What do you look for in an accessible home? Many homebuyers have considered this question over the years as accessible design and building standards evolve, and the answer is multi-faceted. Some people need to consider accessibility for current disabilities, while others are planning ahead with the intention of aging in place. 

Depending on your current needs and timeframe, you’ll want to think about which modifications you can afford to make on your own and which you’ll need to hire a contractor for. It’s also important to know which aspects of your home you need accessible right away to make daily life easier if you find a great house that’s less than perfect. Here are a few suggestions from Frog Reviews and Ramblings to help you get the right house and the right features for your needs.  read more

SEPTEMBER GOALS

Since we are entering the end of the year it is a perfect time to make a list of goals for the month of September. People will usually do this at the beginning of the year, but here’s my thoughts.  Why should that only be for the beginning of a new year?   I think it is a great way to get yourself organized for the balance of 2022!

Have you ever sat down and written out goals for the whole month?  
Maybe my list will be inspirational for you.

  • DECORATE FOR FALL:  Oh what fun it is to change up your décor for the season!  I LOVE decorating for Fall.  There is so much you can do with this season!  I almost always find myself at Hobby Lobby or TJ Max to see what I can find to add to the inside and outside for my seasonal decorating fun!

    Finding a full-time job when you have a disability can be difficult. Problems abound – like stigmas and a lack of opportunities.

    Launching your own business doesn’t have to be hard. To help you begin the journey to business ownership, FROG Reviews and Ramblings shares the following guidance and considerations as you prepare to take the leap.  read more

    PICKLED JALEPENO’S

    cowboy candy

    Do you or your family love hot stuff? Of course this recipe is only as hot as your Jalapeno’s are. I have made about 6 or 7 batches of this so far in the past couple weeks. Some of them have not been so hot and others , well let’s just say my husband drank a couple large glasses of milk afterwards. I personally don’t like anything spicy, but he loves spice!!

    • 2/3 Cup Apple Cider Vinegar
    • 1 1/2 Cup Sugar
    • 1 1/2 Tsp Chili Powder
    • 2 Tsp Turmeric
    • 1 Tsp Ginger
    • 5 Jalepeno’s, cut into slices
    • 1 Pint Size Mason Jar

    In a large sauce pan, add the apple cider vinegar, sugar, chili powder, turmeric and ginger. Bring all of this to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and add the sliced Jalapenos’. Cook this mixture for 4 to 5 minutes. Pour all of this into your mason jar and allow to cool on countertop. Once it is cooled put the lid on and refrigerate. Allow it to sit for a week before eating (although my husband starts eating them right away). Lasts 3 to 4 months in refrigerator. (well, maybe your refrigerator but it never lasts that long in my house) read more

    Grandparents Raising Teenagers / Update

    It has been months since I gave an update on raising our 2 oldest granddaughters.  

    I will start with a quick recap of how we got to this point in life.  About 8 years ago, our oldest daughter started her fight with addiction and she brought her girls to live with their Papa and I.  If you would like to know the beginning of that story, I have put a link to that blog post here

    It seems as though my  home is full of hormones and teenage drama.  I love having the girls here, but wow!  Teenage girls can really test your patience!  read more
