Guess what! I am excited. Yes we are going to be mid 90's today, BUT there is a hint of fall in the air. Rain is all around us, not quite here yet. We are hopeful that we get a little bit as the yard in the back is very dry in the hot spots. But not a drop for us today.
First thing every morning I look outside to see if there is color in the sky. Again, guess what... it was there today. You know how I love to take pictures. So look how our day started.
So now we are off to the feed store for more dog food and just happen to pass by the Mexican Food restaurant for some Wednesday enchilada special to bring home for lunch.
Don't forget to share that smile if you are out and about today and that I am sending Blessings & Hugs your way.
I can't tell you how much we are enjoying Bella, the dog. If none of my dogs want to play, Bella just plays by herself. She will take toys out the doggie door and later bring them back inside. Last night she found a tennis ball in the toy basket and played with it for an hour. She would put it on the couch, jump up on the couch, push it off with her nose, and then run to get it as it bounced across the tile floor.
And that is all it takes to be happy. I hope you are finding what makes you happy today and doing it. I went to Costco and to Kroger for groceries on our list and got them all put away. I even baked a Braum's Cherry Pie (from frozen). I made Lemon Cream Cheese Bars yesterday for my hubby. I also made Broccoli & Apple Salad with Yogurt but we haven't eaten it yet.
So now I am heading outside to throw something and watch Bella, Carly, Reba, J Lo, and Miss Kitty either chase it or just turn and look at me wondering when I am going to go pick it up.
The long weekend is almost over and it has not cooled off at all in Texas. My goodness it is still hot, humid and miserable outside.
I sure hope that you found time to just chill and to recharge between hurricanes, tornados, fires, flooding and just the fun times of getting older. We have to be tough to survive!
So as I am sitting here counting my blessings and just want you to know that your name is included on my list.
So now I am headed to the magical, mystical ranch in the book I am reading because that is my way of "Chillin'".
That is what we did yesterday! We went to visit our kids and filled our souls with life. Last year we got to see Nicole play Volleyball only on FaceTime as masks and social distancing were in place. Yesterday we got to see Michelle play her first volleyball game with students, parents and grandparents all in the stands cheering on both teams. It was a fast and furious and loud game.
Michelle, serving, is so tiny that they don't let her play the 3 positions at the net and gave her the #1 jersey. As a family the girls have played volleyball for years, but I don't think any of us know all the rules. We are going to try to go back on Thursday to see Nicole play.
I sure hope you are going to unexpected places to enjoy life, especially with family, because you never know what tomorrow will bring. And when we get to Lake Ray Hubbard and know that we are almost back home, our hearts are filled with love.
We went to fill the car up with gas and pick up Tacos for lunch and shared our smiles and a blessing with others today. Sure hope you share your smile with others too because so many people are hurting for their loved ones.
Oh what a beautiful day! Sing it! Now that it is stuck in your head all day, you can thank me later.I got several big things out of the computer room and it is looking a little better. Hubby is weed-eating the yard. Dishwasher is running. Washer and dryer are both running. I'm not sure where they are all running to but Monday is off to a great start.
As you are singing your heart out today, don't forget to open your eyes and share that smile. And don't forget to say a prayer for all those in Ida's path.
Praying for everyone in Louisiana and Mississippi and all in Ida's path. We are blessed with clouds today and hoping for a sprinkle or two of rain as we just finished mowing the yard. The St. Augustine grass was so tall that I couldn't see what shoes I had on my feet.
I looked at the radar as I started this note to you and there was a small shower maybe 30 miles from us. Everything just now got quiet and I could hear rain. I looked at radar again as a shower popped up on top of us. Now it has quit. Blessings from Heaven on our newly mowed yard for 2 minutes.
Now it is time for lunch. What is a girl to do? How does cooking (or fixing something to eat) come around so often?
And all I want to do is read or maybe watch some football or the little league playoff game. I hope you had a blessed weekend and shared your smile.
Happy weekend my Jacobo, wish you enjoy the weekend with friends and family. Thank you so much for dropping by to my page and sent me a beautiful comments. Sending Hugs and many kisses your way. Eunhye Grace
Just finished the 2nd book in the Three Rivers Ranch Romance Box set of 3 by Liz Isaacson. Miss Kitty Wells, our Papillon, got groomed today and the other 3 got their nails trimmed.
So you would think that everyone was all dressed up and ready to go out. Guess what?!? They are all taking a nap. Sometimes this is the most exciting place to be... or not.
I guess that is what happens after a delicious meal. OK, I sort of cooked. I made pancakes and pan sausage for our meal of the day around 12:30. Don't laugh and don't look so shocked!
For the past week, every time we have seen an iHop commercial, we have talked about how they don't taste as good there as the ad makes them look on TV. Well, mine tasted better than iHop!
You are such a good friend. I really appreciate you not laughing out loud at me even with my new haircut.
