Verbosity: Kids and Grandkids...
http://leslieisverbose.blogspot.com/2015/06/kids-and-grandkids.html
Because I always have something to say, but don't always have someone to listen. Wednesday, June 10, 2015. Once again, I strenuously objected and said, “Well, go ahead and take it down, but you’ll just have to put it back up again because when we have grandkids, I AM GOING TO HAVE GOATS BECAUSE I WANT THEM TO KNOW ABOUT TAKING CARE OF ANIMALS! But I won’t digress in that direction…. Bless my heart, he agreed! However, their needs and emissions, shall we say, are too voluminous for the space allotted....

Verbosity: June 2015

Because I always have something to say, but don't always have someone to listen. Thursday, June 25, 2015. Today was a long, hot day. Though we divide the fields into equal acreage for each day, we are finding that the last day of our rotation is lasting longer than the others…So far, we don’t know why. And when we finally finished tonight, it was too hot to do much deep thinking, or math, especially, to figure it out. I love it that they take care of each other…I am so grateful for them. This picture ill...

Verbosity: Another one in the books...
http://leslieisverbose.blogspot.com/2015/07/another-one-in-books.html
Because I always have something to say, but don't always have someone to listen. Wednesday, July 22, 2015. Another one in the books. 8230;as well as one FOR the books! Though we didn’t set a record for earliest start this year, we did set one for earliest finish. We were all done on July 21…three days earlier than our previous record of July 24, 1992. When Weatherman Rufus said this year would be like 1992, he was right on! Still, we ended up with a lot of this:. Our last day of packing was Thursday....

Because I always have something to say, but don't always have someone to listen. Monday, June 23, 2014. A Different Kind of Thrift Store Find. The other day, I stopped at the Thrift Store for some entertainment and noticed this stack of old portraits. They caught my eye because the sepia tones, and clothing of the subjects, reminded me of photos my mom had of myself and my sister. These kids must have been from my era…I wondered if they were any one I knew. These are the McKenzie children: Louis – ...

Because I always have something to say, but don't always have someone to listen. Thursday, January 29, 2015. It's the Dead of Winter. Author's Note: Blogger and I are not getting along when it comes to posting pictures.so you'll have to imagine cute pictures of sleepy little Frenchtons as you read this.And just be thankful that I didn't feel the need to make up for the 1000 words each picture is worth. As usual, I didn’t think it was going to happen, BUT…the winter doldrums have. By causing terrible, ter...

Verbosity: May 2014
http://leslieisverbose.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Because I always have something to say, but don't always have someone to listen. Monday, May 5, 2014. In which I risk saying too much. Yesterday I turned another year older, and today I have gone all introspective about life. Actually, that’s not true. I should admit that I’ve gone all introspective for a few weeks now, and thus my absence from the blog. And it worked…for February. I hardly care about a thing. I have no idea why I am so apathetic about life, and all the usual things that interest me....

Verbosity: Hot and Tired, and Tired of Hot...
http://leslieisverbose.blogspot.com/2015/07/hot-and-tired-and-tired-of-hot.html
Because I always have something to say, but don't always have someone to listen. Wednesday, July 8, 2015. Hot and Tired, and Tired of Hot. I don’t recall having a heat wave during any harvest that has lasted as long as this one has. I can’t tell you how thrilled we are to have the temperature only reach the 80’s yesterday and again today. And we can’t tell you because we are all too tired to rejoice in any way that requires exertion. I think we can safely say that this year will be categorically BAD.

Verbosity: December 2014

Because I always have something to say, but don't always have someone to listen. Wednesday, December 17, 2014. I have a love/hate relationship with decorating for Christmas. In the earliest years of my career as a homemaker, I would not allow myself to decorate until December 1, which I considered the official start of Christmastime. It was hard to wait. And when it’s done, I feel so satisfied…because I like having decorated. As opposed to decorating. While my sister is busy creating a Winter Woodland, a...
