Been a stressful past week. I worked Mon- till today. Usually 4 hours those days but yesterday I did 6.5 and today 5.5. HAHA..I know to some that don't like much and it was really no big deal and that is not what made the  week stressful.  Last Wed. my computer at work went wonky. When I got it to come back up  and behave correctly, my billing program just would not come back to being what it should be. Then by accident, I hit restore. Aw HELL....but what did it restore back to? NOT A CLUE.  Got the IT folks down there and he was amazing!! Boy I was stressing big time thinking I lost everything. Jobs  numbers and even clients would not  come up. Thank you Sean!!  I booked today to get this past weeks billing in. Billed out  for Photo Serv. for over 25 K this month. Also, thanks to our photographers for a job well done.  Moving on past that. Life is good or at least better. Next issue of Life Between the Lakes will be

Alright blogging friends my daughter is wanting  to do something special for her hubby~ She needs everyone’s help to get a picture that says this phrase (picture is posted with what the phrase should be) with the miles from Lyles,Tennessee, to where you are, GOOGLE the miles.  PLEASE TRY TO INCLUDE SOMETHING IN THE BACKGROUND THAT SHOWS WHERE IT IS IF POSSIBLE ❤️ She is shooting for 49 states and beyond! Here is an example of a picture. I’ll try to mark out the places as we go! You can ask friends or family and you can post the pics here in the comments or send a message! Thanks in advance! This is for Valentine’s Day! Here are two places she has so far.... Boston, Massachusetts  San Diego, California  Not concerned if we get other cities in the same states. She is hoping to make a scrap book. You can send them to  me at pjack214@bellsouth.net Thanks so much, Pam

Flowers

Did not get any packing or moving done after work today.  But I did get some errands  run.  I made Valentine flowers for my nephew Sean and  a bunch for mom and dad. Hard to believe that Seany Boy would be 35 yrs old this past Dec. I had to laugh today thinking about him being amazed that his hair would come out when he pulled on it. Sean was four when we found out he had cancer. He was gone at 8. I did add a balloon to mom and  dads bunch for my mom. Although I am more at peace these days, I  still cry, I still miss her. Mom was not a fan of roses. Her and I both thought the smell reminded us of ....funeral homes.  Not being crazy about roses I  went with these instead.  I went another way home today that I don't normally go.... cause, I have been noticing this from the interstate. Was not really sure what it was so I took this route home to  go by and check it out. If you  know what this is, th

Cleaning out my STASHES! Yes, I said stash...ES. These are going. I am giving them to my son in laws sister, she has 3 kids, home schools and they do craft art projects. Plus there are some necklaces and bracelets I bought for the beads that I never took apart. Her daughter will love those. AND...with that I have to  say that I still have  TONS  of beads. If I don't start using some of these then

Coltons and Great Buys

Friday I went to the Tractor Supply store to pick up  feed for Misfire. This was before Chris and Renee said they would take Misfire since I was going to find her a good home.  My great nephew lives on  a farm with horse, pigs,  cows, chickens, dogs, turkey and cats.  He loves animals. He loves the horses most of all. While at Tractor Supply  I saw the cutest stick  pony while I was there and  texted my niece Paige to see if little man Colton had one. I had left when I got a message back...NOPE he does not have  one. So aunt Pam went  back to the store to get him one. I had to, they were so  cute and marked down from Christmas. I got the pony for 3.99 and the original price was 9.99. Colton rides the horses at the farm but aunt Pam thought he needed one to ride in the house!!! But looking at this pic above I am  sure you noticed the cow also. Being that Colton lives around  cows, I felt he needed one

Last night I did a whole long blog on headboards. Then I screwed up, hit a button that took it all away! I hate when I do crap like that. So, forget headboards!! Lets just move on past that! 😲 How about a cool shot looking down the street at the Batman Bldg! Actually the AT&T bldg. but the AKA name is Batman. So much building in Nashville still today, seems like forever. But I love how the companies doing the building always includes the US flag on the cranes. I count 3 in this one pic.  i I can't remember what Nashville paid for this piece of art but  it sits down at Riverfront Park. There are some really nice apartments built coming right inside of town, the old General Hospital once stood here. They actually left one of the older bldgs standing that is now used for  apartments. I wonder how many ghost roam there!!! I had never driven up through the apartments but I did today. Th
