Mud Blogging
Tweet I don’t know much about blogging except that it’s just another internet information tool that seems to be more on a personal level (I had to do some internet school housin’ to learn more about it). But I do know about mud bogging! After three days of rain and soggy wet weather, I got…

Tis the Season to be Hairy
Biting wind and freezing temperatures forewarn me it’s going to happen, but when my husband decides to grow a beard, it takes me a while to warm up to the idea. I’m often resistant to the changes of his facial hair even though I like the end result. By the time I get used to…

Red Neck Mother’s Day
Of all the Mother’s Days I’ve been fortunate enough to have, my most memorable one isn’t recalled with fondness. It’s known as my Redneck Mother’s Day.
