Once a Day and Sometimes More!

Once a day and sometimes more, you knock upon my daydream door.

 These are the words from a poem from many years ago, probably in the mourning of a lost love, but today I was reminded of the poem in remembering each of you and how very much I miss not seeing and/or hearing from you on a regular basis.  The magnificent conversations that I have with myself are not always very stimulating!

You may wonder why I have the address of Western Gifts or Western Decor....well, you see, it's like this; once upon a time, when I first set up this blog it was intended to be an affiliate blog to hopefully put some extra cash in my pocket so I could do some travelling.  Well as often happens, it didn't succeed!  I didn't truly get on board with social media and promote the items that I set out to focus on.  You may remember the blog I set up Go All Western.  This blog was cancelled due to inactivity...my following wasn't purchasing western apparel or horse tack from the vendors that I was supporting.  Again, largely due to my lack of advertising

As I thought about keeping Western Gifts  I decided, YES!  I live in the West, I love the western lifestyle, and this is my Gift to each of you!  Until next time!  L&H's

I'M BACK!!

I just spent an hour writing this fantastic monolog and poof it was gone!  I will try again....this time you will receive the condensed version!

A BIG THANK YOU to Lance, Lexi and family for their visit.  Greatly appreciated!  Yes Lance I found one small stain so when you receive the table cloth as an inheritance you will have a small memory to go with it...sure do love you guys!

A BIG THANK YOU to Jennifer and Lander for helping with my yard!  Praying for no more frost!

Thanks for Laine's baseball schedule...Sounds great....I will support as much as I can.  Will always be rooting Laine in spirit if not physically at the park.

Looked up the Linn County Pioneer Museum and am anxious to visit sometime this summer.

I am having a terrible time finding someone to vote for in this election year!  I don't have anyone to bounce ideas off of and I haven't found any candidate that I feel truly represents my feelings. UGHH!

Okay, I have rambled, hit the edges and did accomplish some semblance of writing.....why oh why can't I find the spell check?

In my scripture reading this a.m. I found a verse that really hit me....I think I will attempt to make it my motto...

.......Whether the Lord will that I be translated, or that I suffer the will of the Lord in the flesh, it matereth not, if it so be that I am saved in the kingdom of God.           Ether 15:34

And more especially if it is with each of you!      L&H's
