The Witch's Grave

 
 
When you live in a small town, there are always the stories you have heard forever but don't know if they are really true.  Case in point...The "Witch's" Grave.
 
There is a small cemetery outside of our little town that has a strange grave.  The stone is round and looks like it is set upon a camp fire.  The date of death for the woman who is buried there is February 31st and is dated from the late 1800's.  It is all very strange, but it has me thinking.  What if it was a "typo"?  What if she just had eccentric or careless children?  What if she was the lady who went to church every Sunday and sat in her favorite pew and was known for her amazing apple pie?  Who is this lady? 
 
What kind of story will we leave behind when we pass away?  Will it be based on fact or suspicion?  Will it even be based on our life?  Hmmm, some interesting thoughts to ponder.  Maybe I should research it.  If anyone reading this knows anything about the grave, please share.
 
The neighbor boy didn't think we should go visit because "witches are real and they steal your socks!!"  Since this family has a history for losing socks as it is, we gambled and went.  We came back with our socks, but this time I had a lot more questions......

Daybook....

Good Morning, I am linking up with  The Simple Woman's Blog  for the weekly Daybook For today... February 9, 2015 Outside my window .... Chilly (in the 30's for a high) but no snow.  Most of the snow has melted from the warm temps this weekend. I am thinking ... that I had a great, great weekend with my family. I am thankful. .. that my children view each other as important.  We had to plan Lucy's birthday celebration around Katie's work hours because she just started her new job and can't request time off.  Lucy would have never considered celebrating her birthday without her big sis present. I am wearing. .. my sparkly sweater again.  I must need the sparkles to handle a Monday morning. I am creating ... nothing at the moment, but do have some unfinished projects.  My mind has been exhausted lately and I am just chilling and puttering around. I am praying ... for a family decision that could make a huge difference in our live...

It's OK

Time for some grumbling, snarkiness, and maybe a little bad attitude... So who came up with flowered scented dish soap?  Someone who drinks perfume?  This is just so gross. Really. Why must the good foods be fattening?  Why is Coca Cola bad for your weight, health, teeth,etc. but so good for your mood?  I would say that it is just me but the fact it is a billion dollar industry would contradict that, just sayin. Why did God not give me the love of cooking to match my love of eating home cooked foods?   Where do all my socks go? Really, my house is not that big. Is it really necessary to get hot sweats at night?  Wouldn't society be better if the menopausal women at least were well rested?  I think I need a snickers, I am definitely in Diva mode today!!

Welcome back again.....

  Well it's been a minute....lol I feel like my my yearly post is to say I am going to start blogging again, and then never do.   I hope this is the year that consistency is in my wheel house so to speak.  I have again changed career paths.  Not completely though.  I am now the School Librarian in one of local schools. I LOVE IT!  I am looking at utilizing all my degrees in some form or another this year: Teacher cert in Family and Consumer Sciences, Reading Teacher, Library Information Specialist, Psychology, and maybe even Cosmetology.  In know, I know.... it may sound like how? but really, I use all of them every single day,  and I have some ideas on how to use them to benefit more people than those in my inner circle.  I will share more as it develops.  So in my world nothing says back again like a currently post, so here goes: Currently reading: The Unfortunate Side Effects of Heartbreak and Magic by Breanne Randall All the hyp...
