Blogging Tips

By Pamela
If you are as new to blogs as I am, let me help you figure this one out. The cool thing about a blog is it allows you and I to comment about post made. In order to do that you have to sign in. There is a button in the top right corner that says SIGN IN. If you have a twitter, gmail, or yahoo email address this is the easiest thing in the world (come on, my momma did it)! You just log in with those user name and passwords. Once you have logged in, you can follow the blog. Even if you sign up to follow the blog, you can not leave a comment unless you are signed in.
I just want to say thanks for following my blog. I know a lot of you are reading it and providing me with lots of encouragement. I really need it and appreciate it!

    Wayne and I have fiddled with the commenting thing all night. I almost believe now in order to comment you have to have a gmail account. For those that can post, let me know what works for you.

    Yes I had to get a gmail account! I have never blogged in my life. So much for my plan to boycott blogging. See you tomorrow night.

    The other day I tried to sign in and it told me I had to have a gmail account. After you posted the directions, I logged on with the yahoo. If this posts then we know yahoo works.

    To the last person, I changed the settings to let anyone publish comments but it will only tell me that it was published Anonymously, as you can see above. So, I have no idea who posted it. The good news: anyone can now publish comments. The bad news: unless you include your name in the post, I will never know who it came from.

My Weekend Project: A PVC Camping Lamp Post and Flag Holder

By Pamela
I have seen a few of these around campsites and I knew I would like to have one. The only problem that I had is The Husband. He already thinks we drag too much stuff with us when we go camping and if I had told him my desire to have a PVC Camping Light Pole he would have shut it down quickly! So, that leaves a girl with only one choice: Figure out how to do it by herself. I did some internet searching and found a few road maps on RV forums. They seemed easy enough! I visited the local hardware store for the supplies: An exterior post lantern light 2 inch PVC pipe (I used 5 feet but had to purchase a 10 foot piece) A 3 inch toilet flange A 3 inch to 2 inch Reducer PVC Glue A 12 foot electric cord kit 2 - 3/4 inch PVC Caps I also used a few supplies we already had on hand: White Spray Paint 3 1/2 foot - 3/4 inch PVC Pipe Drill Bits (1 inch and 1/2 inch) Tent Stakes The first step was preparing the lantern light. I could only find black i

Liver Cheese: A Family Tradition

By Pamela
Today is an anniversary date. One of those dates you wish you did not have to remember but there is no way you can forget.  Fifteen years ago today,two days after his birthday, my father died of lung cancer. He was a lifelong smoker and his cancer was aggressive. His battle was short. He fought for six short months after his diagnosis. He knew the chemo was not working and that his time was limited. When he came to this realization he became the best dad in the world.                                                In the days before my father's passing, my family shared some memorable moments. One of those moments centers around the deli meat: Liver Cheese.I would not be surprised if you have never heard of it, or even never tasted it. But I was raised on it as it was one of my Dad's favorite things.  What is it? Well, it is a German food that is actually called Leberkase. It is bacon, corned beef, pork, and onion that is ground together and baked. It comes with a

Tonsillectomy (Warning Photos!)

By Pamela
The Short Chic came down with a pretty nasty case of strep throat back in April. So, when The Boy started complaining about his throat hurting about 12 days later, I was pretty confident that he had inherited his sister's strep. Instead, The Boy was diagnosed with a peritonsillar abscess growing on his right tonsil.  We had to immediately see an ENT  Physician who took a needle and drained the abscess. He removed about 5.5 cc of puss from The Boys throat.and then told us that once you have a peritonsillar abscess you were high risk to keep getting them. The Boy's tonsils were now compromised and needed to be removed.  We were told to plan for a two week recovery so we worked a surgery into our summer plans. Between family vacations, summer sports, and the beginning of school The Boy had his second surgery. A tonsillectomy.  Pre-surgery prepping went well. It must be nice to be young and have healthy veins for an IV! The Boy had lots of pre-surgery visitors. My
