The sun is shinning , birds singing and the grass is getting greener. My, My the beauty of spring is such a treasure to see. It makes one giggle, smile and start to dig in the flowerbeds just for the fun of it. May you have a delightful day. Smiles Gloria
There are no words to tell you how blessed we are today and everyday. The rain bombarded us at 3 am and we ended up with 2" total. But north of Fort Worth (Keller, Saginaw and other areas) had very large hail.
And it did lots of damage. The news showed areas like hotels, apartments, and car rentals where almost every car in the parking lots had the back windows totally shattered or lots of holes in them.
We had lots of thunder and lightning but no damaging winds or hail. And even though we had 2" of rain, we were on the edge of the storm as an area near Waxahachie reported 7" from last night.
I am so very thankful that all the plants I put out in the yard didn't get beat up, but seem to be thriving. Praying that those of you who needed rain got it and none of you had damage from storms.
Now it is afternoon already. Where does the time go? Who stole it ?
Yesterday I got some new plants and some seeds put in pots. Also got them all around our yard in places. Now I need your help identifying a bird that I got a picture of in our yard.
So now that I have wasted your time, you are probably wondering where the day has gone. Guess I had better go find my umbrella because we are due rain and storms for the next day or two.
I hope you have a smile on your face and that you share that smile with others today. Blessings & Hugs are headed your way and I am
Hi there. I hope you had a good weekend and a good start to the week. We were out of town on Friday and just got back yesterday evening. Went and saw our oldest daughter and her two boys . Had lots of fun with the grandsons. They wore us out. Got to hold a baby chicken. It was nice to see her and spoil the grandsons. Glad to be back home though. Almost caught up with the laundry. Got the last load in the dryer. I hope you are having a nice afternoon and a peaceful evening. Take care my friend. Cheryl
Here we are into another week, Tuesday already. I paid a few bills... UGH! Hubby is mowing because tonight, Wednesday, and Thursday is a chance of up to 3-4" of rain. Our backyard creek is just now dry enough to mow today.
Sun, clouds and rain are competing for our attention. And the pink moon was beautiful last night. We all had to catch it in between the clouds moving in and out.
So when you have time stop by and leave me a note and know that I am sending your Blessings & Hugs!

May your Monday be kind to you as the spring flowers gradually come out of the ground bringing a smile to your face seeing all of this beauty. April will be gone soon and May will bloom bringing more of spring. So exciting! May you have a glorious week seeing all of natures excitement around you as May comes into the picture. April showers bring May flowers . Smiles Gloria
My how time flies even when you are retired. Where did the weekend go? We ended up with an inch of rain on Friday afternoon and evening. Saturday, we spent about 4 hours moving and planting plants. That afternoon we watched sports. Sunday we watched our Church services then enjoyed sitting on the patio and watching hummingbirds, squirrels, and lots of other birds. Even saw a big Blue Jay several times. Hubby got almost all the glue off my incision too. So it feels much better as I wait for more of the feeling to come back.
So thanks for being such a faithful friend and stopping by! It always means so much to me!
We have clouds this morning and therefore we are much warmer, low 50's. Today we will probably hang plants back into the trees around the yard. It is...
and that means I am working tomorrow. We are supposed to have 2, that's right... TWO rounds of thunderstorms tomorrow.
Yes! I love thunder and lightning and rain. On second thought, we may wait until Saturday or Sunday to move plants, when it is sunshine and 80.
Since I might not make it to the Hill tomorrow, I'll send this today...
I know what you mean about allergies; they can make us miserable.
Hugs, Maria
Hi there. I hope you are doing good on this Wednesday morning. My allgeries are acting up this morning. Been sneezing. I will be glad when everything has bloomed and is done. I do like spring time but not the allergies. Its a cloudy morning here. No chance for moisture so the clouds need to go away and give us some sunshine. Have a good day my friend and take care. Cheryl
You will never guess what I did today!!! I took a trip to Venice. A virtual trip to Venice! The tour guide was fabulous! The hour flew by and was most interesting. Our guide gave us lots of history on Venice. Have any of you ever done a virtual zoom tour? Here is the link... https://photos.app.goo.gl/NNg7GkJXnhhXxGt98
Now the pictures aren't great but with an Apple Mac, it is so easy to do screen shots. I didn't know if she would allow it so I didn't start until our guide told us it was OK to take pictures. I do hope you enjoy them.
I had several friends this morning send me text pictures of snow. Dallas broke a record low set back in 1918. Baby it's cold outside. I doubt we will hit 60 today and the wind chill is brrrr.
Yes, I have a sweatshirt on! So there won't be any sitting in the sun for my Vitamin D today. I know we will be in the 80's soon so I will hang on to that!
Hope to hear from you soon! Blessings & Hugs are coming your way.
