Tuesday cuteness! Saw this cute graphic and thought it looks so much like the new puppy my friends in Lubbock just picked up Saturday.
Meet Rosie! They have been waiting about a year for the conception and birth. Then they got to pick the one of 6, 3 boys & 3 girls, that they wanted.
Nicole and Michelle came over with my son, Wayne, and DIL, Evelyn, on Saturday afternoon. They all 4 get their haircuts in FATE.
Wayne and I sat outside on the patio filming the 15-20 hummingbirds in the backyard. We loved watching them fly with their tail spread out and the males red throats in the sunshine. These two are females.
This Hummingbird is showing off his tail feathers. You can see the white at the bottom of each one.
There are 3 hummingbirds in this picture. One you can almost see the red throat. When the sun hits them just right, the red is brilliant. Counting my blessings one by one.
We went to the American Legion today to celebrate 9/11. We missed the Patriot Riders who started their ride around 10 and ended up there about an hour or so later. Tehy were gone by the time we got there, but we stayed and had something to eat and drink and our friends showed up a bit later. Did you do anything to remember 9/11 Cheryl? The day passed and we spent a quiet time at home - watched part of the football game tonite, but turned it off after a while. Hope you had a good day. Have fun with your Lego project. Hugs, Wendy
Oh yes! I am smiling! Saturday was so wonderful! Have I told you how much I love THE Texas Longhorns?
I am so thankful that that game is over AND that we won. They (Alabama) put us in the top sections for our fans and our BAND out of revenge. At least that is what the article said.
We are now looking at cooler temperatures and the possibility of rain for a few days. Besides, the Cowboys won a game too. So who wouldn't be smiling today?
I know it is time for me to shut up, get outta here and get on with the week with a big smile just as I do every day, win or lose. Counting my blessings!
Hi Cheryl - how is your Sunday going? It's a really nice day here - in the mid 80's and sunny. The thunderstorm we had yesterday has cooled things off nicely. Of course we still have the AC on. Richie's brother left his big boxer with us yesteday when he went to Jersey - he'll be back Monday as she has to go back to work on Tuesday. Can you believe it's 9/11 Monday. Time to put the flags back out down the drive and around the house. Seems I just did it and took them down the other day. Oh well, it's worrth it and makes our yard the prettiest in the the neighborhood. The hurricane will miss us , but will bring high tides tup the coast to New England. Have a good rest of the day. Hugs, Wendy
Good afternoon and Happy Labor Day. Are you doing anything for today? We aren't. Just a normal day here as Tony had to work. I went shopping for the things we needed this week. Walmart wasn't to bad. Its a hot and breezy day here. Its 100* and feels like 97*. I took out the trash a little while ago and the heat is awful with the wind. Feels like a blow dryer going outside. Well take care my friend and enjoy the rest of your day. Hugs, Cheryl
Good to hear from you Cheryl - that sure is hot where you live. It's been reaching a daytime high in the low twenties (high sixties where you are) which is really nice. Leaves are falling & that's too early to suit me as I know what's coming next - that white stuff. Bye for now, Loads of Love, Donna.
Let's go! We are heading in the right direction. 105°-107° on Friday and then cooler weather and possible rain heading our way!
Hopefully it means the end of summer and 100+ weather is coming to an end. We want to replace this bright sunshine and sunglasses too.
We want to get out the umbrellas for a while instead even if the sun peeks through on some days.
Now I am not one to carry an umbrella even though I do have 2 in my car. FYI, I don't wear a jacket of any kind either. Don't know where that came from!
After all, anything will do to keep a little of the rain off your head and then there is getting the wet umbrella back in the car.
However, if you need an umbrella, I will gladly get it out and share it with you. That's why I carry it in the car. It is just what friends do for each other.
Evening Cheryl. Was hot here today 96 and high humidity. I stayed in all day in the AC. Did go out later in the evening to take down the flags from the drive and around the hosue that I put out for Labor Day. Do it for certain holidays - next will be Flag Day. Was gonna go to a Moose meeting tonite but Rich went to an FRA meeting and y friend didn't do as she wasn't feeling good since she overdid her PT today. So I stayed home - I only attend theh general meeting and I didn't think it was worth it. Hate half sandwich of chicken saldad I made the other day. Rich came home with a few peices of pizza but wasn't in the mood for that. Hope you have a nice nite. Hugs, Wendy
Whoa! What a way to start a Wednesday! Is there anything more beautiful than the beach? Where else would you choose to go today?
Even though I am not much of a water person, a trip to the lake is always beautiful too. Which do you prefer? They are both so beautiful, each in their own way.
How about a trip to the mountains where we can find a cler, cool stream and watch the colors of fall as they start to change? Are you up for that?
There is nothing like a waterfall even if there are no other colors but the rock that surrounds it. Oh! and the sounds it makes cascading down!
We might be lucky enough to see a couple of moose wandering down the stream with the mountains in the background surrounded by the colors of Fall as the evening shadows start to appear.
Let's end the day with a full moon as it reflects on a stream that is slowly rippling as it makes its way downstream. It has been a perfect day! Thanks for coming along with me, my friend.
I kept trying to find a graphic for Monday... and then I'm like wait, yesterday was Monday and today is already Tuesday; tomorrow is hump day.
No wonder time flies by so fast. The days, weeks, months and years just keep getting faster and faster. Sit back and enjoy the view.
If you do get out and about, be sure to share the love, just sprinkle it wherever you go every day. Then it will come back to you tenfold.
We also win when showing love to others. If you see someone who needs help, stop what you are doing and help them. It may take some effort on your part or take away from your day, but it will be a big win for you both.
Grab hold and ride the winds on a cloud and see where the Holy Spirit leads you and what Blessings you will encounter. It may be obvious right away or later on down the road but the trip will be worth it.
Blessings upon blessings forever and a day from my heart to yours!
