What a way to start the week or end the week... OK, to start or end any day.  

Both coffee and a good book are very high on my list of favorites.  

Of course, flowers and hummingbirds are also very high on my list.  

Our dogs are always at the door to greet us when we come home.  And there is nothing cuter than a puppy or a baby of almost any kind.  

You should already know by now that Giraffes are very high on my tall list too.  

As you have guessed by now, I have a very long list.  Pictures and Life are also high on my list.  However, Jesus is at the very top!  I can't wait to see Him face to face.  

Lots and lots of HOT sizzling sunshine!  Rain, oh rain, our yards and foundations are begging for a gentle downpour.  But alas, we are still blessed compared to Hawaii and other places on this earth.  

Yes, today let us think about the things we do have that have blessed us in many ways we might have completely overlooked.  

This is entitled, "Canadian Beauty", but even our friends there have had fires and hot temperatures.  It will look like this again next year.  

Each and every one of us has some kind of problem, most of us more than one.  Some of the problems will make us stronger and some of the problems we may never understand.  But we have way more blessings than problems.  Just sit down and compare your list of each.  

After all, we are here with our friends and family and the rain is going to show up soon, just like the cooler weather.  Have faith and keep counting those Blessings!  

Friday is here and the weekend is almost here again.  What is happening in your world today?  

We begin most days with a kiss from the sun!  

Maybe we can find some shells along our journey today.  

I love watching the clouds move in and seeing how different they are each day.  

Or watching as the sun changes the colors of the sky as the daylight starts to fade.  

The end of the day approaches and the sun starts to set and reflections take on a magical quality.  Isn't the sun something wonderful and very hot this summer!  

Thanks for hanging in there with me for the last 4 months.  

At the end of every day, it is always nice to come home and read your post/email and see what is happening in your world.  

Now I know that you are glad I am your friend too.  Have you ever been called normal?  I am not sure any of us are normal or if we even know what that means anymore.  

Come on now, let's go find something fun to get into together.  I'll lead, unless you want to lead.  

After all, what are friends for?  And I'll share a secret with you...

Now you know as much as I do or as much as I can remember.  

Thought I would share a picture of me on my last day at work!

Now it is Wednesday, and I am off to run errands.  Hubby has a chiropractic appointment and is out of hearing aid batteries and milk.  My car needs gasoline.  Besides, we need to get out before the 100°+ temperatures are back.  So enjoy your day!  

Blessings & Hugs!

Sunday morning blessings to you!  A new week is starting for us and I only work 2 days then Jody will be Kelly's full time Business Office Assistant.  

Gosh how I will miss talking to our clients each day and I'll miss Kelly a lot too.  But I will let it all go until they call me to come in when Jody needs a vacation day to visit her family.  

I will still be singing out loud the happiest tune I can find each and every day.  

I will have a new voice and a new song to be sung.  Oh my, why are people around me covering their ears?  

Just because I am singing my heart out and sharing it with the world around me.  A new chapter is starting again.  

Here we go, ready or not, Thursday is here.  I work Friday, Monday and Tuesday.  I will then be home full time starting Wednesday.  Do you have plans to go anywhere or do anything fun?  

I think I would enjoy a train ride through the rocky mountains but not sure I would trust most of the train tracks of today.  

Now a nice quiet boat ride would be fun but I am not interested in running the rapids any time soon.  

I do like water, but I am not a swimmer per say.  I like fishing from the bank better than from a boat.   I love sitting on a bank and listening to the sounds.  

And few people love a good rain with thunder and lightning more than I do.  Please Lord, let it rain soon all over the state of Texas.  We need blessings!  

Saturday is still Caturday!  It is time to take the cat for a walk.  

That does remind me of most of the cats I have met in my life.  

None of the cats I have ever known have been what I would call an angel.  Even though we do love them and they do entertain us for the most part.  

They are cute when they chase a butterfly and they rarely dig up the flowers.  

However, they sure can seem to have a split personality at times.  So Caturday can also be just a Saturday as long as you are having a fun day!

I'm wondering why I can't type new scriptures in several of the posts.  Says I'm not a member.  Why was I able to back in 2021 then?  I don't get it.

Enjoyed looking at the pictures.  We didn't have any children but my husband had an adopted daughter who has a child.  She was just a tiny baby when I made my fist page about 19 years ago.

I hope your Sunday is a blessing and not scorching hot.  Sprinklers are going non stop here.  

Wendy shared a picture with us and I told her that it is more peaceful at her place than it is in our backyard.  It is wonderful to see the new babies.  

Another friend shared a picture of her son swimming with a dolphin in Cabo.  He has lots of swimming medals from earlier in school but what a blessing this must be for him and his girlfriend as she swam with a dolphin too.  

My friend in Lubbock is getting a new Standard Poodle puppy soon.  She wants her dog to teach her niece how to be a Perfect lady.  What a blessing!  

Of course, I couldn't leave without sharing our blessings to have wonderful neighbors.  We have watched Bennett grow up and now Livvy is 2.  They both loved the Ice Cream Cart we gave her.  She couldn't wait to lick the Ice Cream.  Be sure to count your blessings every day!  

Oh my, do the flowers dry out fast with day after day of over 100° weather.  I hope the flowers have some scent left on this hot, dry Saturday.  

This is the view each night in our backyard from 9 pm to 11 pm.  The laser lights are set on an app timer to turn on and off each night.  A couple of days after I first set it up, our neighbor sent Rbt a picture/video and asked him if he knew strange things were going on in our yard.  

When you look off to the side of the tree, it looks like fireflies in the dark sky.  It is very peaceful sitting on the patio and I can't wait for it to get cooler so I can sit out there longer.  

You know you are invited to come on over and sit with us anytime day or night.  After all, time is flying by so fast.  Say goodbye to July and to our younger days!
