It is Thursday and the weekend is getting closer. Let's find something fun to do today.
Instead of sitting on a bench, let's sit here on this tree in Hawaii and visit.
We can take a road trip in our minds. Were you ever into the Hippie era? I still love long hair on guys. And boy did our parents hate it. Kind of like we feel about a man bun now. Sorry if you have one.
Did you ever stop on the side of the road to eat... not at a roadside park but on the tailgate of your station wagon? I still love those cars. Remember the ones with the back seat facing the rear view?
I will admit that I LOVE Mopar and the bigger the engine and the faster it goes, the more I like it. We both still have our motorcycle endorsement on our drivers license even though neither of us own one anymore.
Some things last forever, like Multnomah Falls. Some things get more valuable with time, like old cars.
Some people age well... like my girlfriend and I shopping and having a fun time together.
Then some things just get better with time, like Robert and I. I love him more every day. I hope you are as blessed as I am.
After coffee, let's take a trip outside today. What shall we explore?
Oh look! Birds have laid eggs. Babies are hatching. "I am all alone! I am hungry! Where are you?"
"Stop yelling! I am here now. I am working as fast as I can to feed you!"
"How many are in there? How can you all be hungry at the same time?"
"I think I found a new home for us." Have you seen any babies yet this Spring?
Our neighbor next door has been sharing the new family of birds (eggs to hatchlings) that need a new home instead of in their security camera. Can't wait to find out what kind of birds!
But maybe their old home was turned into a flower pot. Great ideas for tea pots, don't you think? I do hope you enjoy my rants. I love you all.
May you, your children, your grandchildren, and all your family & friends know Jesus and may we all meet one day in Heaven. Don't forget to share Him with those you love!
We started the morning at 5 am at 77° and we are now 52° and still dropping.
I guess we are all in agreement with that statement. We had a thunderstorm and LOTS of lightning beginning way before daylight as the cold front came through.
One again, we were blessed. We were on the very edge and only got 2/10" of rain this morning.
Spring is here and there are some plants that are showing us their beautiful colors. However, it is so windy that any tulips that have come up are probably laying on the ground now.
Sunshine one day and a cold north wind the next. We have been above 90 and will be back in the 40's for several nights.
All we can do is share our smile with everyone we meet. I will be working tomorrow before the long weekend starts on Good Friday. See you soon.
Welcome to April. It is the beginning of a new month. And it is almost time for what? Easter of course!
I think that Easter has always been my favorite time of year. As a child, I had a Peter Rabbit that went everywhere I went.
I remember that Peter Rabbit got left behind in a motel once and had to be mailed back to me. Did you have a favorite blanket or stuffed animal?
We have bunnies all around us where we live but my dogs don't like them in our backyard. When bunnies are discovered, they have to run fast for safety outside of our fence.
Run! Hide! Seek! My dogs can still smell you, Mr Bunny! Do you hide eggs and do you color eggs?
Weekend is here! Happy Caturday! What are your plans?
Come on... you have to have something up your sleeve today or tomorrow.
Do you have all your grocery shopping done? Maybe you're going to Market Days with 400 vendors like my friend is doing today.
And her best friend is the Queen of shopping! They both always look their best.
Weather you are all dressed up for a weekend trip to do something exciting or to visit family or friends,
Or just staying at home watching sports, reading a book, or talking on the phone with friends, please remember to say a prayer for all those in the line of storms yesterday. There were 57 tornadoes reported over 7 states in 20 hours.
Here we are again... Friday. Do you have any special plans for today or for the weekend?
Whatever you do, I hope you do something special for someone else. Make their day!
May you and a special friend are going to get together just to have a drink and visit.
Or maybe you and a group of friends are going shopping together for something special you have been looking for and you need some honest advice.
Then again, even if it gets dark, find someone who will go with you to pick up stars that have fallen from the sky. Blessings upon blessing to you whatever you do.
Guess what I saw yesterday afternoon? YES!!! Now they have fresh food too!
Come on over and get some nectar. It is fresh and delicious. Don't you know that it is Spring and the flowers are beginning to bloom.
Aren't they just amazing creations of God? They are truly a unique creature just like you and I are unique.
They are so much fun to watch. It is something I never tire of doing. And as soon as we just get some sunshine, I'll be out in the backyard watching them.
Well, here's looking at you. I am off to attempt to mow and bag the yard which is mostly weeds.
I am posting late today, so I thought when you read this we could just sit for a while and talk or maybe even solve the problems of the world as the sun kisses the water.
Think about things we did wrong and instead of worrying about them just find a way to do them differently this time. What goes around comes around again.
Then, think about, what if we had gotten what we asked for. It might have led us down a terrible path. Instead of the wonderful journey we are on now after blessings of getting what we really needed all along.
So get out there and share your kindness with others that might be having a bad day and might desperately need your smile or your help and need you to show them there are still lots of good people in this world.
