Saturday and I am having College Football Withdrawals! It will be about 4 weeks until my Texas Longhorns play. UGH!!!
Yesterday and today we had and will have warm temperatures but we also have 20+ mph winds on and off. Thank goodness they settle down at night.
I had a very busy week, especially for me. This time of year do you find people trying to be more kind or less kind? I try to take a deep breath and be more kind every day. Most days it works but some days it doesn't.
Some days things just don't go right, everything you do is a setback. So you just put on a smile. Somehow things get better and you laugh over the day you had.
So if you ever have a troubling day, look around and find something that makes you smile. I hope you have a great Caturday and Weekend being kind to everyone you encounter.
We made it to Friday again. In the blink of an eye Christmas will be over and it will be a brand new year. Today, I am sending you pictures of one of my favorite places that is beautiful all year round. We rode motorcycles down the coast of Oregon and around Crater Lake and back up to Portland.
Have you ever been there? It is a beautiful state to visit. Those are not my pictures as it was a long time ago. My pictures are somewhere on this computer though. Whatever you do, have fun and make great memories!
I am going to the Edward Jones Christmas dinner this evening. I am excited to see some of my favorite clients.
Yesterday we mowed (vacuumed) the yard and all the bags are now ready for pick up. We are supposed to be near 70 today but VERY windy. I am sure the yard will be full again.
The backyard cleans up nice. The poor plants are so confused with warm during the day and then mid 30's during the night. I think Saturday will be COLD north winds.
My orange climbing Rose bush that is over 20 years old is loving this weather. I hope you are enjoying your weather. I am sending you Blessings & Hugs!
Monday is here and we are still remembering the memories we made over the weekend.
We had such a blessed weekend. It started when our neighbors came over for a visit in the backyard. Jessica was pushing Bennett who is 8 and his sister who is 2 in our swing. Their laughter was music to our ears.
Then our adopted family arrived. We had the best time together celebrating 3 birthdays! We went to eat Mexican Food and "visited up a storm". Of course, the Texas Longhorns winning was the cherry on top.
Meet our grandson, Will, who is 6'5" at age 17. Yes he is taller than his dad who loves to mess with him. Yes, I am short!
Yes, Will is taller than his 6' mom! She takes such good care of us and obviously her son too.
Our dog Carly, loves everyone. Will doesn't even fit on the couch. But a fun time is always had when we are all together. Will has learned to tell long stories just like his Grandpa (as I shake my head).
Yes, we are very sad as they drive off because they are about 2 hours away and we don't like to drive after dark any more. We are so thankful every time they come to visit us. Yes, we are...
May you have a glorious weekend. At the moment I am enjoying one of my favorite coffee blends called Creme Brulee and a Creme Brulee creamer to go with it to make it even more special to the taste.
So exciting for in our area we just might see some snowflakes coming down on Monday. Now wouldn't that be delightful to ones eyes. Smiles Gloria
Happy Saturday, friend. Hope your weather is perfect for your plans. We are getting rain; perfect for us. But for some football games... not so much.😳 *hugs* -di
May you have a very pleasant wintery day today. We did get a bit of dusting of snow for over night and there is frost on the roof tops. My how I enjoy winter and all the snow flakes that fall from the sky. Stay warm and I will do the same in our area. Now where did I put that snow shovel. hahah Smiles Gloria
Snowflakes are kisses from heaven. ~Author unknown
