THE ADVENTURES OF JJ PICKLETOES

I finally got one.  Yes, you know it.  My custom kitchen has finally arrived.  It is a vintage kitchen, I got it from one of my friends,   her children used it and now I am getting to use it.  Thanks for giving me this custom kitchen.   I am just going to leave it at my grandparents place.  . Isn’t vintage all…

My relatives came here many years ago.  . Why?  . Why did they come to this part of the world?  . Did they not check the weather APP before making the decision of where to move?  What did they use to check the weather in the 1800’s if there wasn’t an APP? …

Sorry that I am writing this late this week.  I have been busy.  . There are things that people say can’t be done or maybe that you shouldn’t do.  There are people who say they have done impossible things.   Do you always believe them? .  Things like making airplanes and flying like the Froebe…

Is it too early to be learning things?  I am walking a little and I am talking a little.  But that doesn’t mean that my brain isn’t soaking things in.  Like Grandpa says” just because I don’t talk much doesn’t mean that  I am not paying attention.”  . I love learning new things.  It seems that if I am learning, then the things must be…

Playtime is over,   Overrated.  You would think that there would be time for play, over the break?  Not so.  I got a work bench for Christmas and I been busy using the saw, hammer and the wrenches.  My cordless drill like any cordless tool, Milwaukee or Dewalt, has a dead battery.  My dad has a Milwaukee cordless drill set, but the battery is…

It has been a busy few days.  We have been to several family Christmas gatherings.  We have been to a couple of Christmas church services.  We even had time to go to our friends for lunch after church.  . I have received some very nice gifts from generous friends and family.  . I have received a nice hoodie from…

That’s correct.  It is the day I have been looking forward to,  It doesn’t happen very often, but it has happened.  . I know what you are thinking.  It is getting to be that time of year.  . For our family, the Christmas gatherings have started,  You may celebrate Hannukka or something else this time of year.  The meanings may…

Para mis amigos de hablo Hispano.  That is correct.  I was sick.  . I spent a lovely Sunday afternoon in the emergency room at the Steinbach hospital.  There were a lot of people there.  . You know that most people make it to church on Sunday morning, before going to…

There seem to be a lot of boxes.  Why would we need so many boxes?  There are boxes all over the place, I can hardly walk around here with so many boxes.  I can hardly walk anywhere, so the boxes aren’t really the problem.  I may not be the best walker that you know, but I am really good at taking the tape off…
