The month is flying by and I think I have more weeds than beautiful blooming flowers. How about you? We have been so hot and so dry and even after our one day of showers the hot weather is back again.
I think I have all these flowers somewhere in my yard and not one of them is blooming or looks this happy! I have lost a few of my favorites this year.
Have you ever seen a Skeleton Flower that turns from white to Translucent when it gets wet? God is truly amazing! Don't forget to share your smile and share Blessings too!
Sunday is such an awesome day of the week. Time to relax and reflect on the past week and look forward to the start of another week of new possibilities.
New memories to be made for the young and old. New ways to share our love with each other and to make each other laugh out loud.
Make the most of today and remember to tell your friends and family how much they mean to you each and every day.

The change always comes about mid-August, and it always catches me by surprise. I mean the day when I know that summer is fraying at the edges, that September isn't far off and fall is just over the hill or up the valley. ~Hal Borland
May you have a wonderful day enjoying the moment. We are at 61 for the temp on this beautiful morning. I have decided to have a refreshing cup of Cherry Blossom green tea to make my day even more special. What ever you will be doing do have a great day. Smiles Gloria
Tea elevates our minds so that we can see our problems from a distance — through the fine mists of contemplation. ~Terri Guillemets
Instead of wearing a tree, how about living in a treehouse? Do you think a permanent home in a tree would be fun or would it get old?
How about a vacation in a treehouse? Would it be nice to get away for a while and disconnect? I think it would depend on the view.
One of my son's friends, Doug Thron, built this tree house in California, I believe it was in the mid 1990's. He was an activist for the Headwaters Forest. He is now a very famous Drone Aerial Cinematographer who is now saving animals in Ukraine. You have probably seen his drone work on National Geographic (Shark week) or his videos on YouTube.
Good Morning! I need some advice today... Does this tree make me look fat? Now I need an honest answer.
I mean, after all, I spotted this tree first. And I really thought that I would have people staring at me if I wore it. Don't you agree?
Maybe this tree looks better on me. What do you think? I am so glad we are friends and I can trust you to tell me the truth.
I have been trying to stay away from bright colors like in this tree. OK, it might have been the lightning that I was trying to stay away from. But after 65 days with no rain, I might just have to throw caution to the wind. Can't wait to hear your suggestions!
Goodness it feels like fall is trying to come in . A smile is on my face. Cooler day and night temps and I am so happy. The tiger lilies are in bloom in the flowerbeds and they are the last flowers to show up as fall is trying to come in.
My how I love all the 4 seasons and all of its surprises as each season comes into view. May your week be ever so kind to you. Smiles Gloria
Treat everyone with politeness, even those who are rude to you — not because they are nice, but because you are. ~Author unknown
Do you EVER have one of those mornings? You know, you wake up to problems. Then several hours later you are finally ready to start your day and still need some coffee.
I guess it really started at 12:45 am. The dogs all decided to bark and run out the doggie door after waking up the entire neighborhood. Thank goodness I fell asleep early watching a movie and already had 3 hours sleep by then. Went back to sleep for another three hours after finishing the movie.
Ok! So now let's get this week started.
Monday Monday... so good to me!
After all, it only has to get better and I hope you sing like Mama Cass song all day long now!
It is so HOT that fake plants are the only thing that might be alive right now. If you walk on the grass next to the driveways, it just CRUNCHES under your feet. There is no green anywhere.
Our friends have flown the coop. Ok, they are driving back to Lubbock. Just say a prayer that the doctors find out the cause of her balance problems. She just wants a solution so she doesn't end up not being able to walk.
They drove off and I just collapsed on Hubby's shoulder. I cried for a while. I already miss them so much. I used to do that everytime my son drove away. But we will see them again... until then our love will continue to grow!
HI DEBIJO, SORRY DIDN'T GET TO YOU LAST WEEKEND OR SOONER AS IT HAS BEEN SO HOT OVER HERE AND MY AIR CONDITIONER WENT ON THE BLINK FOR A FEW DAYS. OKAY NOW AND GLAD OF THAT AT IT IS GOING TO WARM UP AGAIN HERE FOR ANOTHER COUPLE OF WEEKS. WE HAVE 100 FIRES BURNING UP HERE, AND I SUPPOSE MORE TO COME IF WE GET MORE THUNDER AND LIGHTNING STORMS.
