I’m THE WEST VIRGINIA WOMAN, host of The Holstein House Podcast, proprietor of Holstein House B&B. Happily married since 17Mar21. I enjoy food prep and storage, gardening, dogs, cats, chickens, ducks
Let me try that again: Mother-in-law fell last night. BIL who lives across the road called ambulance. They took her in for stitches. Mr. Holstein just texted that she was admitted and they are monitoring brain bleed. I asked, "She has one or they are watching for one?" He said he didn't know. The BIL is weak at sharing information and making decisions. Mr. Holstein doesn't always ask good questions. Dad's follow-up from spine surgery is at 10:30. What a day and it's just 7:15 #family #familyfirst #nostr #grownosr #parents

Good morning all y’all! It is cold out this morning! Right now it’s 22°F/-5.6°C on the Holstein House front porch, in my part of Kanawha County, West Virginia, USA! Allergy shots, fill Dad’s propane, and errands will take up most of this day! #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #weather #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr image
Good morning all y’all! It’s 31°F/0°C out on the Holstein House front porch this morning. I should have already gotten out my winter neck gaiters to protect my lungs. Oops. December is here. Do you have special plans for this month? #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #weather #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr image
Good chilly Sunday morning all y’all! Snowy and cold today, starting off at 36°F/2.2°C on the Holstein House front porch, in my part of Kanawha County, West Virginia, USA! Cleaning up after a long weekend. Obligatory snow picture follows! #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #weather #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr image
Good morning all y'all! Spitting snow in my part of Kanawha County, West Virginia. Any good black Friday shopping going on? Ordering some wish list stuff for the grands. #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #blackfriday #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr #foodstr image
Doesn’t look like much but as crazy as this day has been it’s not bad. Two apple pies, one apple cake, cookies, and lemon bars. In the morning I will make pumpkin pies, and the rest of dinner. #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr #foodstr image
Just arranged this $22 bouquet for $10. 😊 one dozen red roses, three white hydrangeas, and two small bunches of charmelia. Good morning all y’all. #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr image
I am so scrambled brain this morning. LOL Google morning all y’all! Just knowing what all has to happen this week has me crazy. Getting my allergy shot, then a stop by Kroger. Then home to make what I can ahead of Thursday. Dad has his surgery tomorrow midday. What does your week look like? #thanksgiving holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr image
Food pantry day! Took the grand nephew to the pantry day. He earned some volunteer credits (don’t ask). Gave boxes to over 120 families. Some got two boxes if there was a low income senior citizen in the household. Each family also got 1 turkey. image
Boom! Only grandma Pekin isn’t laying so far. But then she is old. LOL #ducks #eggs #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #nostr #grownostr #foodstr #bnbstr image
Another appointment with Dad. This time eyes. Just a checkup. #familyfirst #daddysgirl #wv #usa #grownostr image
Yep. Next Tuesday Dad has another back surgery. He says if this one doesn’t help he won’t have another. #familyfirst #daddysgirl #priorities #nostr #grownostr image
Well, today I closed the Diamond UMC church bank account, and deactivated the church FB page. Tomorrow I take the keys to the District Superintendent and I will end that chapter of my life. I've been attending a new church. I'm enjoying it, but still adjusting to the difference in style. I was asked to solo yesterday when one of their praise team members stayed home sick.
So, I kinda want to see the "The Saints" series on Fox Nation, but I'm not interested in another streaming service. (sigh). Taking that step, subscribing to Fox Nation, feels a little cultish.

Good morning all y'all! It's 47* and clear out this morning. Sunrise 07:40, sunset 17:15. Clear and dry again, but I think rain tomorrow. Gotta get that beef stock going this morning. #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #gm #bnb #pv #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr
Two! I think this is the young girl, not the older ones. Anything fun happening this weekend? #ducks #eggs #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #nostr #grownostr #foodstr #bnbstr image
