Afternoon, folks! Happy to have you back here for yet another edition of Wishlist Wednesday, where we dream together of places we want to go. I have yet to have any suggestions from the viewers (I say that like there are so many of you). So be sure and join in the conversation and let […]

Happy Easter, Missouri! Just wanted to pop my head in right quick and wish everybody a happy holiday. I hope you get your fill of Easter chocolate and mustard-glazed ham. I’ll see you this week! Pan

Okay, okay, I know. I’m a horrible blogger. I’ve already missed one day this week (so much guilt) and here I am trying to post at 10 pm on a Friday night (I wasn’t always as lame as being home and in my pjs on a Friday night but apparently having children does such things […]

Good morning, er… afternoon folks! It may be your afternoon but it definitely isn’t mine. After working last night, I slept most of the day, just recently waking up, to prepare for another night shift tonight. Only a couple more weeks of this and I will be working a different shift. Boy, am I ready […]

That’s right. Karst topography. Are you reaching back yet? Go ahead, reach back far in your memory (probably middle school years) of Geography. Yesterday, when we were at Ha Ha Tonka State Park, I remembered I had learned this once before. Many years ago actually but we don’t have to talk about that. Karst topography […]

Oh folks. It’s gonna be a good day. Why? Well, we’re fulfilling this week’s Wishlist Wednesday and sure enough, we’re heading down to the beautiful, blue Lake of the Ozarks and hitting the trails of Ha Ha Tonka State Park. I can’t wait! We’re taking Baby Girl with us so I hope she will cooperate […]

Okay, here I am. 10:30 at night and just now making my daily post. Hey, I can’t help it. I’ve been one busy gal today. Besides being Mommy all day, I made my purchase of garden plantings for the year. My front two flower beds will be full of colorful beauties and the hubby planted […]

Oh Friday, sweet Friday. Bring on the weekend! After a long work week (I put in 4 shifts instead of my usual 3. And no, 3 shifts isn’t lazy-I work 12 hour shifts!), I am so ready to get this weekend started. I think I can honestly declare myself a summerholic. And I’m proud of […]

Afternoon Missouri! Hope everybody’s  day has been swell so far. Mine is just getting started (worked last night and again tonight). Well, yesterday we talked about Ha Ha Tonka State Park down by Camdenton (Lake of the Ozarks area). After I posted, I spent a little more time researching the area. I had no idea […]

Happy Wishlist Wednesday, Missouri! We are having another absolutely beautiful day! I am loving it! I just had my first Guru whoops. I had my whole entry completely typed and low and behold, gone! I have no idea what happened. So, here we go again. For our 2nd edition of Wishlist Wednesday, I am wishing […]

Happy Tuesday folks! Glad to have you with me here again. Today is the first edition of Travel Tip Tuesday. Now, again, this is all still in the works so I definitely need your input. Loveit, like it, or like it not at all? Our tip for this week is: Buy an atlas or map and […]

Good morning all! Happy to have you back here with me today. While most of you are at work and hard at it already, I have my barefeet kicked up while on my sun porch drinking my morning Cup-O-Jo. Why is it called that anyway? How did they get “Jo” from “coffee”? Enlighten me please if you […]

Happy Fantastic Sunday Folks! The flowers are definitely in bloom right now. This is just a tiny sampling of what’s to come this week, when I talk about my couple hour venture to the State Capital in Jefferson City. I got to spend yesterday morning with a friend and her kiddos (and of course, my beautiful baby […]

Greetings guys, gals, and Guru pals! Hope you are enjoying this beautiful Saturday (even though the clouds have now settled in). I am fortunate to have spent my morning with my BFF and her kids walking the gardens at the state capital. This week, I will show you all the great pics of the weekend. […]

Happy Friday folks! Whew, we made it. Another weekend finally here. I hope you’ve got something exciting planned for the weekend to share with me on Monday. As for me, my plans are to spend time with my sis, who is coming home from Colorado. For our future Friday topics, I’m giving “Festival Friday” a […]

Good afternoon Missouri! I am feeling very thankful this day in particular. If you’ve read my welcome letter, you know that I had been involved with an internal struggle as of recent. There are hobbies I would like to pursue, things I would like to do, and I’ve had a feeling that I needed something […]

Welcome back folks! Here I am. Day 2 of my residency in BlogVille. I made it through my first day and now I’m back for more. I can see how a new blogger (me) would get discouraged in the early days. All this time and thought put into your writing and trying to create something […]
