A troublesome question for my blog readers..

       As I mentioned in my last blog, I have been watching way too much television lately. I don't usually pay much attention to the commercials but a few have caught my eye lately and I have been giving them much thought. I guess I am really out of the loop, because I hadn't heard of this plague that has apparently been causing a lot of issues for many people, according to the number of advertisements I have seen. Frankly, I hardly dare go outside any more, lest I come across one of the bad boys.
       I am sure there are many readers out in "Blog-land" that are by far more sophisticated and aware then I am. Perhaps you can fill me in on what it is exactly I should be looking for, so I can protect myself and my family from the potential dangers that are associated with these terrible creatures.
      According to the commercials, these beasts seem to stalk middle aged people, and they can do it inside their home, in the middle of a walk, or even while taking a bath. That one really scared me. I make sure to always lock the bathroom door now, when I take a shower. I don't know if they can get you while in a shower, but I sure as heck am not taking any chances.
      I made sure Cliffy saw the commercial the other day, in case he sees one before I do. We both watched the evening news with Brian Williams, to see if they had a news story on about the critters, but nothing. Just the commercials. I guess they figure that will be enough to get the word out. I hope so, for all the middle aged couples out there. We could be in big danger, if it isn't.
       Every time Cliffy and I go to town, we scour the horizon, looking for one, but therein lies the trouble. Despite all the commercials we have seen, they have never shown what one of the little devils looks like. I guess either they are nocturnal, and only come out at night...Or maybe they are still rare, like Bigfoot, and Nessie, and there aren't a lot of them around. Maine does have cold temperatures..I hope that's enough to save us from the devious buggers.
      So, dear readers, perhaps you can help me..Help me prepare in case of an attack. So I can be ready, and have my family ready. Perhaps one of you can tell me...


Is this one of those "Dysfunctional Reptiles??"

Wait..I think they are actually called "Reptile Dysfunction"..that must be the Latin term. If this is one of those things, we are in big trouble! My family is being stalked by them..see the proof!

Brogan has one watching her from the tree!!

RUN LIAM RUN!


EVEN CLIFFY AND I! AHHH!!
SO, if you think this is what one of those so called "Dysfunctional Reptiles" looks like..let me know. I will get a couple rounds in the gun, just in case. Thanks!

Real Housewives of Bridgton Maine

A REAL HOUSE WIFE OF BRIDGTON MAINE     I don't usually watch much television, but lately have found myself flipping through the channels for a couple hours before bed. I can not say I am a fan of any of the "Real Housewives of BLANK", but have seen enough of a few of them to know one thing...Their lives are not very real. Or, perhaps, maybe it is just that my life is so very "unreal". Let me show you what I mean and you can decide.     First of all, these ladies live in such clean houses. With Kids. And an occasional pet. I wake up in the morning, and have at least 2 dogs on my bed and there is no "teacup" anything. I feel a warm breath on my back at night and know it isn't Cliffy, but the 100 pound behemoth dog wedged between us. And no cutesy names here like "Mr Gibbs" or "Fluffy"..we have cats with substantial names..you know like Stewbeef, and Muffinhead.        My youngest is a big fan of the military. I can often

Granny Nightgowns..NOT just for sleeping.

Baking (and sampling) can also be done in a granny..      I love my granny nightgowns. I am sure there are lots of people that do. Mine are a lot more then nightwear however. They serve several purposes for me. They are casual wear, lounge wear, even business wear. They are mostly plaid, and when they are all clean and stacked up on my shelf where I keep them, they look like a "Gathering of the Clans" in Scotland. I do have a few flowered models, as well . I also have a wide variety to choose from. I have some that are floor length, mid calf, and some knee length. All, very sexy.       I can usually be found in a granny nightie from 7pm until 10-11 am, and perhaps on a Sunday, all day. I think I inherited my love of flannel from my Aunt Dorothea. She could often be found running the vacuum around in the afternoon, still granny clad. I know I didn't inherit it from my mother, who, A) doesn't wear granny nighties, and B) cringes every time she hears of someone new

The Blessing

          This is a very different blog today, as I share something that happened to me this past Sunday. It is something I still am trying to wrap my mind around, so please bear with me as I try to find just the right words. It was amazing, moving, wonderful, and awe inspiring all at the same time, and to be honest, I am still in the process of understanding it. Here is my best description, as I recall it.   Early morning cleaning and mowing..My grandparents stone in the back corner            Sunday was a warm, partly sunny day, and drier then it has been, so I decided to mow the lawns. My mother's mower was in the shop, so I decided to start in the family cemetery..Homeland Cemetery, located in the back of our hay field. I rode over on the mower, and started mowing, saying hello to all the relatives that are buried there. As I mowed, I noticed the deer had been munching on the geraniums we had planted on Memorial weekend. Several plants had just stalks sticking up, and
