Monday is here as we wind down the month of June very HOT!
We are in our second week of babysitting our granddogs. This is Molly and she is the youngest of our group. She loves swimming in their pool for hours.
This is the oldest in our group, Lily. She is a "Man Ankle Bitter," all 2 pounds of her, even though now she doesn't have many teeth left.
Our Carly was treated to some extra love this week when our grandson, Will, came for a visit.
At 5 pm every day, all our dogs remind Rbt that it is time for a snack. This also happens each morning when he comes out of the bedroom as they are all there waiting for him and their snack. Can you say SPOILED?
Good Morning to you! What has your day been like so far?
No matter what you do today, have a positive attitude! I am positive I am going to have to mow because when the pets go outside the grass is so tall you can't see them.
I am positive that I have had enough coffee now to mow the lawn.
I am also positive that it is not nice to laugh at someone but fun to laugh with them.
I am positive that I love sending you Blessings & Hugs! each and every day! and putting a smile on your face! Pam
Friday is all about the coffee! We are going to pick up our grocery order. The problem with that is it is 45 minutes away... one way!
So getting dressed and staying cool is the BIGGEST factor today. Our days are now in the 90's each day until the rain comes back, maybe Monday.
So this yard, belonging to my Boss, hopefully has dried up and we won't see anything like this again this year.
Now I must brag on my neighbors, Bennett's soccer team was undefeated this year and they won first place. Jessica is a pretty proud Mom!
The whole family went earlier this week to pick Blueberries. Livvy and Jessica brought us a small container of Blueberries picked fresh to our door and they WERE delicious.
Tuesday is a good morning to watch for hummingbirds as the sun comes up with a cup of coffee.
Oh look, here comes one now. I am glad he found a flower and not my coffee.
Monday evening around 6 pm we got 1.4" of rain in 40 minutes; Sunday evening we got 1.8" in just over an hour; and Saturday we had two showers for a total of 1.9".
Yes, our yard is squishy! I think we are nearing 30" of rain for the year already.
Time to put a smile on my face and if it rains again I will run outside and splash in the puddles as long as they aren't tooooo deep or muddy.
Saturday we got just under 2" and this evening we got just under 2" in about an hour. I love going out the garage and splashing in the water that stands in the driveway. So today I took this beautiful reflection as the sun was setting.
Wake up and let's get this Friday started. It is almost the weekend. And the weekend is for resting and doing little to nothing! It is the last day of May and June is about to start.
After all that we have done this past week, I do think the warranty is just about to expire on yard work and housework and picking up limbs from trimmed trees.
Rbt and I joined a new group. Have you heard of it? It might include napping daily. We have come to the realization that we can't keep up with our kids and grandchildren.
We are even having trouble keeping up with technology and all the new updates. Do you remember the way the phone used to work when you just flipped it open or just picked up the receiver and dialed the number?
There are so many distractions. We just need to stay on course and not get off track. Getting old is NOT for sissies and I just want to accomplish Jesus' "to do" list for me.
Let your light shine this Wednesday. Yesterday afternoon was one of the most beautiful days in May. After the storms, the sun came out but the temperatures were much cooler.
How awesome to enjoy a Spring day before Summer gets a hole and takes over.
As beautiful as the day was, it was NOT a good day to go for a drive. Signal lights were still out and even some restaurants were not open because of no electricity.
However, it was a perfect day to sit on the patio and enjoy the rocking chair, especially when someone else is rocking you!
Every day do whatever it takes to find a way to let your light shine and to be happy and to share your smile with others.
