Scratchings, scribbles, doodles, and musings on life of a hands on/do it yourself kinda gal. Thoughts and ideas about being frugal, fix & repair home projects, being a single Mom, food, health, mental wellness and hobbies. Photos of my projects and interests especially bicycle related, nature, knit, and crochet.
Welcome
I hope you make yourself at home, relax, and enjoy my somewhat random words on many topics.

Smartphone
No longer am I an owner of the antiquated dumbphone. It is now time to see if mobile blogging is doable. According to Blogger info, it is possible to send photos too.

Mid MO weather
A few days ago it was over 70' and we set record high temperatures for this time of year. Today it was bitterly cold and a very blustery day outside. Our high was only supposed to be in the 20's and the low tonight in the negative numbers, when considering the wind chill. The drop in temperature was more than 50 degrees in less than a day, so the Mid MO weather is a little crazy lately.

Biking and Blogging
This year I will be trying to top my bike mileage from 2012, which was 7 miles short of being 600 miles. After not riding for over 5 years, I got started biking again in March on my old Walmart special, a Roadmaster 10 speed. That lasted about 90 miles, until the purchase of a used 93 Trek 930 MB. Wow, what a difference having 21 speeds makes. In July, because of working outside in the scorching heat and too busy of a schedule in September there was no added miles for those months.
Another thing that I will be working on, is my blogging. It would be nice to get that going a lot better too. It was much easier to do a little note now and then from my nice little Samsung Flight 2 cell, with a nice QWERTY keyboard. It was stolen in July and since then, only have old cell phones that do not work properly. In a few months a new, probably android, cell phone and possibly with a different wireless provider, will be mine. Seriously.... I have been an AT&T customer since 93 and really like the coverage, customer service and phones, but switching to a smartphone plan is just way too expensive with them. There are lots of other alternatives, though the coverage, and customer service may be questionable, so research has been going on for several months now and the alternatives are being scrutinized before the final decision. Hopefully it will be a smooth transition.
