With all the ups and downs of temperatures, with snow, rain, and sunshine we welcome February.  

Have you ever thought of the extremes and records set in the past?  So, from 93° to -2° is a big difference.  Welcome to Texas!  

Yesterday Rbt gave our girls all a bath and then took them to get their nails grinded down.  They were so happy!  

My indoor flowers are loving the new grow light and some sunshine.  Orchid, Christmas Cactus and Anthurium are all blooming in this photo!  

And some of our plants that are under the plastic are blooming too.  Just look at those strawberry plants.  Last year I got a record crop as I have had these plants for at least 4 years or more.  Clouds, Rain and Cooler temps are in the forecast.  

Happy Thursday!  Smile Friday!  and Sadder Day coming soon! 

Happy February too!   

This Thursday is a Dog's Life.  Some dogs have it made and just lay around, eat treats and watch their iPad all day.  

Some days you just don't want to get out of bed and even if you do, you just don't seem to get anythng done.  

One in a while you just have a day that is depressing and sad.  Even though that is his look every day.  

Then a friend comes along online or for a visit and it changes your whole day!  Friends are like that when they share their love with you.  

We have arrived at the middle of the week.  Today is our last day of mostly sunny weather.  The clouds move back in tomorrow and rain will be here for the weekend.  

So today we will enjoy the beach as we will be in the upper 60's again today.  

Let's walk under the palm trees as the sun comes up in all of the glorious colors of daybreak.  

Maybe we will be lucky enough to see the dolphins jump for joy as the colors blend from sky to water.  I love you Cricket!  

As we take one last look at the end of the day, may you be completely Seahabilitated and at peace for a restful night of slumber.  

Hello, May the light of this new day fill you with 

 blessings,Happy Wednesday, to your life, your

 home, and your family,May today be filled

 with good thoughts, kind people, and moments of 

happiness, enjoy,your day, to your liking,

 and never lose your smiles,I send you big hugs, Maria,

take care.............................

One of my favorite days!  Tacos!!!  and  SUNSHINE!!!  Sunday night we had a beautiful full moon.  

No better way to start the day than to have sun in your eyes and watch the sunflowers follow the sun as it moves across the sky.  

This is already true for many kids that can't read cursive!  Some grandparents love sending cards to their grands that can't read it.  I could name names!  

I would not trade a second of the time we grew up in and the memories we made.  I feel sorry for kids growing up in the world of today.  

Let's ride off into a day of looking back when times were so much simpler with our memories of yesteryear!  I dream of Jeannie!  

Have a reflective week, Wendy.  Hugs

Let us start the week off right!  It is a matter of attitude.  How do we do that?

How about thinking of something or watching something that puts a smile on your face?  Did it work?  

Do you ever wonder why you are here?  I do and I wonder what I still need to accomplish while I am here.  What is my purpose?  

It takes teamwork most days and positive words from those we talk to and consider our friends.  

Thank you for being my friend and for shining your light to make the world brighter.  

Hello, I send you all my positive energies, so that

I WISH you, the best WISHES, your FRIEND, who appreciates

Sunday is here and it is supposed to be SUNNY.  We might have 2 days in a row with the possibility of a third day before the clouds show up again.  

Can you feel it, the sunshine?  It is such an amazing feeling.  Our dogs spend so much time outside when the sun is shining on their bed on the patio.  

Even when the temperatures are cold, the dogs know the importance of sunshine warming their bodies and getting vitamin D naturally.  

The natural instinct of animals is amazing!  They also know that love is the most powerful of all.  

Always choose to share love.  Let it seep from deep within you to everyone you encounter.  Blessings & Hugs!  

Hope you have something fun planned for the weekend!  We have had rain on and off since yesterday afternoon.  Looking forward to sunshine on Sunday. 

Maybe you are doing something special with the someone you love!  

Perhaps you are resting up today so you can take your loved one out on the town tonight!  

So Happy Caturday!  Enjoy the entire day, night and weekend!  

hello, there is room to love when there is humility

in our hearts, today can be a day of positive changes in

your relationships and love to flow. Happy Saturday. with 

 all my love, take care, kisses, and

big hugs, maria

Friday is here already!  Where did the week go?  We actually ran errands and the pantry is stocked up again!  

I thought I had better take an extra minute to check on each of you!  How was your week?  

Some of you have had rain this week instead of snow.  Did you see any beautiful lightning?  

Or maybe you saw a beautiful rainbow!  Have you ever seen both at the same time?  I haven't.  

We had thunder only once this week with no lightning.  Maybe we will get both this evening.  I do enjoy it a lot!  Hope you are ready for the weekend because here it comes.  I hope it is warm enough to go out to play in our last rain!  

Just dropping in to say Hi. Its been a busy day. I took my son to the doctor this afternoon since his wife had to work. He is doing good. Just gets easily tired as he is using a walker to get around and not crutches. He feels more stable with a walker. I hope you are having a good afternoon/evening wherever you may live. The sun finally came out today. We had fog again this morning as I was making my way up to see my son this morning. He and his wife live in Kansas. Its just a 30 minute drive from where we live in Oklahoma. Well take care my friend and keep my son in your prayers. Hugs, Cheryl

Cardinals are beautiful in every season.  Their colors really "pop" in winter.  

Are you still getting a lot of snow?  We have been a bit warmer and are getting rain.  

How much is too much for you?  Is it time to dig your way out?  

At least some share their responsibilities and take turns helping to raise young ones.  Or like in our home, one cooks and the other one cleans up.  

I hope that warms your heart as much as it does mine!  Blessings & Hugs to you and your loved ones!  

HELLO , With much LOVE I wish you a HAPPY THURSDAY.

Live LIFE with JOY, because behind a SMILE LIFE

looks much BETTER.May everything happen to you today,

friend, and may everything be  good. Kisses, Maria
