Blessings of rain to start the new week. We ended up with almost 1-1/2" rain. Of course, it was from 10 pm to 4 am with high winds, thunder and lightning. So one dog vibrated the entire night. Of course she is sound asleep now!
Early voting is this week only in Texas for the Party Runoff election and Election Day next Tuesday. We will probably vote tomorrow. Also our vehicle inspections and registrations are due this month and next month. So we have a busy week in store.
We have already had 10 days of over 90° in the DFW area for May with 5 more predicted. And several more high temperature records will be broken, 97°.
A beautiful Monday to you. I have a feeling I will be spending as much time as I can out of doors for it is such a glorious spring day. May you have a pleasant week. Smiles Gloria
Hubby got a new belt on the lawn mower yesterday evening so I got the backyard mowed. Today he is already washing my car and will probably wash the orange Tahoe too.
Even after 2 cups of coffee, I am moving slowly. I walked around the backyard and decided I really need to spray for bugs. So I came in to the computer room instead. We are already 80 and have 7 days or more of mid 90's with light winds.
Now I can hardly wait to hear from you and see what you are doing this weekend. After all, just one more cup of coffee should get me started.
It has been a good day so far. We got several of our todos completed already. And yesterday at work was fun as always with Kelly there.
I can't believe how fast the weeds are growing. We just got mulch put down and here the weeds are peaking through. We are going to be in my mid 90's for the next 7 days. Where did Spring go? In a week or two, kids will be out of school! The beach will soon be crowded.
Well, whatever you are doing this weekend, have fun and share your smile. Hopeful Hubby will get the riding lawn mower deck cutting again. Guess I had better fix a late lunch or early dinner before I water my plants (note the milkweed in this picture for the Monarch butterflies).
Nancy, I miss the cooler weather to read on the patio. Now I just sweat when I am out there reading. hehehe!
My goodness this week sure went by fast doing this and that each day. May you have a glorious weekend that is coming up sharing your smiles. Now where did I put my coffee cup this time.
Goodness daydreaming for it is in my hand as I am looking out trying to see a dandelion. Smiles Gloria
A nice rainy morning in our area. Now where did I put my rain boots so I can splash in the puddles. I like that happy thought. May you have a nice day loving life and all the beauty around you as you share your smile with all. Smiles Gloria

I had to be outside real early this morning to catch this beautiful sunrise, 6:20 am. Now, don't be shocked, but I haven't been back outside since then. And even more shocking is that I cooked today.
Boneless, skinless chicken thighs and Carrot Zucchini Casserole from Allrecipes. I know, crazy good. But today I am feeling guilty because I work tomorrow. hehehe
Tomorrow while you are enjoying the day, I will have makeup and real clothes on (still in my gown now!) and Hubby will have leftovers! If I can save up enough $ to go to the grocery store and buy cabbage, my next recipe is from happygirl44, Shirley, called Cheesy Ritz Cabbage Casserole. I found one similar on RecipeLion. Of course it may be a while because I sure don't want everyone thinking that I often cook.
Thanks for being my friend and I'll be back in a day or two.
We have a glorious sunny day and the temps in the 50's. Spring is in the air and the grass is getting greener and greener each day. Yes this is going to be a very nice day to do this and that around the home and yard. May you have a precious day just enjoying the moment. Smiles Gloria

We had a wonderful, fun time with lots of laughter. I hope your Mother's Day was just as special. Just a couple more weeks and school will be out.
Today we are taking turns with the push mower on our 3/4 acre lot. Ok, I am taking turns on the gas self-propelled mower and Hubby is doing both gas and electric. It is very humid and warm for this fat girl.
May you have a glorious spring day. The Monday is starting out with some rain showers as the lilac bushes are starting to bud out more and more around the yard. My my what a breathtaking site to see as one waits for the flowers to show up and smell the lilacs as spring comes in more and more. Smiles Gloria
