If I can get it all together in time I will offer the services of 2 "Parsons". MrGee and I are both ordained. I will see if things can be arranged for us to join in the journey...... .............off to locate a wagon........and pack. CeeGee rushing off muttering "now where is that......"

Smiles, cammo, and guns! What more could you want in a vacation! Oh, and Winnie the Pooh! Carolyn

uhmmmmm soft, sweet fish! Oh, you mean to get the smell off your hands? Not rub on the fish!

Here is one that I just found. It leaves your hands feeling soooo good! And it tastes yummy too! Lemonade for Hands..... Pour about a tablespoon of sugar into the palm of your hand Take a wedge of lemon and squeeze the juice over the sugar Gently rub your hands together, making sure to rub the backs of your hands and your fingers, too Then let it set for 5 minutes or so, then rinse

I tell everyone that I started hitting the bottle at an early age.....the Miss Clairol bottle that is!

That six pounds of bisquick I can make for a buck and change. We go through a LOT of ranch dressing mix so that saves us a tremendous amount of money. We use bisquick for biscuits and pancakes, also saving tons of money, considering how much of that we go through. Mo7 Mo7, If you have the time, would you post your recipes? I would love to have a Ranch dressing recipe. Thanks! CeeGee

I wasn't near a computer or library in Wyoming but I am in New Mexico. Very little time today but I wanted to say that I've missed you all and look forward to talking to you all again! Mik

Hi Cat, I haven't seen the Henry the 8th show but I watched the 1900 house and I watch the Red Green show all the time. Kind of silly but thats my style Mik

I remem ber a post in this forum I think about drinking room temp. coke to dissolve kidney stones. I can't find it and wondered if someone either knows or remembers it. Any help would be appreciated. Miki

Hi everyone, I started working at the Holiday Inn In Ft. Pierre, SD about 1 and 1/2 months ago and am continuing the carbohydrate addicts diet(since Oct of 02). I've lost 9 pounds since I started in housekeeping and a total of 29 pounds since Oct. Housekeeping in a hotel is the best exercise I've ever gotten and getting paid is a plus! Is it fun? No!!! It's very tiring but the results are great. I think wherever we stop next, I'll try to get a job riding horses or something I'd at least like. Well that's my 2 cents worth. We leave here in about a week and a half for Wyoming. I'll post an update in Sunporch. Everyone have a great day! Your Best Days Are Ahead! Mik

Hi, In the humour me index!

I know I'm a little slow on the uptake since I only get to the library once or twice a week. Sorry! I tag Debbielee. She has a great sense of humour to me. A little on the wry side, which I like a lot. It's not fair to tag just one because everybody here is so nice! See you all soon. Mik

That's a wonderful description! I think that's how i did think of myself when I had a home and did canning and stuff. I'm not sure how I think of myself now. Mik

Hi Debbielee, It's a lot of fun but it has its challenges. It's not easy to get a new job every few months. At least i don't have to work but sitting in a 25 ft rv can get boring fast. If I don't find something here in Pierre, I'll just go to the community center and find something to do volunteering or something. The trans. in the van had to be rebuilt again but we're getting some money back from the guy in TX who did a bad job. This time it's good!! Any way the travel is what I thought it would be (great) but I didn't know what all the trade-off would be. Very little money for things or entertainment. I'm not whining. I'm just learning to be more creative with what I have! Mik Your Best Days are Ahead!

Hi Snowmom, I guess what I thought was the Great Plains was really Sandhills,huh? It was very beautiful. I know people think that of FL but allI see is billboards and I'm thankful there are few of them here! We are supposed to go to Bowbells,ND but I'm not sure when. We just got to Pierre,SD yesterday and found a park to stay at for $6 a day. Talk to you soon----Miki Your Best Days Are Ahead!

Hi everyone, First, Reci, I'm so sorry about your loss and your illness. We've all had losses and it never gets easier to handle. I'll pray for you and yours as a loss usually affects everyone around you. We stopped here to see about work and DH is on another computer right now. I won't have a problem but I can't look until he finds something. We may go to Oglala or continue on to SD is nothing here. We've seen a large number of homeless people for this size town. On the way here we saw a pair of pheasants, a gopher and a live skunk( usually just see the dead ones). I didn't know there were hills in Kansas or Nebraska but there are and it was a beautiful drive! My love to all. More later Miki

Hi everyone, I haven't been around much because the transmission went out on the van and it took time to get it out and rebuilt but God took care of all the details as He always does! We leave for SD tomorrow with a new trans., new u-joints(whatever they are) and a new rear main seal. I feel like we've been here about a month too long as it's been real hot. Way too many insects here, too. Killed a small tarantula on the van the other day, large centipede in the shower, and have seen several scorpions. The cute thing (and thats using the term cute loosely) was a small herd-6 to 10- of baby granddaddy longleg spiders heading down my walking path. I'll miss my line dancing class. Now that I'm getting the steps I'll have plenty of time to forget them. I wonder where we'll stop. We were headed for New Mexico when we stopped in Texas. There are places in Nebraska and North Dakota that look good so we'll see where God stops us. It's fun learning to really listen to Him! I look forward to hearing from everyone or anyone. I'll stop at libraries along the way when possible. I actually got to do some photos for the local animal shelter where i volunteer. It was during a fundraiser and it was fun and they turned out well. I have 4 rolls of film and 1 roll of slides to develop. I hope to work on a ranch cooking for people or taking care of animals but I'll take what I can! If anyone has a suggestion I'm sure I'll be open. I'll let you know when I get somewhere in case anyone lives nearby. Thanks for listening Miki Your Best Days are Ahead!

Here we go: babysitter ice cream shop housecleaning bowling center-font desk bartender waitress lay sod shovel asphalt police dispatcher criminalistics tech. photographer home health aide pizza maker cust. service mgr.-Walmart cashier school crossing guard health support tech -health dept(drove immunization bus) I always thought it was important to be as adaptable as poss. so I could get a job any where. currently being a nomad-one who wanders aimlessly!

Debbielee, You definitely have the most unique view! Good luck. I guess the rest of your day has to be uphill from there. Miki

I see 2 hummingbirds at the dining room window feeding on a bush right outside. I think one is a baby, it's very little and cute! Miki

Hi there, I just read your post and I'm sure it's difficult at this point. Having been gone for a few months and just returning, the last post I read about your step daughter was in October and it sounds like you've made a lot of headway since then! I'm sure it's hard to see on a daily basis so I thought I'd give a different perspective. Miki

I love jokes about the Florida State Bird. Mik

I have very little time today(came with dh). All is well. I found a free exercise class and a line dancing class for $1. Both are twice a week. This will help keep me busy. I hope everyone is doing well< I don't even have time to see. Miki

Thank you all for letting me know about Dr. Atkins fall. i don't get the paper out here in TX and I must have missed it on the news. Miki

Thanks for the moral support Ginger! I feel good and have a little more energy than i did. Miki
