Who is $1.05 Toilet Paper Man? Many have wondered…few know. Imagine if you will…it’s your first day on the job as a clerk in the “variety” section of the local grocery store. Having only ever shopped there before, I was not completely familiar with what all we carried and where it was on the shelves. [...]

peeve [peev] – noun 1. a source of annoyance or irritation: Tardiness is one of mygreatest peeves. 2. an annoyed or irritated mood: to be in a peeve. To those who have known me a loonngg time, it will not come as a surprise that I tend to be a bit opinionated.

I would greet him with a smile and a “Hi! How are you today?” he would grumble at me and usually would find [...]

Way back when, about the time we moved here or maybe before, Rochell was contacted about getting an easement for [...]

OMG…and the drama continues! I noticed after I got ready for work this morning that once again, there were construction vehicles parked in my back yard as well as cell tower parts. So I debated…and ended up picking up the phone and called the Sheriff. I really like Sara, our Sheriff. She talked me down! [...]

Nothing like being woken up at the butt-crack of dawn to bulldozers clearing snow out of my backyard. Normally this is not something I would complain about, but in this case the snow was bulldozed so 2 semi’s full of cell tower parts. ARGH!! We only have two cell phone providers for the rural parts [...]

I told him it had started snowing before I got off work on Saturday and it was continuing through Sunday. I had [...]

I think I’ve been pretty clear up till now, that I’m a “bunny hugger” rather than a “bambi hunter”. And now I live in the Bambi hunting grounds. It is just something I could never do…don’t get me wrong! I’m not saying we should outlaw hunting or anything!!! It’s just that after going to high [...]
