I hope you are having the most wonderful Tuesday!  

I am almost ready for our company to show up.  OK, we don't have company coming but we are going to eat Tacos today.  

But you never know when someone might show up and then the excitement begins.  

Don't you wish you could get that excited over doing laundry or taking the dog for a walk?  

Whatever you do today, don't forget to laugh and to share your smile with others.  

A great weekend was had by all but now it is Monday and back to reality.  Just thought I would share my granddaughter's 17th pool party!  

My family plays sand volleyball most of the year in a family league.  Volleyball is always fun even in the water.  

Everyone in the hot tub was celebrating.  Time for cake now!  

Time for the movie to start.  It seems everyone is ready.  They bought a blow up screen which is much better than a sheet.  

Wayne did an awesome job putting the lights around the inside of the pool and I love watching the colors change on the video he took.  

We are surely blessed with all of our kids and their families.  

Hello, Have a BEAUTIFUL MONDAY,

Let's start the WEEK with JOY,

life is only one, and we must savor it,

every day, with OPTIMISM, and the WILL to live.

SMILE!! No one else will do it for you,

may your day be full of energy and joy,

big kisses, Maria, take care

Caturday is finally here again!  

Guess who is coming to visit you today and spend the whole weekend with you?  

The surprise is on you because I'm not home!  I am off on a leaf hunt!  

Hope your weekend will be full of fun and laughs!  

You better enjoy the warm weather and go swimming before a cold front arrives next week.  We might set a record of 96° on Sunday.  My granddaughter had a pool party last night and they watched a movie on the screen at the end of the pool.  

Hello, may your Friday be ideal and beautiful, I wish you
with all my heart that you have a good day and that you
enjoy it to your liking, I wish you a great day,
great kisses, take care, Maria kisses

Every morning, not just Thursday morning is time to refill the bowl.  

It is apple picking time somewhere and apples fun to play with as well as delicious to eat.  

There are lots of fun things to do in the Fall.  Do you want to join me?  

I love sunflowers, don't you?  What do you mean you didn't plant them for me to dig up?  

All of our dogs are kind and they love us so much!  

Isn't that the truth?

It is not often, very rare, that I have a tough day.  However, today is one of those.  It is a weepy day for me.  We have a friend who lives in Tampa and told us they were not leaving.  

I saw this post from Brad Barton and I am sharing it.  

Attention

Every hour at the top of the hour please take a moment to Pray:

Father God, we humble ourselves before you & ask that you see to it that the schemes & plans of the enemy are cancelled . That no attempts by the forces of darkness to harm your precious creation, your children, your planet shall succeed.

We ask that you surround the State of Florida with a hedge of protection & that you expose all the plans & doers of wickedness and that only YOUR will and the agenda of Heaven be done on earth.

Amen

Tuesday and the blessings are flowing your way today!  

I am believing that Autumn will show up in Texas sometime this month and bring rain.  

Don't give up hoping and praying for things to come.  

Things will happen in His timing and for a future that we do not yet understand.  

Sometimes when you ask Him why, you will get an answer.  Just keep believing!  

There is always JOY in your future!  

Hello. Your new week begins, as you

wish, that it be better than mine,

I wish it from the bottom of my heart. 

It begins a new week, just as the sunrise

 begins a new day and a SMILE,

because it is your life and only YOU decide

 undertake turn out well, I leave you with 

much love,and big hugs, Maria, kisses

Monday, first day of a new week and the first Monday of October.  

The sun is softly peeking in on most of you this morning.  Flowers are still blooming this time of year.  

Share some flowers with someone today.  Do something wonderful for someone everyday.  

It is all about loving each and every person just like God loves you.  

Life is about finding joy in the simple actions and seeing joy all around you.  

At the end of the day, can you look back and smile and not only count your blessings but the blessings you gave to others?  Thank you for being my blessing!  

Good Morning!  It's Saturday!  

Have you seen my relative?  The Okapi is rarely seen.  

Someone took a picture of me.  Aren't I looking good?  

My Uncle had someone color a picture of him to hang above the mantle.  

My grandmother had a quilt made from one of her pictures.  

Now the cousins from Canada did an AI generated picture of themselves.  

I am heading to a Balloon party with friends now so I will catch you later.  

Good Thursday Morning!  Are you on your computer like I am?  

Everyday is a new challenge and there are many new blessings too.  

I love making others smile and doing something nice for them.  

Then watching the joy show up on their face just doing simple things and enjoying life.  

Just look at your reflection!  I see how beautiful you are and I hope you do too.  

I am just checking to make sure that the coast is clear.  It is Tuesday after all.  

Yes, it is also October!  How did we already get here?  Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years will be over in the blink of an eye.  

I'm not going to lie, I am ready for Winter to be OVER.  It is my least favorite or not a favorite at all.  

Maybe I could just find a good place to hibernate until winter was over.  Here I am stressing through winter when Fall isn't even staying in Texas right now.  

Maybe if I don't mention the "W" word it will just skip us this year.  But I guess we have to go through some things to see the reward that is next... Spring! ah!  

I really shouldn't worry about what might come.  Lord, let me just stop and count my Blessings and say Thank You!  

Good morning, Every new day can be a new

beginning in our lives. May your Tuesday be

very prosperous. Enjoy this beautiful

day in peace and harmony. Take on new challenges

or continue with the energy you have

in your progress. Have a full day of happiness,

success, and never lose your beautiful

smile. Big hugs, Maria.take,care.........

It's a new week and almost a new month.  Fall is hiding from us as we will be back in the low 90's all of this week.  

I am praying for so many that lost family and friends and those that are still without power and much more.  Let's give thanks for the blessings we still have.  

Then ask the angels to be there for all that need help and need to feel loved.  

Do what you can to help those in need and remember prayers really matter!
