Single

So here I am looking backwards at what once was my single life. Wow that was a very long time ago. I guess I can start with that I am female, and right now I am 49 years young. I feel old sometimes but I am not. I thought that I would start my first blog by starting at the beginning. I know alot of people start their blogs from where they are right now. I wanted to be different. I was born in a small town called Prosser, Washington. Yeah I know you probably have never heard of it. It's okay, where I lived was even smaller. It's called Bickleton, Washington. Most people will never have heard of it either. But I was raised there with my family, my Dad, Mom, 2 sisters and a brother and then me, the baby. It wasn't easy for my parents I'm sure. We did not own our own home, so we tended to move a few times. That was okay to me though, because quite frankly I was a kid and we stayed in the area so I got to keep all my friends. And yes since it was so small you knew everyone and everyone knew you. There are currently probably 100 people in the town of Bickleton, if there are that many. When I went to school there, the population sign said 107 people. They even made it on the show Hee Haw. That was cool, even for those of us that lived there.

I remember my life back then, play with my friends, my family, my animals. There were no worries, why should there be. All my family or most of them lived in this area. And those that didn't well we got to see them quite a bit so it was okay. My Dad was what I would call a rancher, or rather a ranch hand would be the correct term I suppose. He worked for other people, he took care of their cows, calves, horses, whatever was needed he did. If the crop needed harvested he did that too. He loved his family, but I think his all time love was his horses and perhaps a bit of the bottle as well. At least that is what other people have told me, and looking back at my life then, I'm sure he would have been known as a drinker. Did he have a problem with drinking? I don't know. I don't really care at this point. It is in the past and it doesn't matter. So why did I bring it up because it all is what made me ME!!

So I hope that you will find this blog interesting, and if not please let me know. I probably won't change it because this is after all what I want in a blog. But if you have a question or if you feel you need something made clearer please leave me a comment and I will try my best to clear it up for you. This is going to take a while so don't think that all the answers will come out quickly. They won't. I have 49 years of life to catch you up on. I have gone through my own trials and tribulations, just like you have. Mine may be worse than yours, yours may be worse than mine, but this is my account of my life and I wanted to try writing a blog. Why? I don't know, maybe it is because my kids have their own, maybe it is because I read other peoples blogs, maybe it is because I plan on adding my own pictures and what not to it so you can really get to know me. I don't know I just wanted to. So follow along, and let me know that you are here. Stay well and stay safe until my next posting!!
