I like Betty Ann, aka MsHen because...


Betty Ann has been a friend of mine since the first of the year and quick became one of my biggest supporters. Betty Ann is a recovery blogger. Her blog is titled Diary of a Frugal Hen without a Rooster. She is a member of AlAnon and is very serious about her involvement in it.

Quite often I will get a word of encouragement from Betty Ann. Sometimes it will be in the form of a ((hug)) which comes at a needed time. We have become good friends in a short time.

As does most of the recovery bloggers, Betty Ann always includes a gratitude list in her posts. It always gives me a smile since she always is grateful for the most simple of things. When she gets through struggles, she will blog a gratitude about what she learned from that.

She is a single mom. She has a son still at home and she is very involved with him and very proud of his accomplishments. Betty Ann once sent me an email with photos of all his new exotic pets, some of which would freak my wife out.

Another thing I like about Betty Ann is how she will go to blogs I feature in some of my posts, comment, and start following them. She, like many others here, is a great encourager.

So if you've not been to visit Betty Ann, go to Diary of a Frugal Hen without a Rooster. If you leave a comment, don't be surprised if she pays you a return visit.

Betty Ann is wonderful! Her writing is an inspiration to me. I read her blog and think about the things I have to be thankful for in a whole new way.

Post 800: Time to chat

Hi Guys, It's hard to believe that this is post number 800 for this blog. I started this blog out of my desire to communicate. Since radio and television is becoming more and more automated and less and less personal, I'm glad I made the decision to go in this direction as it has given me many blessings. When I first decided to write my musings, a friend from the radio and television boards who goes by the name of newsnomore, told me not to be discouraged if I didn't get any readers. The fact that I did in the early going made me surprised and grateful that anyone was enjoying what I wrote. I've had people tell me that maybe it wasn't meant for me to ever be in radio, that maybe my calling was blogging. Nowadays I think blogging makes for better two way conversation than terrestrial radio, especially the way I do it, non confrontational. The closest I come from any confrontation is the innocent digs that Pat and I shoot at each other. On an average day I get betwee...

Lawson's Chip Dip

On a couple of occasions I have written posts dedicated to Lawson's, a convenience store chain that was located in Ohio for close to 50 years. In the late 1980's the chain was bought out by Dairy Mart, of Engfield Ct. Dairy Mart was then purchased by Alimentation Couche-Tard, and most stored were rebranded Circle K. Something that has survived the years since Lawson's has left the landscape is Lawson's Chip Dip. I get many hits on this blog from people out of Ohio, I'm thinking former Buckeyes, looking for availability of this chip dip. I had gotten an email from a former resident of Cleveland looking for it. I emailed Circle K about this sometime ago asking if it was possible to send the dip out to those out of state, they said because of quality issues that it was not possible. My only suggestion would be to get in touch with Circle K in your home area and ask them to start stocking this very popular item that seems to make every get-together complete. Now we wil...

Sometimes Sports are Just Sports

 This may or may not make the final cut of my book. I was writing about some events this weekend and what had started as a joyous Friday night at my home school district became a weekend of heartbreak in the area after what happened at another school. Sometimes We Need to Realize That Sports are Just Games   Friday nights in late summer and early fall are sometimes a big deal for high school students and their families. As the long-time band announcer for my local high school, it is a time of year I always look forward to. This past Friday night was originally supposed to be the homecoming game for the local high school. The schedule had to be changed a bit because of the uncertainty of the opponents being able to field a team. There was talk around the league that they may have had to forfeit this game, so homecoming for the local school was rescheduled. The opponents, which are rivals of my local school district, were able to field a team and the game was played. The...
