That's kind of the way the South 40 looked after I was done b000sh hawgin' it. Without the houses in the distance.

Difficult avoid houses in the distance if you live in the UK unless you live up a mountain. I take what I have. I worked a lifetime for it and its my peice of heaven!

Hi, sweetie! Did you have a good Sunday evening? You're sleeping now. Rest easy!

I had a lonely weekend...but no whining...its on the list

 

[Missk_2022]

I love those rose gold colored clouds!

It looked like a picture ...camera photos rarely do it justice

 

[B2fromA2looking4U]

Good morning MissK.

I understand completely. I scored dirt where I did because I could, having worked a lifetime to get there. That whole "lifetime" thing sounds dramatic, but isn't it true? We are near a lake so it's a popular area, but we're up the hill, so it's not as popular where we are.


There's a cattle farm just down the road and the old man died, but it's (sadly) out of the price range.

This is a great list! I know I can improve everyone of these and probably about 25 more.

A good reminder, and I’m gonna start with number one today - trying to be more present in the moment!

Happy Monday, Dear!!! Best wishes for you and for your day.

If I can do that one simple thing, the others start to come into line.


The hard part is, don't judge the moment. Likely, we don't have the vision to be correct.

Good morning MissK.

Morning trying to figure out my day. I got told the other day by a co worker that they told the new person on our team that I was "ok at my job" and on the same level as him, but the real "scholar" of the group was our other coworker.....the one that announces out loud that she is a slow learner ..she has a masters degree and that she doesn't understand what people mean when asked a question about our work.....so I am working on being ok today between the meetings that none of them are even invited to, doing work that they don't know how to do, or the multiple assignment cards that are only assigned to me...... not whining but what fucking nerve

As we are on views, this is mine this morning as they took the grass off the field on Saturday

That looks amazing! I can smell the cut grass or hay from here!

As much as I like the long grass fields, I love it when they hay them.

I think I could add a few
11. set healthy boundaries
12. Dont be pulled in to others people bs
13. Not every fight is your fight.
14. If you do something that no one asked you to do---- don't expect praise or thanks
15. You are the author of your own story
16. All of your problems are caused by the person you see in the mirror
17. U r a reflection of the people you surround yourself with
18. Lay down with dogs, wake up with fleas
19. Etc etc etc

Knowing I got lilis back. And the backs or bottoms, or tops of each and every muffin...

That reminds me of that Seinfeld episode, where Elaine came up with the idea of selling just the muffin tops.

Then they got stuck with all the muffin “stumps” and they couldn’t even give the stumps away.

Slightly flawed business plan!

Thanks B2... And may your gas tank be always on full, and your arms and heart be full of love.❤

Isn’t that a very famous Scottish saying??

#1 has been my most difficult challenge especially during my late wife’s cancer and after her passing. But it is mandatory I do so to stay positive.

Tea and ice cream together can cause stones in susceptible people. The tannins in tea cause calcium in ice cream to precipitate out. Phosphorus in dark soda can also precipitate out. Since she appears to be susceptible to kidney stones, it's probably best for her to avoid them.

I love the picture, HDH!

Well you know how much we like our iced tea down in Dixie Land, and it is ice cream season. We did have some blueberry cobbler at my moms with ice cream? Thank you nurse Lili! Our medical professionals in this thread are an encyclopedia of knowledge! I learned more about this subject in two sentences than years of talking to docs!

Glad you like the pics, and here’s today’s installment.

It’s taken me some time to learn to set boundaries but I did after my late wife’s death. I know drama and avoid it as my number one boundary.

Do you live on Drury Lane?

I think Kramer and Newman took them up to Connecticut. In the mail truck.

I know the drunk version May the road not hit you in the face. And May the wind coming at your back be blowing away from your ass. Something like that.

Yeah...people like to suck u in...I have another one.....dont allow yourself to be someone else's emotional crash test dummy

Smell is amazing but the kit they use now clears it so quick. This is a dairy or cattle area so grass all goes to silage.

Yep it’s odd, I was in tears when I took the keys to this place. On our own, 60 feet above the river. Land around is owned by two farmers so I get the benefit without the obligations. No chance of development in this area either!

Nope the one you are thinking of is

All you can do is your job to the best of your ability…..then you have a clear conscience. If they don’t like it, talk about you behind your back or don’t give due credit……walk when you can. If you have experience and are good at your job you will always be marketable…don’t undersell yourself. Above all don’t beat yourself about the actions of others!
