Lauren is fighting her way out of the coma! Last night, it was as bad as it could be. The family was told that if she survived, there was no way to determine what her brain function would be. All of this heartache and fear, is because she was either accidentally or was intentionally poisoned with...

Life is so fragile. I wrote a short post yesterday concerning my anticipated day. Nothing, absolutely nothing went as planned. I did have a nice property showing. Met some wonderful people and then was starting back towards town and Wassailfest as planned, when the phone rang. It was my friend, w...

Busy day ahead, take hubby for a doctor's appointment, an office party, showing property in the late afternoon, then off to pickup my buddy Jerry Lee Lewis (my white trash poodle) and go for a stroll in downtown New Braunfels for Wassailfest. Saying hello to everyone, checking out the store windo...

So much has happened the past couple of weeks. I haven't been able to write any blog entries because my old faithful laptop had a cardiac arrest. For a while, it looked as if there was going to be a family funeral but the computer was revived and I am assured that the newly transplanted hard driv...

I am female. I was born more than 50 years ago, so I was raised in a traditional home where the daddy gets up in the morning, goes to work, comes home to the little wife, the kids and a hot dinner on the table. Needless to say, that's not me, BUT I do have the skilz! Since the biggest cooking day...

I checked the December Calendar for the New Braunfels Chamber of Commerce, there sure is a lot of stuff to do if you have the time and the money. This weekend the Cowboy Kringle comes to Gruene with the Craft Fair, the Christmas Tree lighting ceremony is tomorrow downtown. There are various dance...

Granted, the Guadalupe River low water bridge at Gruene it isn't THAT beautiful. It was built as a utilitarian way to cross an impetuous river. Two narrow lanes more sized for Model T's than SUV's. I'm sure no great architects were ever involved in it's construction. It wasn't a graceful arch or ...

We wanted quiet. This is sooooo quiet, that I can actually hear the deer munching on the grass outside my bedroom window at night. I can also smell the skunks, hear the hawks and watch the clouds. I've seen ringtailed cats walking across the pasture & red fox & wild turkey - the kind you eat NOT ...

River Chase is a wonderful subdivision along the Guadalupe River in Comal County. It is divided by HWY 306 into what is locally called the "Old Part" and the "New Part." The Old Section began development around the turn of the century (2000;-) the other side began about 2003. The lot sizes in Sec...

Guadalupe River Oaks is a relatively small neighborhood on the northern side of New Braunfels & Gruene. It was first began in the late 1970's as what I like to call a "ranchette" Neighborhood. In order for a home to have enough room for a well and a standard septic system, the county regulated th...
