace and less to do 4. I was able to have a better work/life balance 5. I felt more productive at home and at work 6. I did a couple of home projects - helped my parents landscape my front yard, gave my bedroom a makeover with my sister, and reorganized my pantry with her Before After Pantry Makeover Bedroom Makeover 7. I spent the best summer with my son and dogs at my sister'shouse - laughing, crying, painting rocks, getting to know my fur nieces and nephews (Wall-E, Maggie, Leeloo, and funny, little, Peyton who we lost in...

FYI

Just so you know...my computer is sitting here, on the floor, next to me...at my parent's house!!! Woo Hoo! I've taken the first step in getting it fixed...but alas, there it sits...I'm not the only slacker in the family! Also, I turn 30 in less than 20 days...

End of Summer

Who knew that at 28 years of age I would be writing a post about how I spent my summer. Don't people usually stop talking about their summers after a certain age? Say like, 22? It probably wouldn't be such a big deal to me if I wasn't still a student who doesn't haven't to have a "career" year round. Well, here it is . . . the end of summer. I go back to work on Monday, and school starts on Wednesday. My days of sleeping in, going out, etc are over. I still get every weekend off when Gabby goes to her dad's, but we'll still be a lot more "scheduled" around here. End of summers when I was younger always felt weird because you were sad about the summer being over, but a little excited about going back to school, shopping for school supplies and clothes, thinking about if there'd be a new cute guy in class, getting to see your friends everyday. I have a whole section in my memory that is filed under "Summer". It's my favori...
