December 31st, 2023, something happened that hadn't happened in a long time. As a matter of fact I don't remember the last time it happened. Usually on New Year's Eve, I'm either sad to see the year end or I'm glad it is over. However, that wasn't the case. I was happy. I'd lost over … Continue reading Reflecting on 2024

Full of the Word
This week has been an awesome time in the Lord. Sunday - Wednesday we had an evangelist at church. I was only able to attend Sunday's services but he made a couple of statements that stuck with me. He talked about face-to-face conversations with God. I don't know of anyone who has had a burning … Continue reading Full of the Word
Retirement
Yesterday was my first day of retirement. All day I kept thinking it was Saturday, so I guess it hadn't quite sunk in yet. I did however, find myself wanting to text my replacement and get a play-by-play of what she was doing. So I'm declaring this as my first official day of retirement. I know … Continue reading Retirement
New Year – New Chapter
It now 2016. It's funny how time repeats it's self as we go through the cycle of life. Ten years ago I was in my first year as a school librarian at a school most teachers can only dream of teaching. We were truly spoiled back then. Twenty years ago I was in my second … Continue reading New Year – New Chapter

We are winning and my man JW Walsh is starting quarterback. I am happy, happy, happy. I am also going to school this year. I am … Continue reading Welcome Back

The last couple of years my classes have been only in the afternoon, leaving me the mornings to prepare and do other library duties. This year my classes start around 11 am and end around 3 pm. Basically, my classes … Continue reading First Day of Classes
Long Time No Blog
Well, it's been awhile since my last post. Where do I begin? First of all, my Oklahoma State Cowboys only lost one game last year, won the Big 12 Championship, beat Oklahoma, and won the Fiesta Bowl. It was an amazing season. Second, I had some health problems coupled with some depression, anger, and discouragement. … Continue reading Long Time No Blog
Cattle Update
We have a baby. My mom sent me a text informing me one of my cows had calved. Keep in mind when we got them they were marked between 2 and 7 months bred. Wrong! We have also lost two cows. One was gassed up pretty bad when she got off the truck and was bleeding. … Continue reading Cattle Update
Catching Up
Well, life has been busy this week. In the last week I've gone to two college football games, a launch party, and a centennial celebration. Last Saturday was my alma mater's, Oklahoma State, season opener against Lousiana. We won 61-34, what great way to start the season. Sunday my church celebrated the launch of our television show. We … Continue reading Catching Up
Back in the Cow Business
My dad called me last week and told me to get ready because he had just place an order for cows. I reminded him of what happen last time we had cows, then proceeded to ask a lot of questions. I like cows. All the time I was growing up we had cows. It's what … Continue reading Back in the Cow Business
