Beyond The Stones

After a loooong hiatus from blogging I am slowly going to be coming back.  Why you ask?  Well, I recently moved to San Antonio, TX and after spending all day on the phone I decided it was time to start blogging about my adventures in Texas and the trip to Texas over the last 3 months…some good, some not so good!!

What a long strange trip it’s been…holy cow, moses, or shit, whichever you want to pick.

Stay tuned!!!!

I am from Lincoln, Nebraska, I have always been a Husker Fan, but did you guy’s even show up for the game?…..sadly I stopped watching right before half time, I knew this game wasn’t going anywhere when Wisconsin scored 2 touchdowns in less than 4 mins…BIG disappointment.

Blowout loss leaves Huskers shell-shocked – College Football Nation Blog – ESPN.

I’m Thankful for……

Thanksgiving is the appointed time
for focusing on the good in our lives.
In each of our days,
we can find small blessings,
but too often we overlook them,
choosing instead to spend our time
paying attention to problems.
We give our energy
to those who cause us trouble
instead of those who bring peace.
Starting now,
let’s be on the lookout
for the bits of pleasure in each hour,
and appreciate the people who
bring love and light to everyone
who is blessed to know them.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Just want to let all my fans know (which is 0 at the moment lol) that we are moving to a new house this weekend, so my posting time is very limited unfortunately.  I still have some packing to do and so forth.

I’ve almost convinced myself that I’m a aspiring hoarder, not really, but when I go through things, it’s like why do I keep this stuff, it just blows my mind.  So for this move I have literally gotten rid of a ton of stuff, actually donated it to the Disabled Vets.  My problem is when I’m out at flea markets or garage sales I look at something and go…”I can use this”, and then I never do, so I’m pretty much done with that.  Unless I find something I just can’t live without and can find a legitimate reason for it’s use, but from here on out it has to be something really special that I just absolutely can’t live without, not even sure at this point if there is such an item…

I’ve pretty much decided that my next move is going to be in with my kids (oh dear) or a nursing home, I so dislike moving.  It’s not that I have to do the actual moving, but I have to sort things out, then pack it all and when I say “all” I mean just that, for some reason I seem to be the only one that knows how to pack a box.

I’m actually pretty good at packing boxes though, we moved a lot when I was a kid, seems like my Mom moved every time the house got dirty.  Personally I’d rather stay in one place and clean as opposed to moving.  I think, however, moving is harder on my dogs than it is on me, I don’t have to sniff around the yard for an hour to find a potty spot that’s all mine.  They will be very clingy for a few days, but they already are sort of, they follow me everywhere.  My favorite time of the day is Doggy Nap Time, for two hours in the afternoon I am totally left alone, of course I don’t dare move out of my chair because one of them takes her nap beside me in the chair, but that’s ok, I’m thinking that’s going to be good blogging time.

Of course when I find out I’m moving I look for the closest coffee shops in the area, oh and Chinese Food places, my two vices, I’m in luck, there are several in the area I’m moving to, I’m so excited.

So, I will try and get back to blogging as soon as I can and of course if I find some time before the move I will post.

Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed day.
