Last Calling For Ostara Scavenger Hunt

I’ve been out looking for new blogs to Nominate for First annual hidden treasure blog awards.
I don’t know if I’ve been looking high and low for new blogs.
I decided to take the letter “P” and see what new blogs I could fine. The letter P had to be in the first letter of their URL or their blogs name.
The other things I’m looking for in a hidden treasure award is a blog with less then 10 comments on majority of the time and haven’t received a blogger award of any type.
I’m one who haven’t received a lot of awards in my life and the ones that I have gotten it always made me feel proud for what I did.
When I was younger I had a horse which I rode in different compations and received quite a few different awards.
One year I got reserve champion at Spokane county fair out of about 50 horses. I put in a lot of time in.
Then anther year I won an endurance compation. Horse and rider went a long grueling ride and when they got back. Both should be in condition to do it again.
In Kindergarten I got my clown picture I did and the teacher said it was nice and showed the entire class.
Most of the time I never carried for teacher and parent conference it usual meant bad news. One of the teachers said if we could give an award for honesty “Peppy would get it”
It feels good to get recognized for a positive thing.


We went and seen Earl and Quenelle up on Katka mountain and let me tell you they have a lot less snow then we do.
She still hoping to get a few weddings this summer at her place She got beautiful gardens.
Opinion time…On her site she needs to set up a merchant account for her business Until then I’d be surprise that anyone will book a wedding.
She has an ideal that once she gets her weddings going the money will come rolling in and she not a lazy person.
The people I know who has money works very hard and it just never fell out of the sky

Second Calling

style="width:400px;text-align:left;">

Just recently Murphy and I hung a few picture in our dinning area. Most of the areas I’m pleased on how the picture our displayed.
The veggies picture I like the way it lines up with my little nick nack shelves. “The dust collectors!” In recent times I took some of my large miniatures teapots and put them in a hutch in living room. Confession time...I would like to get that hutch out of the living room and put something else their. I’ll find some type of dust collectors to put on the shelf. “I think it looks a little naked.
Above my flower picture, we’re adding a shelves so we can display a few older tins, and I got candle mold from the revolutionary war and a lantern from the same time period. Which been in the family for years. Can’t say the piece are new looking. Their showing their age.
Now for my bread picture. Honest time...I’m not sure what I’m going to do with it I know I don’t care for it buy it self. I’m totally clueless what I want to do with that area. I’ll keep my eyes open for stuff to make that area come alive. To me having just that bread picture there just doesn’t do it for me.




Trying to find the right word to describe the basic all American hamburger. I’ve thought of terms like yuk, can’t stand them, great tasting, and just love those hamburgers.
Confession time...Once in while but rarely I get a craving for juicy hamburger with all the trimming. I guess all and all I would use these statement to describe a hamburger.
“Over Rated!”, “Boring!” and Uncreative!”
As you can see I’m not the biggest fan of hamburgers. Murphy says their dependable and that’s one of the words I would described Murphy.

The Munsters



When I was young and if I get the opportunity now I like watching the sit com The Munsters
I guess we all growing up thinking at one time or anther that are family is norm or werid.
I’ve always thought the Munsters might be a little different or they had the backbones not to act phony.
Feeling time...I actual felt sorry this family would be excepted for who they are Yes, I know it’s a sitcom. But there is lot of truth on how we treat people who doesn’t belong in the same group or catagories.


The stars of the Munsters
Herman Munsters
Lilly Munsters I was surprised how many classic and well known film she played in.
Grandpa
Eddie Munsters
The charter of Marilyn Munsters was played by two different actresses.
Marilyn Munsters
Marilyn Munsters
All in all I found humor how the outside world act toward the munsters. When they meet one of the Munsters they’d ran away from them.
It only show you that people has trouble excepting things that are different then what may be popular or don’t take kindly to change

Giving the Letter "D" a Whirl

Murphy, Bart, and I stopped at one of our local thrift store to see what they had. As I was looking around and I started to look at some pictures and found two pictures I liked.
And I thought I had the prefect place to put them.
Now I’ve tried the pictures in different places in my kitchen and dinning room and now I can’t decided were I want them.
Anyhow Bart thought I was a little nuts looking to buy art out of thrift store. I know I’m not going to find pictures for $3.99 a piece in no art gallery.





For some reason part of my 101 things I thought I had put down was a family pictures in our hall way.

The Horseless Cariage Only Eats Hay!!!

Last few days I felt like I’ve been jerk around and horse whipped. At this time I desire some tranquility in my life.
But before I get to why I’ve been jerk around.


Last Tuesday my son Bart had a wrestling match and it was a home match. Confession time..when it comes to wrestling I’m one clueless person
I knew the object is to pin your opponent in certain length on time. I just figure it out at the match. 2 minutes!
I didn’t know you earn points in wrestling. On the scoreboard when I was looking at the points I thought they were fouls.
I’ve been thinking of taking Bart to North Idaho College for a Wrestling Match So he can explain to me what is going on.


We’re down to one rig.
Let see the only one is running is my Mazda and it well over due to be serviced. So in morning I’m going to drop off my car at Dycks and keep my fingers cross that my car done before one in the afternoon.
A short time ago I mention that Sawyer got a pick up and it broke down. Well it still in the shop waiting to see what the problems are.
Some how they broke the ignition. The way they make it sound it going to be a good week or so before anything is done on it.
They told my son that he has to pay for labor and the cost of new ignition to get fix. Opinion time..I don’t think my son should have pay for labor on something they broke
Sawyer works 3 days up on Schweitzer but he has a chance to get in extra day at work but transporting might be a royal pain these last few days.


I know of two blog awards I’ve bumped into recently. A blog award I have never taken part in.
Over at Everyday Mommy Is hosting a blog award for a hidden treasure blog award.
To see the rules visit Everyday Mommy and she explains everything.

My Bra Over Flows

This morning as I was sipping my morning jo and visiting my coffee pals over at Witches within had a biblical quiz.

You know the Bible 67%!
 

Congratulations! You know a lot about the Bible - the books, the characters, the events. You are able to remember a lot of what you have heard and read!

Ultimate Bible Quiz
Create MySpace Quizzes


So Murphy and I went to Sandpoint JC Pennies to get a few items. They had neither one of our stuff in the store.
So we had to order it by catalogs.
I got a bra. I have a real hard time finding bras that fit right. Most place carries up to a double dd and I were an H.
Feeling time...I feel embarrassed and sometime a little depressed for having such large boobs. and I don’t know if this bra will even fit right.
But a least these bra had some choice of fabric, color, or lace on them. I don’t have many choices when it comes to bras. Other then medical white.
Murphy needs a pair of work boots and they didn’t have a wide width so he ended up ordering some boots.


One of the other reason I went in is to price out few items to set up my ceramic business. I got list of everything I needed to price out and I forgot a pen.
I managed to get two prices written down. One is some fold up shelves for $59.99 and I’ll need two of them.
The other was a 1 and ½ cup grinder for $9.99.
So the last few days I’ve been taking inventory of my underglazes and glazes. It sure doesn’t look like I need to purchase very much for glazes or underglazes.
I don’t think I’ll hardly need anything for overglazes but that can wait. My best guess that I’ll need some brush cleaner and maybe some precious metals.
I’m slowly getting more stuff priced out.
Honest time...We should be building anther set of shelves to put more of my ceramic molds on

Is Anyone Paying Attention, Now

Since Hillary announce she a Candidate for President of the United States

I was wonder who all was going to run or strongly consider running for the office of President. I went over to wikipedia and found these candidates for the President 2008

Let see on the democratic side they’re 12 candidates and Honest time.. I can say I’m filmier with 6 of the canidates.
Now let see what the republican candidates who seeking the office of the President. It looks like their 15 candidates running for president. Honest time...I’m only filmier with 4 of the candidates
I took a look who also seeking the office of the united states in third political party. There is 17 candidates who are seeking the office of president of the United States


Question time..Is anyone really paying attention to what these candidates stand for? It seem are election is based on a person who is charming, can be will presented on any media, the one who can pay for the best political add to tear apart the person who running against him.


Does anyone real pay attention to what the candidates are real saying?

At this time I’d say I’m more in favor for John Edwards and Dennis Kucinich


Honest time...Lot of these candidates I’m total clueless where they stand

Pot Holder Swap

It’s been less then 24 hours since I sign up for anther swap. I promised my self that I would do only two swaps at a time.
This morning I search “blogger “ for swaps and came upon this one. Over at
Happiness Zombie
A Pot Holder, and one recipe for a casserole. Now not like I’m going out and buying a whole bunch of stuff that going to cost least a finger.
Potholder Swap



Today I drove my client Callie to meet with her doctor and see what can be done with her neck.
I understand their going to put a shim between her neck vertebras and some type of titian thinging Mc Bobber.
She will have to spend one night at the hospital.
As I understand it they will be no neck brace, her voice might be a little horse because they’ll have to move her vocal cords for the surgery.
Some physical Therapy.
And every 12 weeks she has to go and see the doctor for a year to see how the shim is working out.


Before we drove down to Courd’Alene I swung by my home to drop off most of my paycheck.
They have a neat dollar store in there and with cash in hand I could get carried away in there.
I only bought 6 items.
As I picked my items up and was wondering about the store trying to locate Callie and wondering to my self why I buy these items. I know they come from a place that doesn’t treat their workers fairly. Plus I couldn’t make some of the items what they sell there. The material would cost me more then what they sell the stuff for.
But it’s way to pick up a few nice items for a gift basket.


As Callie was in with the doctor I brought my book “Happiness” to read.
I feel these are very wise statements. Not a lot of them
1. Your life is your gift to the world-the ultimate expression of you.
2. Creativity causes the soul to rejoice.
3. One of the biggest stumbling blocks to creativity is fear.
4. God sat up the universe in motion then left the rest to us.
5. We can never have too much time.
6. To strike a balance between remembering yesterday and imagining tomorrow.
7. Muddy water stands, become clear.
8. If you slay still, without rush in and clean up the mess, a situation can reach it own conclusion
9. A decision involves gathering all the data, examining it from every angle, and then allowing the best response to emerge.

10. When you point your finger at someone, there three pointing back at you

11. In the matter of principles stand like a rock; in matter of taste swim with the current

Winter walk and Fun Things in the Bloggers World


This morning just before noon. Butch and I went for a walk to look at our winter wonderland.
Well Daisy followed us.
At the end of our walk one of the neighbors dog came running towards us wagging it tail a very friendly creature with dark curl tail and soon as it stop! It sat with tail in motion waiting for his petting. After I pet it he went on home.
Well before the neighbor dog I turn around and see what Daisy was doing. She was on dead run towards home.


I got my pay check and it seems that the pay check is never enough to cover it all. I got a seed catalog in the mail and their was a few things I wanted in there. But I real don’t have enough to cover the regular bills



A short time ago Sawyer trade of his MR-2 for a pick up. So last night he was taken a friend home from work and his pick up broken down right before the golf course. So we ran him to the bank and over to some of his friends. That he can reassure his pick up.
Feeling time…I had a blast driving his MR-2 But I understand why he traded it in for a pick up. The car isn’t no good on snowy and icing roads.
I sure hope their isn’t any real major problem with his pick up.


This morning I was visiting and reading my coffee pals and found some fun and interesting things in the blog world.
This morning I was reading Peas corner and in her blog their was a link to a A Bloggers Party Put on by the ladies of 5 minutes for mom.
Then the way of Kathleen Marie had a link to First annual hidden treasure blog awards Every day mommy is putting on the blog award.
Confession time…I’ve never been to a blogger party or been part of an blogger award. I’ve done two swaps and had a blast with both.
Now for the swaps! Over at Miss R she hosting a heart, flower and chocolate swap. This one is closing soon.
Plus my swap for Springtime scavenger hunt is open still.


Briefly today I priced out more of my canister set. Statement time…I wish I knew what the price of gas will be in September or October so I know what price range I need to focus on
I’ve been pricing my ware if gas here is between $2.51 and $3.00. Recently it been going down, now it at $2.29 a gallon. So my wares will sell for a little less.
I wish a big booming voice would come out of the blue and say “Gas after the summer driving will be_____” and I’d be glad to get that price range done

The Bird Lost it Worm

Murphy and I went to Sandpoint and got a few unfun things at Wal Mart we needed such things as toilet paper.
Murphy bought 4 pair of jeans before he heads back to work but the way the weather been he won’t be going back anytime soon.
As Murphy went back to look for a larger and stronger sew needle for the sewing machine. I was standing by the fabrics and I at one time found some material I like to use for curtains in my kitchen windows. I didn’t see it and I start to look more intense and still none of that fabric I liked. Statement time I guess the early bird does get the worm.


Before we went into Wal Mart I went into Fantastic Sams for a haircut. Which I wanted, and needed for sometime.




Sometime ago I got notice in our mail box that I had package down at the post office. The other day I finely got down to the post office and picked it up. Well it was from one spirit and usual when they offer me books I fill out the cards and refuse their choice of books.
Some reason I didn’t this time.
I got this book called Happiness by Joan Duncan Oliver and just looking through it, I think I’m going to enjoy it.
Something for page 123…”our greatest glory is not in never falling but in rising every time we fall” Confucius.
I also got an Tarot deck of cards. Haven’t had any real times to learn and use them. At this my 4 favor ones are 6 of hearts, 4 of swords, the moon, and Empress.

Kidney Cancer

The other morning my Aunt Eve called me and said Uncle Henry has Kidney Cancer I’ve only talked to her once brief and at this point I know he had surgery done at Bonner General Hospital To the best of my knowledge they remove some tumors and cauterized some.


My Aunt Eve don’t agree or doesn’t under stand people getting government hand out for hardly anything.
In my job as a home care giver I’ve helped people who may have a spouse in the home and she wonders why they don’t take care of each other.


Murphy has a Step Aunt who pretty well refuse help when her ailing husband got pretty bad off.
He died and all the stress she was under and shortly afterwards she ended up in our community nursing home.


I believe it better if you get someone in your home to help you take care of your love ones. I know my Aunt Eve as long as Uncle Henry is ill she won’t ask for help and I worry about what the stress can do to her.

North Idaho isn’t real friendly to the ideal of “environmental things”. At one time it was quite fashionable to have bumper stickers to blame the economy on the environmentalist.
Well in our local paper a letter was written telling about freecycle and now there is a group in Bonners Ferry At this time I didn’t see anything that fancied me.
But I notice a set of twin message that was posted the first part of January.
My friend Quenella knows a family who could use some mattress for their children. “ I hope it works out well for them.”
But I have to say “North Idaho is slowly becoming more environmental friendly


I’m one who don’t mine a freebie or a give away. So every so often I’ll check though Lee Seats, freebies This site here can link you up to great little free things. If your looking for big ticket items this isn’t the place.
It place for small free samples.


Last Christmas I was involved in two swaps and had a blast in both of them. I recently found anther one for Valentines. Miss R is the hostess of heart-flower-chocolate swap. It sounds fun

Cookie Jars Are Priced

Last week I’ve been typing out my retail price list for ceramics. When the gas price at Shell station is between $2.51 and $3.00.
When I started to type the prices gas was up to $2.50 and I didn’t think gas was every going to drop.
But I know I won’t be ready to do any show this summer. I’m looking forward trying a craft show in September of 07.
Good New... I got my cookie jars priced out Now my next category will be my canister sets.
I got a section done for my 101 things to do #4, still a lot to do.


Murphy and I went out to the barn/shed to do some measurements and see what would be the best way to put in the shelves for my molds.
He figure a way to put up the shelves and easy way to acquire my molds.

Babling On and On

Liebenswürdige Göttin des Überflußes, segnen dieses winr und gießen es mit Ihrer Liebe hinein. In Ihrem Namen, Muttergöttin und Vater-Gott, segne ich diesen Wein (oder brauen Sie, pressen Sie usw. aus)



O goddess gracious da abundância bless este vinho e infuse o com seu amor. Em seus nomes, goddess da mãe e deus do pai, eu bless este vinho (ou brew, juice, etc.)




De verfijnde Godin van Overvloed, zegent deze wijn en giet het met uw liefde. In uw namen, de Godin van de Moeder en de God van de Vader, zegen ik deze wijn (of brouw, sap, enz.)



On my side bar there is a symbol of Babel fish and you can press a flag countries flag and have your blog appear in their language.
Then over at web site you may type something in your own language and have it interrupted in language of your choice or you may interrupted a web site also
If your listed on my coffee pals select one the flags of babel and after it loads you can select your name and you can see your blog in a different language.



Language always and pronunciation of words sort curiosity of mine. Certain words is spelled the same but it seems that we all may say them differently or the way we here certain sounds.
On the word Portuguese I some time will pronounce the silent T is a K so it sounds like Pork.
Why is Hello the word we use when we greet someone in the English Language


Up above there is a prayer same prayer and see if you can figure out what language their in

Silly Me


Oh Silly me, I always thought that little envelope was a symbol to contact the blogger by e-mail.
Autumn Meadow straighten me out on how to receive an e-mail from my blog.
Now I got my e-mail turn on. So anyone who wants to join in on the Ostara Scavenger Hunt Can.


Oh I need my head examine, I said I was going to curves on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday before I went to my client Callie and guess what I haven’t yet showed up.
One thing I’m not is a lair and I always try super hard to make sure my word is good.
So on the other days except Sunday. I’ve put my self on walking regiment but today was my first walk of 2007.
It was 10.8 this morning here and it pose to get a lot colder. Not sure if cold enough for my dad to say “ It cold enough to freeze balls off of a brass monkey” I put on heavy coat and put a leash on Butch and bundle up. Most all the driveways around here are like a skating rink.
As Butch went out for our walk I decide to take a picture of the homes we pass. Our home is the dark green one.
In my guess I’d say I walk around trip just short of a quarter mile. If you take quick gander at driveway behind the car, it sheer ice and so our driveway.


Murphy law (not my hubby) and I are best buddies. I’ve started to do retail prices for my finish piece on ceramics. When I started gas been $2.49 and nine tenths for ages. So I thought gas would stay or go up.
So I decide to price out my pieces if gas was going to stay between $2.50 and $3.00. Well yesterday I notice gas is starting to drop in price. Most place gas for regular unleaded is $2.39. So at that price my pieces would sell for less because it cost me less to do.

Moving a Long



I clean out 3 more of my kitchen drawers today. If you notice in pile of junk there is a aqua color straw and when you blow thru it sounds like bull elk bugling.



Murphy and I been talking about selling the Nova and getting a pick up. We need a pick up to haul trash, we have no way of getting building supplies unless we barrow someone else rig.
Plus we liked to gather things from the voods and use them to decorate around the place



I finely made crab cake, from a Martha Stewart Cook book which I have.
They came out pretty good the only thing I’d do different is to make them more into a patty shape.
Murphy made a fried rice dish from little bit of roast pork and odds and ends from the fridge. My hubby can do wonders when it comes to fried rice dishes
Edit note…for some reason I can’t get my picture of my crab cake to show





I once again worked on my price list for what I’ll be selling finish pieces of ceramics. It seem such a long procedure.
I have over 2,000 ceramic molds and so many varity way of doing the same piece.
I did some looking for office supplies that I’ll need. I’ll need a binder that will hold legal size paper.
The only place I look on the net was staples because there is one in Sandpoint and I thought it was quite pricey.
But the other day I was in Staples looking around and found some other things like these shelves
Today Murphy and I hauled some rocks out to by the barn/shed so we will be using them as what we will be sitting the shelves form on.
The barn got dirt floors at one time we talked about putting concert but at this time we can’t afford it

It Coming Along How Ever So Slow

This morning I got called into work early my client Callie was real hurting. I was going to curves and start exercising again but it just didn’t work out.
Callie did some nerve damage in her neck and it is still acting up. So her mom Karen and I took her to the emergency room.
First they gave her a shot of something and it didn’t do didly do for her and so they got out the big gun (Morphine) and gave her shot. Still in quite a bit of pain but it barely took the edge off.
They also gave a muscle relaxer shot and they wrote a Rx for 6 lortabs.


So tomorrow I’m coming in early and get her daughter Patty off to school and at 8 in the morning I’m taking her to see her regular doctor and try to get some answers. Last Thursday she had a nerve test and they know their nerve damage in her neck and I know she should be getting a cat scan.
The only thing I know she in a lot of pain and something needs to be done


I got a little more type for my retail price list in the ceramics. I finely got in my extra large apothecary jar.
I’ve always liked the extra large apothecary jar, oh their so many neat things you can do to this jar.
I got 9 different ways of doing this jar the price arrange from $13.00 to $34.75. Honest time…the other size of jar I real don’t care for them But the smallest one would make a great spice set. At this point I’m unsure how many I should put in a spice set and what price I should or need to ask.
I googled in Apothecary jar and came up with this site.
Plus I looked the word up in a dictionary and learn a “apothecary jar is something that a medication is put in. I think the word apothecary is still use in United Kingdom.
I just never new were the term came from

Individualism, Aren't Making A Grand Statement

I was going to blog about the up coming events from the Middle East mainly Iraq and how it going to grow into a major political, economic and religion time bomb.
As we hear President Dubya wants to increase our troop force and on the other side of the coin we want a withdraw of troop


We as are people who is “free to practice Individualism” Over at Wikipedia I found this statement quite interesting Individualism is a term used to describe a moral, political, or social outlook that stresses human independence and the importance of individual self-reliance and liberty. Individualists promote the unrestricted exercise of individual goals and desires.
But when one practices individualism can be demean


Why are we in the Iraq, aren’t people free to be individuals? Statement time…I may not see eye to eye to you. But I believe each individual has something to offer me every what size it may be and I can grow and learn from each and everyone.
I was trying to find the word Individuality in our United States constitution but came up blank.
We all been told we have individual rights such as freedom to be individuals. But when we as individuals practice are own personal individualism we may be “stepping out of the norm”


Honest time I didn’t get much from speaker or the inspiration at the gardenia center today.
The speaker came from Nelson British Columbia and spoke on the sun, magi and star. But what I found interesting is her menching the Epiphany .
She brought an different way of looking meaning of life (lack of better word) In Egypt they celebrate Osisis I hope I got the right god.
I came to a different understanding we are made of different size of individuality pieces


That the reason I like to attend the Sunday service at the gardenia center. At most church we are accepted to think and believe as a group, not as individuals.
Every Watch the Simpson and in their Church Service with Rev Lovejoy that anyone thinks outside is looks as a freaky Unitarian

Just Quick One


My computer went down for the count and we end up putting a new hard drive in.


I was looking forward taking a picture of January full moon but it was quite deary that day. But I know some people were just more luckier then us Idahoans


I decide to take a snap shot of North from our place, towards Canada.


I’ve been doing some cleaning with vinegar and water. Plus some rearranging things in the cabinets. Oh how I could use more cabinets but it looks like we won’t be doing and major purchase for a while.
Money their just not enough


I just don’t who took a picture of Murphy and I. But this is what we look like


The other evening when I was coming home from work. The neighbor was burning his slash pile from a logging job from last spring.
Their benefits of burning slash and also leaving slash piles. Then on the other side of coin their problems of burning slash piles or just leaving them.
Opinion time...I think they could be a smarter way of doing slash piles I’m far from an expert on slash pile burning but it might be something to blog in future.


I start once again to do a price list for my finish piece for ceramics and at this time I’m doing my cookie jar.
At this time I’d sell a finish Porky Pig Cookie Jar for $28.50 and I checked froogle and what prices for the cookie jar, $35 and $ 40.


Today is Murphy sister Faith birthday

Daisy


Shortly after Christmas there was this little dog hanging around our place and she was skinny and lost.
Murphy taken a real liking to her.
Honest time...I should put more effect in finding her owner but on the hand she wasn’t taken care of.
We stop at Naples General Store to see if someone posted a sign for a missing Blue Healer.
At first everyone was calling her Buttons. Then Murphy decided to call her Dusty and I’ve never been a fan of the name Dusty.
So in agreement we all call her Daisy.
She sure isn’t the alpha female scared of every little thing


I finely got my North wall done in living room except I’m thinging of putting a corner shelf in North East corner and I place my wondering Jew plant there.


As for last month December the warmest day was the 27th at 53.8
The coldest day was -5.3 the 21st of December.
The high average for December was 33.8
The cold average for Dec was 15.9
All and all December of 06 is a little warmer the December of 05.
I decide to not take picture licking toward Roman Nose (West) but instead of Southwest. Which there is a larch, pines and in far back ground cottonwood.


I’ve been having panic attacks today and when I was in B.T.C grabbing a few things. I sudden feeling like I was trap in a coffin.
No I didn’t loose it.
Before my doctor moved she increase my zoloft to 100 mg and recall me back and said I should make an appointment with anther doctor and see if there is something else I could take.
I real gain the weight 6 months or so.
So Wednesday I go in. I hoping there is possibility that they can put me on one of Wal-mart anti depressant/anxiety.
Zolfoft is so expensive
