Still Partying Here In Our Neck Of The Woods/ It’s Danny’s Birthday
I just printed the photo out for him. Danny is working late field all week and tonight the Ranger Station is opened an hour later. That means we had an extra hour of time together this morning. I love our late mornings.
My Birthday Part 2 /Plus My Memories Of Past Birthdays
Danny was wonderful for most of my birthday. As I mentioned in Part 1, I woke up on Wednesday in a bad mood. It didn’t help that it was gloomy outside. Dark And Cloudy. Humid. I had trouble shaking off “The MOOD”. I knew a lot of it was because I was missing my dad….
Quieting Your Heart For The Holidays/ Update from Sarah On Week 1 And Life In Our Neck Of The Woods/ Week 2 / By Time Warp Wife
From Sarah :
I am starting this wonderful study today. I wasn’t prepared for it when Advent started last week. I could blame it on the fact we were in Plant City until Tuesday of the first week. I had plenty of time to get ready for it here. I could have shared the first week on time but I chose family (In my case , Danny) and held off. Lighting Advent candles at a B & B could have been done. We had the whole house to ourselves. I still chose not to. I wasn’t ready (in my heart ) to begin.
My HEART WASN’T QUIET.
MY HEART hasn’t been QUIET in a very long time.
I was praying that our mini- vacation would bring us closer and in a way it did. Yet, NOT IN THE WAYS I NEEDED IT TO.
Four Days In Plant City : Trains/ Large And Small
Danny And I were in Plant City for 4 days and 3 nights. We left our house around 10:30 AM Saturday Morning, November 30th. If it would have been up to me, we would have left the night before. LOL, Probably not though.The traffic would have been a lot worse than it was Saturday morning….
Our Get-A -Way/ The Strawberry House – Plant City, Florida/My Ramblings

Monday Ramblings From Our Neck Of The Woods
It’s Monday here on Rolling Meadows Ranch. It’s our Friday, meaning Danny is off til Wednesday. It was a busy weekend at Lake Kissimmee State Park. Danny had late field. Not so bad this time of year since we close earlier than we did in the summertime. Last we we closed at 7 PM. In…

Not The Normal Way To Start The Day.
It’s almost 8:30 AM. Danny and I were out before the sun came up looking for a water leak. We knew it would be a good size one.There’d been enough time for it to come to the surface. So we started looking again. We had already spent hours yesterday looking. There are old water lines…
What Happens After Danny Comes Home
We have some kind of snack. Danny leaves to change his clothes. Lunch box gets emptied. I unload the bucket of ice. Spilling the ice. Leftover hard blocks of ice go into the freezer. Then we talk about the park. What happened that day. Much of which I already know thanks to the radio. Usually…

When Danny…

My life right now is one big BORE. I actually laughed at that so I must be in pretty good spirits. It’s been raining again. Good for the grass seed. Bad for the flooding going on everywhere. The park is still flooded in places and has been for MONTHS. Our section of Rolling Meadows Ranch…
