Cyber Monday and other things.

I don't get it. Cyber Monday is supposed to be all about buying online but I think with Brown Thursday added in - it just might get washed under the bridge. I personally have not bought a single thing online but it's really not my thing.

A lot of things have changed with our little home. I'm not looking forward to the cold weather eventhough we don't have much space to heat - a measly 336 square feet. I have found lots of websites of other couples who have downsized. We have downsized for economic reasons. It's cheaper living and less house work(haha). I hated having to try to clean a big 5 bedroom house. It's so much easier now.   

If you haven't seen the picture of our home then you aren't missing much. I would just like to say that if there is one pitfall that small living has is the loud tv. My husband loves to have the tv on loud, as loud as it will go, and our 50 inch can get quite loud which can make it hard to concentrate or talk to someone on the phone.

After settling in, one of the first and best things we got accomplished was these step's put in for front door. We had bought these online through Facebook for $65.00. They came with the non-skid carpet already attached. It was one of the best buys my husband has gotten so far. It took 4 men to load it onto a trailer and 4 men to take it off but only 1 to move it into place. Thanks to our neighbor across the road who used his small tractor and did it in a matter of about an hour. 
As you can see in this (below)picture we have a new weenie dog, actually we have 3 of them. This one is Elvis chowing down on some food in their food bowl.
 Our black and brown dachshound, Lulu even likes the steps.
As we make more changes, I will post more 
pictures of our new abode.

Mobile Blogging

I finally downloaded Blogger App on my iPhone so this is my first post using my phone. I am amazed at how much stuff this little handheld device can do. Technology is advancing faster than what I can keep up with. I love the simple life with all these new gadgets and Gismo's to make life easier. I will tell you more about that later.

July 7th

It's only a couple of days after the 4th of July and only a couple of days until the passing of my father 26 years ago. Life has changed so much and so has my life. I think I will start a new blog and let this one go to start fresh. I need a new outlook on life and as soon as I get my new computer I will start a new blog.

In the mean time I though I would share some pictures. This first one is my new home. Not much but it is enough.
This is Elvis. He is the love of my new life. He took Red's place but more about that later or you could browse through my past blogs to find him.

This is Missy. She is so sweet.

This is Baby. She is about 5 lbs smaller than her brother and sister and she is a baby.

Left to Right: Missy, Elvis and Baby

A bigger picture but harder to see.

Thanks for looking and let me know what you think.
Later, Lisa
