It is Tuesday and we are off and running errands today.  Yes, we will get Tacos sometime today.  

So we will put smiles on our faces and be the light with everyone we meet today because...  

Today is supposed to be just a bit warmer and there is a slight chance of rain tomorrow.  

After all, it is up to us how we feel about each and every day.  

Now share that feeling with everyone you meet.  

this little cutie was waiting

for me this morning at the

barn when i went out to feed

the animals this morning...

hope your day starts as

mine did...mk

Good Monday Morning!  I don't think that I am ready to get rid of Fall.  I am not liking these early morning cold temperatures.  

I know these are AI and I am not a big fan of AI.  I do use them and sometimes it is hard to tell what is real now.  

But I really do miss my Hummingbirds.  I still have lots of other birds in the backyard, but Hummers are just special.  

Almost as special as a Giraffe!  However, a giraffe takes up a lot more space and they eat a lot more too.  

I guess the Hummingbirds all have found warmer weather by now and are happy to have found fresh nectar.  

I will be excited when they come back in the Spring and build nests and have babies to come visit year after year.  

Good Sunday Morning!!!  It is December!  The most wonderful time of the year and the last month of 2024!  

Here we are at a crossroads again.  The last day of November.  Tomorrow will be the LAST month of 2024.  Time flies faster and faster.  

Our Grandson, Will, can see things before I do.  He is an awesome 18 year old Senior who loves Jesus and tells others all about Him.  At 6'7" and 220 pounds he is very good at Martial Arts and the most helpful to his Gram and Grandpa.  He is a blessing to us!  

We had a wonderful week of Thanksgiving and I pray that you did too!  Now let's say Goodbye to November as Christmas and the New Year will be here and gone in the blink of an eye!  Blessings & Hugs to you and your families!  Pam

It is Black Friday.  Ok, the sales have been going on for several weeks already.  So I feel like they are just leading us on.  Now that our Thanksgiving is over, no more pumpkins or Fall.  

Now here we are waiting for Christmas and thinking of putting up decorations as the warm temperatures are now a thing of the past for most.  

There have been some beautiful days in between the temperatures changing.  So why does it feel like we went from one extreme to the other?  

The birds all seem to adapt to "whatever comes next" in the weather.  

So we say goodbye to Autumn and get prepared for Winter.  Well, are we ever really ready for Winter?  

Now I have to go build a fire, oh we don't have a fireplace.  So it might be time to turn the heater on.  I wish you a wonderful beginning of the weekend with lots of Blessings & Hugs.  Pam

HUGS, MOE

I would like to think that I am going to do something constructive or worthwhile but after coffee and shower, not sure much else will happen.  

A friend sent me this and I think this could be a possibility if it wasn't so cold here.  

After all, remember I am working tomorrow, so today I need to relax and rest up in case it is a stressful day.  

When all else fails, watch a PureFlix movie or read a Christian book.  Doesn't that sound like a great Thursday idea?  

Make this Wednesday the day you take care of yourself first.  Then you will be able to take care of others too.  

After all, you are always needed by someone else.  You are important to so many.  

If you see someone in need, help them.  Sometimes we just need help to survive in this world.  

Isn't it nice when you have friends who are there for you at all different times in your life?  

And friends that warn you when danger is around are some of the best friends you can ever have.  

Thanks for being my friend and always being here for me when I need help.  Now take good care of yourself today and every day because, after all, you are special.  

Tuesday and we had over an inch of rain this week!  Woo Hoo!  

Today the sun should shine brightly!  So it is time to get out and do something fun!  

I better go back in and get a jacket if I am staying outside for very long at least until it warms up.  

It will be a little too cool to play in the water later this week.  But I could always run back in and sit in your lap a while to warm up.  

Do you have a blanket to dry me off or to warm me up?  

Most of this week will be wonderful just to snuggle up together!  

Good Monday Morning!  I love that my poinsettias are changing colors.  

The birds were flying all through the yard yesterday.  They were enjoying the dreary and overcast weather here.  

The wind has been blowing over night and we might get some rain today.  We just don't need damaging storms.  

It will be "clean up the yard" later this week when it is cold... too cold here for November!  

Hopeful the sun will be back later this week and you are enjoying your weather.  

Have an awesome apple picking fall week with lots of  Blessings & Hugs!  Pam

I hope you enjoy my Devotional from yesterday morning!  Blessings & Hugs!  Pam

The weekend is here!  It is the middle of November... WAIT... what???  

Look, the sun is already up!  What a glorious day for a blessed weekend!   We are starting this day at 45°.  

My favorite color of all the seasons!  ORANGE!!! Don't look so surprised.  

The winds keep blowing the dry dirt (and leaves) everywhere around us this dry fall.  Sad to see the ponds in the area below half full.  

Then you come upon a site so beautiful and your heart warms you from head to toe.  

Then you stop and give Thanks!  

"Thank Goodness God is with me!"  Can you imagine what the day would be like if He wasn't there?  

There are days where trouble just seems to follow you no matter what you are doing!  

If you could just stay in bed all day and dream of something good, like a delicious T-bone!  

If you do go outside, no matter where you go or what you do, He is with you and usually has sent someone along to watch and protect you.  

I'm not saying the road is always smooth but it will all turn out in the end to be what is just right for you.  

Remember to love each other and it makes the day a great one for you and for those you love along the way.   Also, stay out of trouble.  

This is not a joke in Texas.  Some of the mums are bigger than the girls wearing them.  

They are anonymoose in Texas since we don't have any Moose roaming around.  

I love watching the kids next door play basketball.  Do you have a neighborhood watch system?  

Kids say the darndest things but some of it really makes sense when you think about it.  

We do have some high speed limits and I still drive faster than the sign says!  

Wonder if I could sell these at Thanksgiving?  

Tuesday is here and Fall is still hanging around in Texas.  I still get up before the sun comes up each day, how about you?  

Just because it is Fall doesn't mean the same thing to us as it does to some of you.  We are 75° and the days are beautiful.  Perfect for sailing a super light Hydrofoil.  

Yesterday I mowed the yard which mulched the grass, weeds, and leaves.  Then while sitting on the patio, I saw a Mockingbird, a Blue Jay getting a drink of water, a Woodpecker leaving the birdbath, and a beautiful male cardinal checking out my plants.  

Fall to us means no more 100's but we might get near 90° in November or even near Christmas.  But Ole Man Winter will show up sometime in January or February.  

I hope you are enjoying your days as much as I am enjoying each day that comes my way.  Whether you have snow or rain, whether it is your most favorite weather or least favorite, share your smile and your love!  

Monday is a new week and we face new challenges.  

Do you ever stop and think about what those that are deployed are facing?  

Then think about how lucky you are!  

Imagine what our Veterans and our Military face every minute of the day.  

Tell them, Thank you for the sacrifices that they make for us and that their families make too.  

We are starting this morning at 44° before sunrise.  WoW!  Rain and cooler temperatures all in the same week are a true blessing for us.  

Enjoy the Fall day if the temperatures are just right for you and let your Light shine brightly.  

Share your smile and your love with those you meet.  It will benefit both of you!  

Dance with someone you love every chance you get.  

I will be working again this Thursday and Friday and only responding to you as I can.  You know that I am sending Blessings & Hugs because ... 

Tuesday is finally here.  I do hope we get Tacos today.  I have errands to be run either today or tomorrow.  Then I will be working Thursday and Friday.  

This is my precious Christian friend Kelly that I work for and is a true Blessing in my life.  I love being able to help any time I am needed.  

This is my view from my desk at work.  I have 2 of those ornamental grasses in our yard and they are never that full of blooms or that beautiful.  So I am blessed to watch these blow in the wind.  

Again, we are soooo Blessed.  Aren't those pretty pumpkins.  We think our neighbor put them there.  They just showed up this week.  I planted that tree as a 3' little thing years ago to shade the mailbox.  

This is where I am right now as I put this together and send it off.  I LOVE my new "older computer" in the middle that is so fast.  My old "newer computer" is now on the left.  The extra monitor is on the right.  

And of course, the LOVE OF MY LIFE who takes such good care of me every minute of every day.  I would have a very hard time existing without him.  I pray that you know I count you as a blessing to me too!  

Good Morning!  It is Monday and I am still looking for rain.  We are supposed to have a good chance today.  

It is hard to be content when most of my friends in the area have had rain.  I know our turn will come soon!  

So rain or shine, today is a good day to give thanks for my friends and maybe just read a book.  

After all, reading can be magical and take us to places we have never been before.  

But first, I am going to go look for my rain boots in case it does rain today.  Oh, who am I kidding?  If it rains, I will be out in the driveway dancing barefoot in the rain!
