" SIX UNIMPORTANT THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY " in no particular order of unimportance...


  1. Leaving the Gym after a good workout
  2. Riding around in my convertible on a sunny day, with the convertible top DOWN!
  3. Any time the Sun is shining, and it is warm outside, and I am not at work!
  4. Sitting on the deck... at night on a warm evening, with a fire in the fire pit... with my other half and family
  5. Visiting one of the wineries in Lake Chelan, and doing some wine tasting while sitting on the lawn..with no worry about time.. in the sun, looking down on beautiful Lake Chelan.
  6. Having time away from work..my Holiday.. even if it is at home with nothing to do!
Ok.. time for me to tag 6 victims. This really is an easy and fun tag to participate in:

Memories on Monday ...



Do you have any idea what these are???

No ? I thought so! My horsey friends will know... of course!

We call them "slinkies". When we were keeping the horses all clean and slick, and show ready.. we used them to keep the horses from getting sun bleached and clean in the summer...they would where their summer "sheets" with them. Or in the winter with their blankets and hoods..

Of course since today is Monday Memories.. that is exactly what these are now.. memories!

My pasture ornaments cannot remember the last time they wore their horsey jamies..and have kissed them good by!

I sold them (the slinkies, not the pasture ornaments aka "the Girls")on Craigslist!

Happy Monday!

Happy VGNO!!! Week 7 for me!

Yeah..VGNO.. I have decided to not participate in the pandemic, and will party on with all of you...

Without the masks... if anyone sneezes, I am not worried!

It is OK if you don't cover your mouth when you cough..on my behalf.. as I am confident I will NOT be participating in the Swine Flu tonight... cough.. sneeze.., sniffle...

And of course "Thank You" to Ann Again... and Again.. for our Friday Night Party!

Happy VGNO!
