Congrats on your new windows and your canning endeavors!!! We always have such a fun time canning after deer season - it's a group thing for a few of us. The whole sense of net worth when you're done is pretty awesome.

Can't wait to see the finished product on the kitchen! Go you!

You can venison? I've never tried meat!

I will definitely post pictures as the project comes to an end. Everyone will be sick of seeing my kitchen!

Congratulations on finally getting the window in! Yay! So much I haven't been able to keep up with - you even had your birthday! *headdesk* So sorry that passed me by, but I do wish you all the best, and may this coming year be nothing short of amazing. Great start with getting the window in!

I had to go find your journal, because Goddesita wanted to know if I had heard about Helen Keller, and if maybe we could see a play about her life some time? :-) Oh, yes darling. We most certainly can. Have to time things properly, but we should be able to manage that, don't you think? Is there a website, with pics?

I think you are now developing far too many reasons to come visit to deny yourself and your family the visit! Let's see, the space center for your husband and now a daughter interested in Helen Keller. Yup, time to start budgeting for those plane tickets! The play runs on the weekends for the month of June and the first two weekends in July. Here's the website: http://helenkellerbirthplace.org/

Of course you don't have to worry about hotel expenses, as you have a nice place in the country to stay!

I'll be even more so when we're finally done!

I hate to break it to you, but "finally done" is like chasing the end of the rainbow... Fixin' up just keeps going and going, like the Energizer Bunny. Welcome to being "Landed Gentry"!

And - -

Someplace around the 9th I made a note to wish you HB when it was closer. Obviously it was a mental note and I lost it. Hope it was a great one!

Kitchen window - WOW !

As for the sauce - pretty to look at, a heck of a lot of work and time for what eventually tastes so good. Some dreary day in February it will taste like sunshine though!

Good on ya!

That is the truth! We're already plotting out the next job. We still have to redo the back entry way and laundry room, which are right off the kitchen, put in new windows and install exterior sheet rock in the carport, replace all the rest of the windows in the house, finish the remainder of the basement into a family room with a wood burning stove and build a deck/screened porch (we haven't decided which) off the back of the house with access from both the kitchen and living room, which of course will involve new french doors in both rooms. The goal is to have all of this done before Hubby retires, which is in 4 years. That just makes me tired!
