I have found a new trade! (will not quit my day job)










During the week I noticed that some of my stucco was bulging a little. I took a putty knife and started to scrape a little off and continued until I scraped a lot off. I really had no idea what I was getting my self into but I found out quickly. The job was too small to call a stucco man and if he came he would have charged the heck out of me. So I took it upon my self to try and do the job myself. After the scraping I then painted a coat of concrete primer on it to help with the bonding and sealing. Then I began to stucco the next day, I could have done and will do a much better job next time. I really figured it out as I was finishing it up, but what the hay...did not cost me a bundle. As you can see I have now painted it and the new paint better hurry and fade or my neighbors will call code enforcement on me....ha



I know you might ask, what the heck is that stuff, well it is another dish of tomato gravy over biscuits. A month or so ago I made tomato gravy using just plain diced tomatoes. My son- law Doug who loves tomato gravy told me that it looked good. He said he would have to have hot sauce to make it better. So I decided that I would try it with Rot tel, WOW cleared my sinus out fast. If he uses hot sauce on that he is a better man than I am. I plan on make it for both my son-laws at Thanksgiving and maybe Sandy will try it, Darenda won't I know. Of course my sausage gravy will also make an appearance on one morning.


Will take care, from the kitchen Chef of never, never land.


Have a Blessed day and be Blessed.

“For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.” -Hebrews 4:12

He is Growing up too Fast!

Wow, as he ever grown up. and too fast. Seems like yesterday that Tyler was willing and able to sit in our laps. Makes you want to cry.... The picture of the tree will be posted after lunch...sorry. Here is the last look that you get of this Stately Oak Tree. It has been in my back yard since 1985. It has been the support of our grand kids little bodies as they swung in their real early years. Luke still swings on it occasionally but that will end. I am a little sorry about it but reality has set in. This is the tree that hangs over our home and keeps me very busy on the roof during falling leaf season. Also it keeps me trimming limbs that concern me about falling on my roof. And Hurricanes, we won’t go there but it has concerned me when I see the news and pictures of Oak trees that have fallen on homes. It also has been a big help in keeping our home from getting too hot during the summer heat days. But given the fact that I am getting older and also should something happen to me Pat...

WoW... what a weekend!

Pat and I flew to Pittsburgh last Friday to see Manatee play football. we also took in a couple of Pittsburgh baseball games. I can't say much for the Pirates but the Hurricanes were great. We were on the same plane as the team, it was fun. Friday night we were invited to a private box to watch the baseball game. It was a great way to see the game. A lot of food and many friends to visit with. As you can see we also had a big desert cart. I made a mistake and ate a big piece of carrot cake and the next my sugar crashed about noon, but it was worth it. Saturday morning Pat and I walked down to the Rib Fest that was down at the Steelers stadium. They also had a marathon with 6,000 people running in it, yes 6,000. I tried to take some photos of the first people coming into the stadium. I don't think they turned out to well. We met some friends for lunch at Jerome Bettis's sports bar. We went there to watch the Gator game. Really did not have much to watch as they reall...

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2012

Merry Christmas to all my friends and family   After what has happened in Newtown, Conn it is with a heavy heart that I enter the new year coming in. I just can not imagine how the parents and families feel, it just breaks my heart.   I sit an wonder what can we do to prevent this from occurring again. I can not come up with any logical ideas other than prayer. We must, must pray that our Lord provides us with a solution. We must pray that our leaders in this country help, some how. We must cuddle our children and grandchildren each day and show the our love and Gods love.   Prayer must be put back in the schools, in some families this may be the only place Gods name will be mentioned. There is no doubt in my mind that the devil is creating these issues. We must pray that all our children and parents let God into their hearts to guide and direct them. Jesus can and will help if we let him into our hearts and lives.   I pray that Gods love will be in ...
