The Ruralhood: Friends and Séances, Love and Regret
http://theruralhood.blogspot.com/2014/10/friends-and-seances-love-and-regret.html
Saturday, October 25, 2014. Friends and Séances, Love and Regret. As I walk back to Katie’s bedroom, I stop to stare at her brother’s vacant room. He’s out on a date with an older girl that I’m convinced stole him from me. My junior high crush is long gone, but not the memory of belting out, for him to hear, Loretta Lynn's. Song, You Ain’t Woman Enough to take my Man,. For whatever reason, I take the lead and call out to my friend asking if she is in the room and to say something if she is. One of th...

The Ruralhood: I blame the turkeys.
http://theruralhood.blogspot.com/2015/08/i-blame-turkeys.html
Thursday, August 6, 2015. I blame the turkeys. I'm the little girl, far right, in the photo. No fence separating us in this photo! Sorry for the grainy picture.). When I was a young child, my paternal grandparents (see header photo, bottom far right) were raising turkeys, probably. I was a child.). Turkeys were a different matter. One day we were visiting my grandparents and ended up outside the turkey pen, looking in through the wire. Bold, but not so beautiful, the turkeys moved closer to the wire fence.

Tuesday, April 29, 2014. My blog posts wouldn't be complete without a mention of my own siblings and a couple of photos.

The Ruralhood: Smuggling and Giggles
http://theruralhood.blogspot.com/2015/04/smuggling-and-giggles.html
Wednesday, April 22, 2015. The word smuggle makes me giggle. I have no idea why except some. Words do that for me. When Hillary Melton-Butcher from Positive Letters…inspirational stories…. Featured the word “Smuggling” as her A-Z alphabet word posted here. I giggled. Then this story popped into my mind. My problem was that this task turned into an expensive venture when I would buy the candy and then smuggle the candy (out of the baskets- sometimes) the “Easter Bunny” had prepared or. And let's not forge...

The Ruralhood: Belva Dugan--extra special
http://theruralhood.blogspot.com/2014/04/extra-something.html
Monday, April 28, 2014. Belva Dugan- extra special. Born and raised in Missouri, my Aunt Belva Dugan (on the right) lived in Texas most of her adult life. The oldest of eight children, Belva married once, but after a few years, her husband divorced her. They had no children. She was a career woman. My aunt was a wonderful woman, sweet and easy to talk to. She sewed and crafted, but I remember her most for her faith in God. She left behind a sweet devotional book. I am its caretaker. This is Aunt Belva's.
