Winter, one good thing about winter is filling the freezer with lots of meat. Oh how I miss venison!
Another good thing is baking cookies... just to warm up the house. Oh how I like a nice warm house and HUGS!
OK... that is just NOT happening. I don't even want to go outside in the winter. However, we are 68 this morning and cloudy. We had terrible winds for a couple of days. Friends in Lubbock have Tumbleweeds piled up for the second time over 7' high in their yard. I know that winter is not completely over in Texas so I am off to make some tea or hot chocolate. Hope you are enjoying Winter!
She is unforgettable, a collector of light and grace.
Delicate, yet a force of nature, she finds herself continuously rising beyond the storms that relentlessly arrive to break her.
Amongst the unapologetic winds and piercing rain, she holds her ground standing tall, despite it all planting seeds of faith in all the places that ache the most.
Finding hope in her heartache and strength in her struggles, she keeps reaching for the sun- always moving towards the light, even when giving up seems like the only option.
Bold and vibrant, her power is unwavering.
She knows that growth doesn't happen by avoiding the dark, it comes from finding light in the shadows that fall.
And that's her magic– finding beauty in what's broken, courageously following the direction of the sun even when it's hiding.
She is just like a sunflower - full of beauty but made of strength - chasing light and standing firm, only staying in places where her heart can grow the most.
Emanating love and healing, she's always living her brightest life radiating light to those who are in need of a little sun ..
Sunflowers are beautiful whether far away or up close. whether in black & white or color, whether in sun or freezing cold. Kind of like you are to me! Thanks for being my friend.
Do you read? If so, what kind of books do you enjoy the most? I have mysteries, humor, contemporary romance, women's fiction...
Then I have some thrillers, romantic suspense, historical romance, action and adventure too. You know the kind you don't want to read out loud.
But my favorite and the gendra that I read the most now at my age is Christian Fiction. Those are the ones I enjoy sharing the most too. Often I have to put my book down and think about what I just read or even underline it and bookmark it.
I was under the weather for a couple of days but so much better now. Didn't even read too much but got caught up in my sleep. The new girl's first day is tomorrow. Now I have a million things to catch up on including finishing my book.
Have you ever seen such a beautiful fountain? I graduated high school and never read a complete book, at least that is the way I remember it.
Now I love to read for the sheer enjoyment of the moment. I don't retain a lot and that is just the way my memory has always been. But when I read, I can become a different person.
I probably have more books than that and that doesn't count the over 5,000 kindle books on my iPad. Now if you will excuse me for a bit, I'm going to my favorite corner of the world.
It's entirely too warm here to be called the name of this month in the northern hemisphere. But... a front is coming that is to lower temps somewhat. Enjoy your day and I hope it's just perfect for you:) *hugs*-di
It's a new year with new possibilities! And so far everything is going my way. How about you? Any problems so far?
I know this probably never happens to you, but I forgot where I was going with all this. I know I wasn't going to drink more water right now as I have had too much already this morning. Oh, that was coffee.
I remember we were talking about... the weather and whether or not to let the plants get rain with the possibility of wind damage, hail, tornado, or cold temperatures. Maybe I was just going to water indoor plants.
At least I only work 4 more days and then the new person will start on January 9th. I'll be able to watch TCU vs Georgia and stay up late (like I do anyways). I already miss working with Kelly though!
It's a new day and a new year. Welcome to 2023! I hope we can start off the year with our legs under us and that we can jump over any hurdles that get in our way. Just want to say that your friendship means the world to me. So let's do something fun together, like climb a tree. You go first and I'll be right there.
It looks like Christmas is over and Santa is celebrating in a warmer climate somewhere. How about you?
What a wonderful surprise! I sure hope you got just what you wanted and if not at least just what you needed.
Even 100 years ago most kids got just what they wanted. Boy, what they wanted was surely different back then though wasn't it?
Times have changed. Even just a few years ago, people made an effort to get to Church on Christmas Eve, no matter what, where, or weather. Reminiscing on the year 2022 is done...
We are nearing the end of December and the end of 2022. I hope the whole month of December was magic for you and that you enjoyed it to the fullest. As we start a new year, I hope you are ready for the best year of your life. I am excited to be off until Tuesday, January 3rd. I should find out that week how much longer I will be working, probably only a couple more weeks. I'll let you know soon.
