"My greatest wealth is the deep stillness in which I strive and grow and win what the world cannot take from me with fire or sword."~Johann Wolfgang VonGoethe
I am an eclectic listener. I have music that spans from Spirit Flutes to ICP. It depends on the mood I'm in at the time. I don't appreciate new head banging/don't understand the words/ screeching guitar music or some rap music.
Somewhere In Time, My Dog Skip, Second Hand Lions, The Others, Dragonfly, Sixth Sense, The Lakehouse.
BOOKS
I'm as eclectic in books as I am in music. I cannot go into a book store without spending a fortune. I am an avid reader and usually have several books I am reading at the same time. I am currently reading Confessions of a Ghost Hunter by Troy Taylor, Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen, and We are Their Heaven by Allison DuBois.
HOBBIES
Cemetery photography, ghost hunting, reading, activities outdoors like biking, hiking, fishing, camping, swimming, etc., traveling (when I can), and working (which takes up most of my time).
I am a positive, open minded individual that loves with her whole heart and soul. I have been blessed with three children and a wonderful husband who loves me for who I was, who I am, and who I want to become. I still wish on stars, howl at the moon, smile at seeing a rainbow, and love the feel of sand between my toes.
TURN ON'S
Positivity, laughter, the beauty of nature, a clear blue sky, the sound of crickets in a field on a warm night, the smell of rain, my children's smiles, and my husbands arms around me.
TURN OFF'S
Negativity, Rudeness, the so called "heirarchy" of social status, and ignorant people with closed minds.
Just stopping by to say hi. I think we are going to head up north to our land for the weekend, after we close the shop on Saturday. It will be so nice to get away. It's been awhile. I'm so looking forward to it. We still have a lot of work to get done on our new camper we have been building. It will be fun to take both Otis and Baxter with us. Otis just loves it and I'm sure Baxter will also. It will be all new to Baxter. I sure hope he likes camping as much as Otis does. Hope you have a wonderful weekend. Hugs, Vicky
Hi, Just stopping by to say hi. I know I'm ready for the weekend also. I think it's going to be a working weekend though. Oh well. We have been so busy at the shop. We get our new boxer puppy, Baxter tomorrow after we close the shop. I just can't wait. We had plans to have the whole weekend off, until a lady came into the shop at the end of the day today and wants us to go look at her mothers estate up north. She needs everything moved out by next weekend. It's going to be a little over an hours drive, so we will have to take our trailer with us to start loading right away. I guess Otis and Baxter will be coming with us. I can't leave the new baby home all day long by himself. I just don't know where to turn anymore. LOL. It sure keeps us busy. I thought the older a person got the easier life was, but boy was I wrong. Hopefully in a few weeks we will be able to get away to spend some time up north at our land. Hope your weekend will be nothing but relaxing. Have a safe one. Hugs, Vicky
Just stopping by to say hi and catch up with everyone. It's been a long month here, sorry I haven't been around to much. It's been just crazy here. Things are starting to look up a bit. My dad got out of the hospital recovering from a small heart attack, my mom is home recovering from her first heart attack after two weeks in the hospital. Hopefully things will go better now that we have them both back at home again. My mom has a long road ahead of her, but God willing things will go good for her, I don't think she will ever be back to normal, but she's doing ok.
Phil took me up north Sunday, to try to get some more work done on our camper we are building and darned if I didn't pull my back out again. Heck, this too will get better. I still had a nice day, and it felt good to just get away. Hope all is going well with you. Hope you have a wonderful week. Hugs, Vicky
Just stopping by to say hi. I'm still so excited about the video and EVP that were gotten in my shop. It's been a busy week for me. If you haven't had time to check out my newest blog, please feel free, the video and EVP are great I think. I'm doing much better, still the back is a little weak, but so much better. I have another ghost hunt coming up this weekend. I can't wait. It will be a new team coming into my shop. I have already met a few of them. I'm so hoping for a great night. Hope all is going well for you and that you will have a great week. Hugs, Vicky
Just stopping by to say hi. Hope you had a great weekend and that your week has started out good. I had a ghost hunt over the weekend. I think it went really good. I have posted two new blogs on it, please feel free to stop by and read them if you have time. It was a great ghost hunt.
I have also posted new pictures of Otis on my page. If you have time feel free to check them out. Hope you have a great week. Hugs, Vicky
The week has been beautiful so far. The snow is melting. I can only hope for spring. I think it might be getting close. I know we have had snow up to the middle of May that I can remember and I sure hope we don't have a repeat of that one. I'm going to keep dreaming happy dreams of sunshine. No flooding yet either. How wonderful. I have a ghost hunt coming up this weekend with HPI. I can't wait. I have so missed the ghost hunts. I'll let everyone know how it went sometime on Sunday with a blog, so please be watching for it. It's going to be a sleep over. Oh boy, I just can't wait. Hope your week has been going as good as mine. Have a great weekend also. I know I'm early with that, but I'm going to be busy for the rest of the week.
I just wanted to stop by and say hi. The other night I went to my brothers house and my two brothers and I all went in the hot tub while it was snowing. It was great to sit out in the hot tub with snow falling on our head and not even being cold. I just loved it. It was a great family night with my two great brothers also. I guess a person can still have some fun in the dead of the winter. Hope you have a wonderful weekend. Hugs, Vicky
