My father in law calls his 44 acre stocked lake a pond. I define a pond as a small dirty body of water that are usually dug for horses. I forgot that he called it “the Pond”.

His sister pulled a 18# big mouth Bass out of his pond a couple of weeks ago.

I was nominated by Jennifer of giddy sap or Quirk’n It, for the VIBA award. I love her blog. In order to have one, I have to write 7 things that people don’t know about me. I will keep it short so as not to lose your attention. 1. I had 22 staples removed from…
Most people fall into a broad category of terms to define who they are. Words I’d use to describe myself would differ greatly from how others would describe me. We all make assumptions on appearance or on a career choice or what schools we attended. The characteristics that are familiar in anyone I meet, I…
I was asked by my Rabbi if I wished to say something wonderful about my daughter during her Bat Mitzvah. For him to ask me…was a standard question. But for me, it was akin to asking me to fight dragons. Public speaking or fighting dragons is a toss up as far as which I would…
