It has definitely turned into winter finally. Small storms have been rolling through, dropping an inch or two and blowing the snow around. With the 15th approaching, that’s the deadline for our BLM allotment. We pay to use the grass until then but that’s dependent on weather and whether the grass isn’t covered by snow….
Collected Stories 17
The following is part of the papers in the Oscar Hoback collection as collected by Edna Greet. With this entry, we will leave Oscar Hoback behind unless I can dig up his letters from the Spanish American War. I have a new set of historical stories to share in the coming weeks! The war then commenced….
Throwback Whoops: Superhero
I was so excited about the grand opening of Ten Sleep School yesterday, I forgot it was Thursday. Here’s my Throwback Thursday post on Friday! This was first posted January 12, 2015. So, I wander from house to studio… Draw a little… Repair a chair… decide I need some great sandpaper to get those corners…
They Did It
I shared photos of the new Ten Sleep School a while back. Well, the Grand Opening was tonight. Students gave us tour information. The students made and served us hors d’oeuvres. The town turned out to see everything. Classrooms are set up and in use. The gym is ready for our first game tomorrow… they…
Wordless Wednesday: Hillside
For a jigsaw puzzle of this snowy hillside, go HERE. Let me know if this is a challenge!
Thanks
My last trip to the physical therapist was today. Whoop, whoop! The guys at Worland Fyzical are amazing. I’ve gone from using a wheelchair to a walker to a cane to nothing. I’ve relearned how to walk without a limp, (who knew your brain keeps telling you to limp even if you don’t have to?)…
Such Fun
Who knew that taking down my outdoor greenery before the snowstorm could be such fun?
Kinda Cool
I had vague plans of teaching the young girls a craft over Christmas holiday. It never worked out. No biggee. But I was prepared. They know how to crochet, but often just create long snakes. I had a plan to teach them how to make a hot pad or placemat. I just finally finished a…
New New
I mentioned in passing that the guys are expanding our corral. Vernon and I started working on it months ago, but as things go, planning and building and ordering supplies… it’s only lately that they’ve picked it up again and pieces are being built. Vernon has hauled a tremendous amount of gravel into the corral….
All is Well
Plan for the day: Load heifer calves onto two semis who will take them to Worland to a feedlot for the winter. They’ll be back in the spring… It sounded so simple, I wasn’t sure I would go help. The guys had gathered them yesterday and tucked them safely in the corral for the night….
Changes
I’ve tried to create my top ten list for 2024, but I have had minor issues with my blog, and creating that list, unfortunately, is one of my difficulties. I’ve hired GoDaddy to work on things, but I haven’t heard about details yet. <big sigh> I’ll also recreate my link to Facebook, cure the comment…
Best Wishes
Best wishes to you and happy new year!
