Esmerelda,

Just so everyone knows.....the SPEARS are for the cats and occasional hawks.....but the SMEARING is in reference to our ink on vellum.....although the spears could be used to help hold the vellum in place....hmmmmmmm.

Good Morning, Everyone!

It's dark and messy here as well, has rained all night, and now turned to a slushy mix settling on the rails of the deck. Supposed to turn to snow later this afternoon, and are expecting 3 to 7 inches. Guess we're going to venture out to Walmart for a few necessities... then spend the rest of the day carving.

Hope everyone has a wonderful day.

Paul Harvey will be very missed. I am an avid radio listener and love Paul Harvey's commentary.

ABC Radio Networks has some kind words about him on their website:

Our family loves Paul Harvey...when our kids where younger we would read his stories out loud from one of his books and then try to guess who "....and that's the rest of the story'" was about. He was an awesome storyteller and a great historian.

I suggest that when you plant a box covered with camo tape you consider if it looks like an explosive device and if, by its location, it is likely that law-enforcement will think it is one. I believe a camo taped box should not generally be planted in urban settings.

A paper bag and a briefcase also look like explosive devices, as well as pretty much any other type of container that appears to be hidden in an urban setting. Camo tape makes zero difference in this regard. If you want to keep law enforcement from getting excited, you should do either of two things: 1) use a transparent container so people can see what's inside without touching it, or 2) write the name of the letterbox, the word "letterbox", and "atlasquest.com" prominently on the outside so people can look it up on this site without touching it.

I subscribe to an email list called A Year of Crockpotting or something like that. You get an email every day about making stuff in the CP. Most of the recipes have been pretty good so far. I am sure you could find it on line--I am not good at making those links!
I also have sevral CP books that have great recipes in them. The kind that dont scream "I made this in the crock pot!" at you. My current fave is: Dinner a Day Slow Cooker 365 Appetizing and Affordable Meals Your Family Will Love. (Margaret Kaeter) The person that was talking abut Pork Carnitas reminded me about that book.
I was walking down a street in a nearby town and there the book was in the window! I swear it yelled Here I am!" As I walked past--had to buy it! Terrio--whos Granny always said...."the book is worth it if you find ONE great recipe in it." OK--this must be why I have over 500 in my collection!

Bec! Did you go up to Wonder Bread by yourself?! Manly Man was listening as I was reading your post and asked that very question! He said that's how they find bodies in the spring!

From Dance with Wolves:
"Somebody back east is waiting on them to write"

(I'm sure that's not the exact words, but that's the general idea as Kevin Costner and Eldon (Murphy Brown's painter turned cowboy) come across a family that had been scalped by the Indians)

He then told me not to say that, but I am! Girlfriend...you are brave! That is one wicked hike! Not to mention by yourself! I say again...take this hike in the late afternoon in the summer and smell Tecumseh's fried chicken on the way down!

(Manly Man says he's not going to talk to me again...rats!)

The expectant momma isn't entirely truthful here....
She has had the morning sickness although not too terribly bad. She has been very tired too. Then she got that head and chest crud too. So, while she has been doing pretty well, she had had her rough spots.

I hope the rest of the pregnancy is smooth sailin'.........and I want a girl....and I think the ultrasound pictures are wrong!!!!!! (LOL????) This is where I get to have all the fun and spoil the kid and then send 'em home, right?

Looks like we will get dumped on again - who knows if those power lines that were repaired 4 days ago will hold. Spring storms mean heavy wet snow storms.... the power lines don't have a chance.

So - if you can't get ahold of me - you'll know why... just follow the trackers and I'll play catch up when the power comes back.
