Filling Orders to Bring Home the Bacon

Posted by Lori | May 30, 2008 .

Since we are jobless, my husband’s bit & spur trade has come in quite handy! We have several orders to fill with the first set being Texas Ranch Outfitters (he’s on ebay). My man also has some bit orders too which is great because he likes building bits more than spurs.
While things are still a [...]

Posted by Lori | May 26, 2008 .

We always said if we had kids they would be born with little hiking boots on their feet and packs on their backs. We wouldn’t ever give in to “gender specific marketing”. If we had a girl, we would get her soldiers, and a play toolbox, and a boy would surely get a kitchen set [...]

FFOA?

Posted by Lori | May 22, 2008 .

Fixin’ fence is just one of many jobs a cowboy has to do on the ranch and almost always, my man comes home with scratches all over his hands from doing it. I thought it was just him at first but after fixin’ fence myself, I know exactly how easy it is to cut yourself. [...]

Posted by Lori | May 20, 2008 .

So after yesterday’s crying and rants, I’ve had time to settle down and think and reflect. I wanted to thank everyone for their kinds words of encouragement, prayers, and even the ones that ranted right along with me. I also got some critisism about my language yesterday and I only have two things to say. [...]

Pimped Wigged Out!

Posted by Lori | May 16, 2008 .

Kind of a lame title I know but the topic at hand is wigs. My post lady who is currently undergoing radiation, went through chemo 4 years ago. She was quite embarrassed when she lost her hair and if it wasn’t for wigs, she would have never left the house.
I can’t imagine going through something like [...]
