Here’s my mailbox, painted by the untrained, as of yet unfamous arteest, Me, er myself! Hehehe!! That wonderful man, working on said mailbox is my husband, whom I feel so-so lucky to have found. He knows my secrets, my downfalls, my moods, and yet he still loves me! (not a great picture of him, the subject was the mailbox!)
After doing the mailbox we got three five gallon buckets of fresh corn from our garden! It made three quarts of whole kernel corn, and 6 bags of corn that we froze on the cob for dinners, plus we gave away four cobs, and ate another seven with our dinner! Diane learned to shuck corn tonight! And she watched me blanch, and get the corn ready for Clyde to cut the corn off the cob for me! I also froze four quarts of zuchinni tonight!! That was after making bread and muffins this morning. It was a good day!! I like days like today!!!
More pics: Corn from our garden and onto our dinner table. (notice I’m baking so much now I buy baking powder in the five pound container, whew!!)

This website is an attempt to share the knowledge she has gained about her family ties with others who may be interested in the same things. She does not guarantee 100% accuracy and does hope that you will send corrections. To learn more about her, click the "about" button in the page menu. Thanks!
Another goal of this website is to disseminate a message (i.e. education) about domestic violence, child abuse, and all forms of sexual abuse to society at large. The message comes from real experience from the whole spectrum of the violence from sexual abuse by a perpetrator to sexual abuse perpetrated by a husband, to the abuse of children within the family. Peggy has seen it, lived it, and been hurt by it. There will on occasion be details that might be hard for some people to read, and a warning is usually posted at the beginning of the essay so that those who want to turn and not read may do so. The only way to teach and to let others learn what to avoid is to SHARE what happened with every detail necessary to make the point. Thank you.
