Knowledge is Power

June 8th, 2010 Posted in Welcome to Blogging with Pamie G.

Did you know that the charger (plugged in to the outlet) sitting on your counter while your phone is in your purse is still drawing power? I read this this morning in our Power company’s co-op magazine. I think I need to really take a good look around to conserve energy! Knowledge “is” power!! Thank you Pedernales Power Company!

Where are you?????

So where are all the “Save the Gulf” concerts? Where are the T.V. Benefits with celebrities and musicians giving heart felt speeches on the poor fisherman, wildlife, beaches, loss of income and sabotaged gulf economy? I find it rather strange how these people (including our own government) are so quick to help Haiti and other countries..but sit on their behinds for this one.

I have fallen in love with orange!! The flower arrangement from Kirklands on sale for $10, strawberries from antique shop about 15 years ago, Blue Willow dishes, Tuesday Morning, about ten years ago, Coffee Pot and creamer/sugars and Tea Jar from Tokyo, Japan and Hong Kong on one of my shopping trips at duty free shops, ruffled placemats from Tuesday Morning and black tray with fleur-de-lis is from what used to be called “Southern Living At Home” but has changed their name to “Willow House”!
Who does not love Poppies?!?!?

Today is work day…

I find that writing down all I have to accomplish helps me to get most of it done. Today is the first mowing day for our new grass. In between that and watering it in, I will walk my three miles and return to plant some things that are barely living in their pots, sad…not enough time to accomplish everything!
