Doom and Gloom...
is all I hear about from most people these days.
I see it differently.
I guess I live simply so these "surging" prices I hear about haven't really affected me.
I already buy basics and do not "shop" alot.
If prices are too high I don't buy.
Deprived?
I don't think so.
Utilities too high?
Do with less.
Someone I know is paying over $200.00 a month for TV/Cable.
They only watch it a few hours in the evening.
Why do we need the "Alexis" type gadgets taking up electric in every room and the garage
for the convenience of saying
"set an alarm" or "play this" or "why is the earth round"?
What?
Do we need 400+ choices?
What is the harm in saying no?
Why do we think we need to keep everything the same way as before?
Why do we not want to change our habits to reflect life changes?
Why must there be ham at Easter, no matter the cost and a huge egg hunt?
Why must children have a hundred choices?
Adjust, adapt, change...
What is the worst that can happen?

Some things...
have been accomplished in the last few weeks/months.
Miss A competed in her first cooking contest in 4-H.
She baked Double Chocolate Sourdough Muffins and entered them in the Beginner Bread.
Proper attire for early morning checks!

Over and Out...

First one...
in the books!
Miss A showed in her first livestock show this weekend.
She was the only one to enter the ring with no halter on her lamb.
That's a Grandma rule.
If you did the work at home you don't need a crutch in the ring.
The lamb was jumpy from standing around waiting but she successfully set her up.
Next show is in 3 weeks.
Practice, practice, practice...

Small getaway and stuff
I impulsively took a 5 day getaway with friends about a month ago.
J and D are pseudo parents/family to me.
You know, always there with advice, comfort, help, etc.
J drag races so off to Rockingham we went in the Motorhome.
J and his son J Jr were racing.
D and I were "crew".
D fed us so well I gained a few #s.

Friend
brightens my day.
An instant friend R3 who I "met" and started working with during Covid floored me.
Turns out we sort of knew each other through our children in Elementary School.
I knew her son from my daughter talking about him and volunteering in their classroom.
She remembered me as the crazy Mom during field day tug of war screaming at her kid and mine as well as a neighbor boy to PULL .
We were the underdogs in size but I was trying to motivate those 3 as the biggest, tallest and strongest.
Physics said if they pulled and the anchor sat back hard they could win.
Guess what they did to the crowds surprise.
Maybe not in real life but it was a 5th grade triumph!!
Ribbons and ice cream were awarded.
Anyhoo... we reconnected through work and she is the best and most creative person
even though we now work at different agencies within the State of DE
we get together as often as possible.
R3 made me a thoughtful gift that choked me up.
