Богородица We are approaching a milestone here at Granny’s. Papa’s retirement date is set, and he will be under my feet here at home helping me in the near future. This is a good thing, he has always been a hard worker, and it is time for a little rest. Life in the slow lane, [...]

иконографияКартинимека мебел Wow, too much to relate here. I have spent some time just thinking. What is important, what I should do first, second and so on.

My little corner of the world is undergoing some changes. One of our daughters moved into an apartment last week, leaving an empty space in our home. I wiped up and swept up the rooms, and began moving books, magazines, and other items belonging to the genealogical society into the empty space. It was a [...]

We are headed down to Maumee, Ohio tomorrow to see Lost & Found in concert. If you aren’t familiar with Lost & Found start with this video: There are a bunch more videos on YouTube, but why settle for them, when you can see the real thing? Lost & Found are one of our favorites, [...]

What in the world have you been doing? Well, a lot of things, and most of them take more time than I expect. Thing One? Well, the flyer for Pickin’ on CF is finished. I also updated the CMS on that page today. Anything else? One more that I will mention today. We are having [...]

This morning, I headed over to my feed reader for a quick look at the headlines. The sad reality that the library in my city, Troy, Michigan, will be closing on May first was the first thing to greet me.

Yes, I have been MIA. I am back, but probably not as regularly as I should be. What is up? Life, I guess. I haven’t accomplished as much as I would like this winter, but something about the touch of spring we have had lately has energized me. Not all the way to “Energizer Bunny” [...]
