Country Fact of Life...

We live in the country.  There are regular sewer lines in very few places
here on the north shore.
If you live in any type of "older" home, chances are you have either a
septic tank or a cesspool.  We happen to have a cesspool.  We've had it
checked and it's fine.  If we had done the construction, we would have had
to put in a septic tank, which are about $14,000 total. So needless to say
we still have the original one. We "feed" it yeast once a month, and watch
what goes down it.  Seems to be just happy!

So a regular sight out here are the pump trucks. Just a fact of life.
Keep the Country Country!

Keep Calm...

I decided I just might have to send away for this. 
Funny how something from the 1930's is so important today.
Maybe have it printed on sticky notes just to stick everywhere.

New Year's Thoughts...

"Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right." ~Oprah Winfrey
This year I've decided...
to keep in touch more
be a better sister
look forward without the worry of court dates
give more service
enjoy the beauty of this place
when things look the worst, try to look for the best
make sure that those that I care about know how much they mean to me
be more at peace
