Untie
I read a quote not long ago "Don't cut what you can untie". At the time, it just meant to not cut the pretty ribbon, to untie it and save it. I have a drawer full of ribbons, twine, cords and wire that I have untwisted and saved. I use most of them. Some I am saving...
Summer Sale
I am having a summer sale! It is 107 degrees in central Texas today. I am so ready for cooler temperatures! Come September 1st, I don’t care if it is 110 degrees outside, I will be putting a fall wreath on our gate. I am almost giddy thinking of fall and all that...
Family
I have a family reunion coming up in September. I haven't been to one in years. I was always too busy, couldn't take time off from work or just couldn't get away. I feel ashamed that I didn't take the time. In the past five years, both of my parents have passed away,...
Inspired by nature
My motto for my fat cow studio is "Inspired by the country life". But it is more inspired by nature that comes with living in the country. I have always loved the outdoors, fresh air, flowers, animals and insects..(to a point). This past year I decided to take my...
Home

Roots of my raising
I was on my way to work early this morning, listing to old country music station. A song came on that I haven't heard in years. It was "The roots of my raising" by Merle Haggard from 1976. In 1976, I was graduating from high school and listening to the Eagles,...
Welcome to my new website!
My first blog on my new website! I loved my old website, it served me well. But, sometimes you have to shake things up a bit. Bring in some new energy, clear away stagnant sentiments. Start anew. I love my website team at Greenfox Marketing. Tanner, Amy and Melissa...
Ebb and Flow
There is an ebb and flow to life. Highs and lows. Some days we are just so grateful for everything, some days, not so much. During times of the lows, it is easy to stay down, to just give in to the feeling of sadness, loneliness, grief, resentment and even anger. All...
It looks like rain.
It looks like rain. Something we haven't seen in our small town in months. My husband told me the old rancher guys would say, while drinking their coffee at the local gas station/diner, "We are one day closer to rain!" We will welcome the relief from the blistering...
Sixty
My 60th birthday is coming up rapidly. I remember when my grandmother turned 60. I thought she was so old! Even though she was a very vibrant red head with red lipstick and sassy attitude. I t seems like I just turned around, and I am hitting 60. I think it is the...
