Here we are getting ready to start a new week. Looking back on the weekend and wondering what fun did you have?
Did you watch the sun rise with a friend on FaceTime? And get to see the deer run across the road, about 9 of them?
Did you get to see your son dance with his daughters at a Granger Smith concert at Billy Bob's? And just beam with pride!
Did you get to spend the day with friends and eat the most delicious brunch in Tyler? And share your smile with a stranger on the street that led to a beautiful conversation.
Have you ever joined in prayer with a service dog? Peyton is Bill's service dog that does so many things to help him every day.
Have you been to a candy store that makes all their own candy? Our friends took us to the Lindale Candy Store and you would think you were in Heaven surrounded by chocolate and marshmallows. If you like that kind of thing!
Yes, we are very blessed and have given the Lord lots of Thank You prayers for our safe travels, for family, and for our precious friends... like you!
It is Friday! Let's sing about it. The weekend is closing in on us. What are you going to do?
Is it time for a haircut? Or just a new look?
Do you ever have a spa day? Tomorrow we are going to visit friends that moved about an hour or two away from us and see their new house. Of course lunch will be involved even though they say there aren't any places to eat. HA!
But we will all be together and enjoy lots of conversation and share lots of smiles as new memories are being made!
So yesterday, I got new ColorStreet nails put on. So what do you think? Does this look like Easter? Here is a close up.
Today was a very busy day. Lots of time I don't leave the house for days, maybe even a week or more. Today I was out of the house by 8:15 and headed for Dr. Carey's office for Julie to draw my blood for my yearly checkup. Just getting through Rockwall and across the Lake Ray Hubbard bridge is a challenge. Almost considered "free" parking coming and going the 20 miles each direction. I did have to stop next door to the doctors office and get a hanging basket, a geranium and a couple of other plants. So it was after 10 when I got back home. Then it was off to Costco to return something and get a few things on our list... Ok I ended up with a lot more than was on the list.
Costco has the most beautiful roses. Back home to unload and put things in the freezer. Then I was off to Royse City to run the car through the car wash as I was having trouble seeing out the backup camera and rear window. I did much better only getting things on the list at WalMart. After a stop at WhatABurger it was back home for the 3rd time.
Of course, the best part of coming home is the reception you get when you walk in the door. Everybody is so happy to see you. And that is just the way I feel when I come to "The Hill" and read your comments. BLESSED!
HOPE ALL IS WELL FOR YOU THERE NANCY, WE HAD RAIN THIS MORNING BUT THE AFTERNOON HAS BEEN JUST LOVELY WITH MUCH SUNSHINE. HAVE A GOOD THURSDAY. HUGS MOE
Good Grief! I am very tired of the winds and they are COLD out of the far north! Would someone please shut the door?
Come on Easter! Don't you agree that after Easter the freezes are usually over? I am so anxious for warmer weather to be able to work outside and enjoy getting my Vitamin D from the sunshine.
I sure hope your weather is better than ours has been and that you are out there sharing your smile and enjoying this Spring.
This was us yesterday. The wind was blowing so very hard in every direction. I didn't think the umbrella would hold up on the short trip to the mailbox. Sun is supposed to shine but it is MOSTLY cloudy so far today. We were blessed with 1.5" of rain. I hope you saw the links I posted in a Bulletin. So many people with homes burnt to the ground from fires and others with no roof or not much left from tornadoes. Please keep all in your prayers.
Springtime in Texas! Wildfires, High Winds, 80° to 30° temperatures, 2" Rains after Ice Storms. Somehow we got the yard mowed & bagged all the dried grass. Well, not all of it because dogs come in the doggy door covered in dried grass after rolling around outside. Then on a calm wind day, we got the fertilizer spread before the next rain.
This weekend we watched college baseball, softball and boys and girls basketball (Longhorns won their matches). Also the dogs all four got a bath and they are thrilled or not.
Sure hope you are enjoying Spring weather and the weekend. Share your Smile and know that I am sending you lots of
Stormy looking weather yesterday evening. Wednesday we were above 80° and working just a little in the backyard, I broke a sweat. Thursday we got the yard mowed; all the dead grass bagged up and ready for trash pick up.
Of course it is much cooler today. And we still have to put fertilizer down probably this weekend before we have a chance of rain on Monday. I am anxiously awaiting April when I should be able to move plants out from under the plastic into the trees and the yard.
You know... head 'em up and move 'em out. Yes, right now I think I am ready for summer. Yee Haw!
Are you wearing green? I am wearing orange (big surprise) with maybe a hint of hidden green.
I know! I can wear a hat. Do you have a hat to wear?
OK! Everybody looks like they are ready to go to the St. Patrick's Day party. Do we have to bring something to eat? I want something green to drink, maybe green tea!
Do you know what time you will be here to pick me up for the parade and the party? Which pair of dancing shoes are you wearing? May I have this dance?
Midway through the week and washing lots of muddy dog towels. Yes, we forgot to put the doggy door on first thing this morning.
Do you have any magic up your sleeve? Or anything magical planned for St. Patrick's Day tomorrow? Will you be wearing green?
Cats may be finicky eaters but I bet they don't come in with muddy feet or mud caked between their toes! Thank goodness it is warm and they can stay outside until we get everything vacuumed and mopped. Then they will all get a bath and we will start the entire process over again.
It might be just one of those days! Do you know what to do to change that? Share your smile with others.
After our 1" of rain we are smiling except when the dogs come in the doggy door with wet and sometimes muddy feet. Then they do something cute and irresistible and make us smile again.
