Young at Heart

How come my mind feels so young like I am still a teen.

But in reality I am a 70 years old lady losing my strength and full of aches and pains. I go to do stuff I have always done and either can't do it or I hurt if I do.

You know I think the you that you are never ages. Your mind or soul stays always young but growing in knowledge . Would it not be nice if our bodies could stay as young as our mind.

Now I think I understand when we die our soul returns to God and our body get buried or cremated.

I have been thinking a lot lately about death and how my mind just feels so young like that first picture of me. Well I guess I will just just keep on keeping on and enjoy my life as God meant me to one day at a time.

The bathroom Issue

OMG I can't believe all the talk about who can go in who's bathroom.  When I am out in public and I have to go to the bathroom. I head to the ladies room. But if said ladies room is busy and the men's room is empty I go there, because when I have to go I have to go. 

I don't care who goes in what bathroom as long they they keep the door closed and I don't have to see it. I am getting so sick of all this stuff. 

Like with the Rebel Flag. Thousands of soldiers died in war defending the rebel flag and there was tons of heroes who died so both sides. That flag is a part of history and should be allowed to fly. 

Just like religion whether you are a christian, a muslim, a hindu whatever you should be able to publicly pray or study your bible or koran this world is getting so bad. We should just love one another and not sweat the small stuff.

Mother's Day



Mother's Day is suppose to make Mothers feel special. But I did not feel special on Mother's Day. It made me wonder, was I a terrible mom? What did I do wrong. Did I not give enough love? Did I treat my kids horrible? I got phone calls from my son and my one daughter. My other daughter responded to my post on FB where I wished my daughters and my mothers in heaven and my friends a Happy Mother's Day. Her response was" you too." Wow. I know I am feeling sorry for myself but I just thought the one day that is suppose to honor your mom would have been different.

My husband took me for a ride to the beach on his motorcycle and we had lunch and a drink on the roof of Finn's watching the ocean my favorite place. My daughter in law sent me a card and my best friend up North in Cape Vincent.

So am I wrong to want more.

Buyer beware!

Buying this house in Florida has really opened our eyes. Even if you get a house inspection you can really get taken. Like with the septic. We had it inspected and guys says it is in great shape to only after 6 months to find out it was in really bad shape and not up to code. So hope you will be careful and really checkout the house you want to buy because it could have some problems you are not aware of.

Putting in new septic








Well the new septic is half way done. The new sandmound and sod should be in by end of next week. This has been a $10,000 dollar expense we were not prepared for.

Look what a little paint can do!









This is what house looks like now! Big improvement.

Our new house in Florida







This is what house looked like when we bought it. it had some problems also, Plumbing was all cracked and leaking under house. It needed water treatment system, and then 6 months after buying we found it need a new septic system. So above the price of house we have spent $10,000 for septic, $2000 for plumbing and $2500 for water treatment.
