Family Moss and What is Broke Again!

My aunt gave me some moss that has been in our family since well before I was born.  It was originally at my Great Great Aunt's house and there is no telling when or where she got it....

 

 

 

 

I sincerely hope it lives for future generations, in remembrance of the Winters' Girls (as hubby calls us).

 

Now on to my whinny post moment...

 

I came home from house/animal sitting the largest domestic pets in the world (I believe), here is one example...

 

 

to find this waiting for me...

 

  

 

Boo went to CAP camp.... Have been crying and/or angry (hubby is debating sedation) ever since he left.  I know he is 16 but in my heart he will always be my oldest baby!  He was so excited, I had to let him go...  I feel very sorry for his wife, I will NOT be a good mother-in-law.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Benji, Bentley and I have been entertaining ourselves with Alvin and the Chipmunks, games and cookies till he gets home.

 

Did you hear my upstairs central air conditioner broke awhile back?  Well, guess what, it happened again!  It was temporarily fixed today....waiting on an apparent very special part.

 

 

While I was reeling from that, this morning my washing machine started choking and could possibly be a goner....  The repairman will be here Friday to let me know.

 

 

The roof has still not been replaced, waiting on estimates....that could be a good thing since Sunday there was some huge hail here, again!  We will deal with this over the next few weeks.  I now know the term domestic goddess truly applies when you get excited over a roof!  Not even a tin one in the rain, just a regular roof that mother nature has not beat up!

 

I have to say a word about Steve McNair, I know some people are judging him for his lifestyle at the end of his life...but I liked, and yes even respected him.  He was a true warrior on the field, generous to the state of Tennessee and exceptionally nice to my boys, for that I am grateful.  #9 you will be missed....

Hi Sweety! So glad to see you back and thanks for stopping by my blog for a visit :o)

Lots of stuff falling apart and breaking and such going on over there--what the heck?! Hopefully you are getting all of your bad luck out of the way for the whole year and it's gonna be nothing but smooth sailing from here on out!

I feel your Mommy tears about sending your son to camp--here's a (((hug))).

Ummm--family MOSS? Ok, that's a new one on me, LOL--it sure is pretty though!

Smiles, Karen

I hope that washing machine isn't on the outs! I've always wanted a front loader. (I never thought I'd write that line!)

Our family has had a Sansevieria (mother-in-laws tongue or snake plant) that we have divided and passed on for 55 years!
