Would you believe I have a pair of red heart shaped sunglasses? Well, I do! And I already feel about the way that guy looks. At 9:30 it was only 79° but after 30 minutes outside watering, I came in with water running in my eyes (SWEAT). Yes it is Humid!
I am grateful for my plants and my friends. Most all my plants are really doing very good this year. I still have a few Bluebonnets blooming in the front flowerbed around the mailbox. And the milkweed plant (for Monarch Butterflies) just opened about half the pods and I gathered seeds and put them in an envelope to share with others.
The weekend is almost over but the sunshine is not. So we just have to sing the song and enjoy every day. Do you have a favorite pair of sunglasses?
Of course my favorite ones are orange. I have so many pairs to choose from and I rarely wear them at all. I got a few chores done today like hummingbird feeders refilled, indoor plants watered, a new block of bird seed put out (probably for the squirrel), and I always have several plants outside that are wilted.
Now as it is getting near sunset I am sure I will go out and take some pictures as I wonder what the rest of the world has done today. I love both sunrise and sunset! Which is your favorite and why?
The Arlington/Mansfield area had around 5" rain yesterday afternoon where we had 1/10". Get ready, we are due upper 90's for the next week starting tomorrow. The "feel like" temperature will be over 100.
Goodbye to cooler temperatures and cloudy days for a while. Ready or not, here comes summer and what perfect timing with school out. I must admit, I am NOT ready for the electric bill next month.
It is almost time for Longhorn softball and then Longhorn baseball. So I had better get lunch served.
This is so true for me and it is very obvious because I don't look like this anymore.
Now let's get on with the weekend after all it is FRIDAY!
After all, there is no better way to enjoy it than fishing and napping!
My now 53 year old son and my Mom. And that pond is where my fish came from too. Sure do miss those days! So let's get out and enjoy the weekend and make some more memories!
Mowed yard this morning! Visited with Kyle Kid! Visited with Gloria (sunnysmile4u) in Canada via Alexa (like FaceTime). And I just can't decide which graphic to send to you... so pick the one you like best.
Now time for Grilled Cheese and Cherry Pie! Then I'll ready for a while until temperature and humidity go down!
Where does the time go? Half the year is almost gone! And here I am to share my Blessings with you again. I know you are grabbing some!
Last Friday I drove an hour to a mall in Frisco just to see my girls and to spend some quality time with my precious DIL, Evelyn. Nicole # 4 in gold top and Michelle # 6 in flowered top. After lunch at the CheeseCake Factory, they all went off in their own groups and I went with Evelyn to return the 2 dresses that Nicole didn't keep.
I am the luckiest girl in the world to have such an AWESOME husband. That sly grin turns into a beautiful smile and the most wonderful laugh!
Thank you for prayers for Kyle Kid, George! He called earlier today and is home from the hospital after the aFib episode. I looked for his picture from several years ago where he won an award from the school but haven't found it yet. Besides, I thought this was a great picture of how much fun he had as a crossing guard. The newspaper went to the school and took a bunch of pictures of him for a special story they did. Please continue to keep him in your prayers as he will find out about continuing the radiation treatments and the chemo pill he is taking that is affecting his vision which is why he isn't on The Hill very much right now.
Just want to say "Thank you for your sacrifice and service!" to all, especially those that gave their life. Many people do things everyday that affect us in one way or another and they don't even realize it. And thanks to all those in other countries that support our Memorial Day. All of them have family and friends that have served.
Quick update on Kyle Kid... I talked to George on the phone just a bit ago. He is still in the hospital because of the AFib episode. But he sounded much stronger than he did last week. Thanks for your prayers!

It is a long weekend for a reason. Please remember what it is all about. Talk about it to your kids, to everyone.
I am so excited for Derrick to now have his new best friend and service dog. If you don't have a charity, please consider donating often to Patriot Paws located in Rockwall, Texas who help Veterans everywhere with service dogs. It is a wonderful organization.
Derrick and Bill are best friends. They ride the laid back bicycles and compete in lots of Veteran races over many miles, often taking more than a day.
As Derrick and Bill were riding away from our house, I realized I forgot to take a picture. Really??? Both of them are in that picture.
Please remember to say "Thank you for your Service and Sacrifice.
Are you ready to celebrate Memorial Day weekend? What a sacrifice so many families have given for each of us. I hope you have your Red, White & Blue on and are sharing your smile with everyone!
