A few weeks ago my neighbor said that her dad had taken down a deer for her and she was having the meat processed and had asked me if I would want to try some. I was game, trying a new meat that could be obtained in a very inexpensive way… Sunday my neighbor brought over two pounds of ground…
Without fail my little men get sick! What is up with that? Between elderberry syrup, fresh air and a clean house I guess I lean on those hoping to keep my little men healthy.

I was feeling a little worried and then dad followed up his statement with, “Well I guess her personal assistant will just drive her to Denver.” Meaning my dad…
Hubby had found me a desk for the boys a few months back on craigslist free and I have had it sitting in the garage. I had primed it and then was having a hard time deciding on a color. I then decided on the color and then had to find the time to get it painted. With hubby out…
