Wednesday is starting off slow. I need more coffee. Do I really have to get out of bed today? I love watching a good movie in the late evenings and then reading some in my latest book.
Some days are purrfect to just stay in bed and read a good book like... How to Kill a Mockingbird or How to Catch a Mouse.
Now you know why we don't have a cat. However, we do have dogs that don't like anything to be in their backyard, squirrels, bunnies, birds, mice, rats or anything that moves.
Good thing hummingbirds are very small and very fast and our dogs have never caught one of them.
So on this "middle of the week", stay in bed, read a good book, and don't worry about anything else. If you can get away with that!
Late summer in the U.S. plays w/us... sweet cool breezes, then horrible heat. Triple digit actual and "feels like" this week. BUT... maybe some who need rain will have it. Be comfy where you are... *hugs*
Good Morning! I thought I was going to have to work today, but Jody's jury duty summons was canceled. So here I am to check on you.
August 3rd, Nicole got her Texas Drivers License. Her new TDL card is already in her possession.
Yesterday, August 21st, Will got his Texas Drivers License. What a wonderful month it has been.
I'm trying to remember when I got mine and I can't remember that far back. But I was so excited when Wayne got his and I could just toss him the keys and say... Go get us some milk!
Y'all better look out on the roads. I do remember the first (shortly after I got my TDL) and the last (leaving the Ranch about 30 years ago) time I took the bottom out from under the car I was driving.
Sometimes Monday can start off as lemons.... Let's turn it into bananas instead.
Oh No! Did I hear the "banana" word (like my dogs when we say "Snackie Time").
No matter what you are having for breakfast this morning, it is time to start the day off right.
After all, swinging into a new week right will set the tone for the entire week.
Because sometimes before you get things marked off your list for Monday it will be time to say goodnight. The next thing you know it is Friday again and time to party the weekend away. So get some sleep now.
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!
How's your Tuesday morning so far? I think I sense Autumn... am I dreaming? We're getting a hard rain outta nowhere; no lightning, thunder, just rain. How refreshing! Happy *hugs*:) -di
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.
Good Caturday Morning to you! I am peeking in to see what you are doing today! I am watering, imagine that!
The plants are so wilted that there are very few blooms to even smell. We have been 104°-107° with heat indexes above 115°. We no longer have a green yard; it is yellow and the grass is almost dead.
It is best just to stay inside with the air conditioner and just glance outside through the window. Then pull the shades down again.
Don't open the window! The heat will come in and no telling who else! Maybe some nosey neighbor.
Have you seen that new guy with the blue eyes that moved into our neighborhood last week? I think his name is Gus!
I heard him call me a peeping tom just yesterday! Can you imagine? Doesn't he know who he is talking to?
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!
