Memory a Month // August 2020

Ready for Memory A Month? *laughs and covers mouth* I've a good one this time!

Picture Removed By Author

Can you guess what happening in this picture? *laughs* This was six years ago, when my family was moving into a new house. (We've moved a lot. This is the third house we had moved to. The house we live in now is our sixth house seance I was born.) My Uncle and Aunt and their kids came to help us move. Moving, besides the sad fact you will never see your house again, has always been fun and a adventure. I have many memories in the house we moved to in this picture, even though we were there only a very short time. I can remember playing "town" in our sheds out back. There were two of them, and one would be the store and one the post office/ telegraph office. Or one the Sheriffs office and jail, and the other the sables. The possibilities were endless! But I've taken a rabbit trail here. Back to the picture. Has any of you tried to pop a Mosquito? You know, when one bites you, you flex you muscles tight and the 'skitter can't pull back out or stop drinking your blood? If you can do it long enough, the skitter will drink so much it pops! Gross, I know. But I don't know if we've ever succeeded at it. It's Hard! Trust me. The strain from holding your muscles so tense gets you faster then the skitter can drink. SO, that's what's happening here. Everyone is watching the 'skitter swell up! As you can tell my Uncle's face is turning red with the strain and everyone is laughing. I think the skitter got away though, but it left with a stomach ache I assure you! *laughs* 
A life lesson? Hmm... well, Don't be like a Mosquito, drinking in your own selfish pleasures! If you do you can been caught on a trap, that will try it's hardest not to let you go! Good news is that once you realize the trap your in, you can get free, by the forgiveness of the cross, the great grace of God. Believing in him, you have a sword to fight free of the trap and to live a new life free of bondage! With Christ as your savior you are free and the joy is something un-explainable! Something only a person believing can know. Praise God, the Most High!

 Hi there. It's Kylie here. It's been a while, hey? *laughs* Well, I'm back for at least one post. I thought I would just give a little update, about my crazy, exciting, boarding, sad, life. To begin with: my brother's wedding! I know I left off blogging right before their wedding because life was SO busy then... and hasn't really slowed down at all. The wedding was fabulous! It still brings a smile to my face to remember that special day. My brother and his bride were beaming with joy and it just radiated over the whole place. My heart still warms with the memory of how they walked out man in wife, their faces lit up with happiness! *sigh* If only I could live that day over again.

I love to try new things!(Even when it scares me almost to death! *Wink*) I dive into things, and sometimes end up embarrassed. *sigh* I wish I wouldn't do that! I like: Long dresses, aprons, dressing up, guns, hunting, doing cartwheels, running, paper, pencils, leather, books, Friends, bonfires, mountain air, cowboy hat, cowboy boot, cameras, old fashion clothing, and more!

Book Reviews // Charley Skedaddle

Then came a fearful yowling from directly above him. It wasn't just a screeching now but something more-scratching on the shingles right over him. The painter (Panther, cougar, Mountain Lion, Puma...)was back- and hungry! Did she know he was here alone? Charley Skedaddle By Patricia Beatty I give this book Three stars Okay, so I gave a book three stars. The thing is... I liked the book but... well, I'll explain later. Plot: Charley Quinn was never scared  of a fight or to get his hands dirty, after all he's Bowery Boy. A member of one of the toughest gangs in New York City.

But the horrors of war become a reality- and he sees his best friend killed- Charley is terrified.  He "skedaddles" from both the union army he deserted and the Confederates who arrest him as spy. Charley heads for the Blue Mountains. There he meets Granny Bent, an orne
