Here it is! My first REAL post! I have posted pictures and
been on numerous websites, followed too many bloggers to name. Pinned this,
pinned that, oh, I’m going to build that some day! Wasted (too many) hours on Facebook
playing games, but THIS is my first written word post on my very own blog. Just a warning, I am not a college graduate
or a literary genius (you will figure that out very soon) I am just a wife, a mom
and a “Monie”! I love my God, my family and my country! I am a true blue, born
and raised, never lived anywhere else HOMEGROWN Texas Momma! I love my state, I
love that we fly our Texas flags here almost as much as the American flag. I
love the way we talk. I love cowboy boots! I can honestly say there is nowhere
else I would rather live in the world than Texas. My roots run Deep! My
grandfather on my mother’s side was a true Texas Ranger! No, not in Arlington.
He didn’t wear the red and blue uniform. His uniform, in every picture I’ve
seen was brown and usually dirty from a long days ride. Yep. This is really his badge.
This is just the beginning. I hope I don’t bore everyone to
death. Stick with me. I promise to get better. I am very computer illiterate! I
cannot stress that enough!!! I am learning as I go along! This blog will be
about me, my life, my family, my views and my world. If by some chance you are
not happy with any of those things you are more than welcome to stay and watch
the mess, but keep your negative opinions to yourself. I will not be having any
of that on here! Be forewarned!
Thanks for reading my first post!
Well, it's Springtime! The birds, the flowers the budding tress! The POLLEN!!! OMGoodness! I have never had allergy problem like I am having allergy problems this year! Maybe its my advanced age :/ I don't know. All I know is I feel horrible. the yellow pollen is covering everything! It does this every year here in Texas. BTW, if you don't live in Texas, 1st of all, I'm sorry, 2nd, you would not understand. People move here and find out that they have allergies they never knew they had. I will tell you that the only thing getting me thru this is my oils! I have been diffusing like crazy and putting tea tree down my neck because my ears hurt from all the gunk! I have been taking a Zyrtec everyday for a couple of years and it is not even coming close to cutting it anymore. This morning when the hubs left for work I refilled the diffuser with Eucalyptus and Roman Chamomile and Lavender. I put the Tea tree all along the outside bone of my ear and down my jawbone and added some Lavender with it also and crawled back in bed. Honestly, a couple of hours later and no more earache and I feel way better! Don't get me wrong I still have the gunk in my head but my ear doesn't hurt and neither does my throat. Oh yea, my throat has been killing me too from all the gunk draining down the back of it! These are pictures I took from around my house of the literal piles of pollen. Isn't it lovely!
