I am getting everything ready for work tomorrow. We had a trace of rain just before daylight and another trace of rain mid afternoon. It might have totaled 1/10" but it kept our temperatures in the low to mid 80's today. I'll try to post a bulletin before I leave in the morning!
Let's start this middle of the week off right! Coffee and a wonderful view!
I am hoping with the cooler weather and possibility of rain, that some of my almost dead plants will start to bloom again.
The cooler temperatures do make for a more beautiful sunrise. A few days ago, I looked up and it was brilliant outside but by the time I got there with my camera, the colors had faded some.
It has been a very long time since we have seen a misty morning. However, in Texas we gladly look forward to every drop of moisture.
Anyway, I hope you have a Blessed Wednesday and enjoy the rest of this week. I will be working on Thursday! Thank you for your friendship! Fategrandma
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.
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!
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.
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!
Sunday morning, slight breeze with clouds around but no rain for us.
I think I lost another rose bush (this is NOT my rose, but I wish it was).
Then the Blessings came down from Heaven. We got 1/2" in this downpour and another 1/10" during the night when our electricity was off for 2 hours.. Thank you all for the prayers that were answered.
