A very happy weekend to you. another beautiful day here for us and great football weather. My son came in late yesterday afternoon cut and trimmed yard again for me. Been doing it on a weekly basis. Him and daughter-in-law are such a loving family. He spent the night so we'll watch football 🏈 today. Enjoy your weekend and take care.....George
TGIF. I really did get several things done today, trash & recycle have been picked up, both of us have showered, I watered plants (already mid 80's) and hubby trimmed a tree with new pole saw.
I just have to share... My granddaughter, Nicole, is an 8th grader, she plays volleyball. Thursday, her team beat the other team 25-0. One girl on her team served the entire game. Have you ever heard of that? We are so proud of the team she is on this year. They won the weekend tournament a few weeks ago.
Anyway, I am so proud of her and winning 25-0 is something she will always have to remember.
Then, the first person I met on the Hill was Cricket in 2008. She passed away many years ago and is still having a "Woo Hoo" party with Jesus every day. But she sent me a cutting of the Angel Trumpet plant in her front yard.
And so every time the one I have blooms, I know she is watching out for me.
So now I am off and running to share my smile with everyone I see. And yes, we are going to be near record setting temperatures of low 90's.
Yesterday was a very busy day. What did I accomplish? Lots! How about you? Doesn't this weather just make you feel good enough to get lots done?!
So let us get out there today and make a joyful noise! Share with others the happiness that is in our heart. I can just see you now...
Oh wait, that looks like me singing. All I can say is that it is a good thing you can only see me and not hear me. And here is another picture of me...
Thankful Sunday! Be sure to read the bulletin that I posted that Dove (Sue) shared with me.
Boy, if we could just bottle a day like today. We started at 43° this morning and should be in the mid 70's again today. I like fall when the temperatures give us a break from the 90's and 100's ... but there is nothing like Spring when new life starts to appear and I know we are changing our time for more daylight.
So, I'm off to enjoy the last part of this weekend and see what hasn't happened yet. Hope you are doing the same as the Blessings & Hugs are being sent to you!
Top of the morning and wishing you a beautiful weekend. Got down into the 50's last night and only 70's today. Relax this weekend and share a kind word and smile....George
It is Friday and the weekend is in sight. The winds are slowly shifting from S to W and soon N. We are 78° now and "supposed" to be in the 40's for 3 nights in a row. Then a week of 50's for lows and upper 70's for highs. It will sure be nice weather for the last weekend of the Texas State Fair.
In just two weeks we will "fall back" and it will be dark by 5 pm. I really hate falling backwards. Wish we could leave the time change in the "spring forward" mode forever.
So are you almost ready for next weekend? My girls would NEVER stand for this. Well, if they knew a treat was coming they might.
I have done my part. I have changed from Pumpkins to Bats. This picture doesn't do it justice because they change colors from iridescent blue to iridescent purple. Bats are really good creatures.
Share your smile.
The wind just changed to the North and blew stuff in the entryway to the floor.
Or the bats knocked it down. I just can't decide.
But Blessings and Hugs are wished for you this weekend.
The rain is gone and it is a misty, dreary day. We are still a little warm and humid but cooler temperatures are promised for us in the next week. Tropical Depression Pamela gave us 2" but areas (Kyle Kid included) got up to 5" of rain.
This is the perfect weather for a nap even though I rarely take them. My Hubby would say every day is a perfect day for a nap.
I just don't seem to have much "get up and go" today. But alas, we have errands to run. So I best be getting in gear.
good-morning, been really busy the last few days. taking advantage of nice days to get all of my outside stuff done before it gets cold out. hope all is well with you and you are enjoying this fall season..marykay
good morning Nancy, thanks about my page. Sure love me some plaid. lol. Still sunny and dry here if not exactly cool. that's okay though, the rain stopped so color me happy! Have a good Wednesday and take time to relax.
A very good day to you. Strong storms predicted for us today and tomorrow but will believe it when I see it. Enjoy the rest of the week and take care.....George
Everyone in Texas is talking about me... I am on the news a lot. OK, I am also getting a lot of text comments from my friends too... troublemaker, dangerous, crazy, wreck havoc, naughty, go somewhere else...
Now come on, is that fair? We are getting a light shower right now but we are promised rain tomorrow. They should all be thanking me, right?
Just wait until tomorrow. Ok, I am working tomorrow so enjoy Taco Tuesday and Enchilada Wednesday. I'll be back soon so share your smile with everyone you encounter because the sun will soon be shining again.
Nancy, mine will soon be moved and covered with plastic. But they will get uncovered often over the next 2 months when we are quite warm.
Monday is half over, but I have a question. Does anyone else have strawberry plants? I have 4 of them right now. Three are in hanging baskets and one in a regular pot. Two of them are hanging side by side.
I just ate two big tasty strawberries off of this plant last week and would you look at all the blooms and new strawberries growing. This crazy plant has been giving me strawberries for about 6 months.
I just wondered if anyone has any experience with strawberry plants and why this one plant is so prolific when the others are not. I even gave a couple of plants to a friend earlier this year. All four of the plants I have are putting off babies.
Nancy, lots of time we are in shorts even in December, but by January we pull out our sweaters in Texas.
Weekend isn't over for everyone yet. Some people have Monday off for Columbus Day and in Canada Thanksgiving Day. So I hope everyone has a blessed Sunday and Monday. We are expecting storms to move into Texas late Sunday evening.
Now look closely. Can you spot J Lo blending in? She is laying on the dog mat, sneaking up on the dog food. What joy all of our dogs bring us!
So are you getting ready for Halloween? Do you have a costume or one for your kids or pet? Do you really think our pets hate us when we dress them up?
I do know when they love us... when it is snack time. Do your dogs get table scraps or just dog treats and dental chews? Our dogs get a lot of treats and chews and every now and then they might get something that I am eating.
I know when we are gone they eat very little. But when we get home the bowl seems to empty right away. Lots of times they go to the bowl (it is always down) when we are eating at the table.
Guess I had better go find something for us to eat and make sure they have food too. Blessings & Hugs are coming your way.
Good day my friend. Well we made the week and want to wish you a fabulously great weekend. Terrific weather here. Sure enjoyed my trip to Indiana to see family, the house I grew up in and the old neighborhood although a lot of the area has been torn down and new homes built. Forgot how many thousands of acres of corn and soybeans are planted. Saw lots of old covered bridges. Enjoy your weekend and take care........George
Oh my, is there a more true statement? Well, not that I know of anyway. OH! OH! Wait... I might have found one...
It is already 2:30 and I have been trying to get here since I finished watering the backyard early this morning. Hubby got the front watered.
I get in the computer room and just get lost in, well, I'm not sure what. OK! I might have taken 50 pictures this morning of plants in our yard. Then uploaded them to the computer and into an album. I will post in Bulletins for those who didn't get the email from me. And I might have also airdropped 70 more from a friend and put them on my iPad and loaded them into a Google album. So where does your day go?
And I haven't even had breakfast or lunch yet! What are you fixing today? Hubby gave up and had a sandwich. If I wait long enough he might end up with cereal for dinner.
good morning Nancy, the witches brew recipe sure sounds good! We are on day 3 of 4 for rain. More tomorrow I'm afraid. Looking forward to a dry weekend hopefully. Have a lovely Thursday and stay dry if you can.
Oh what a beautiful morning! Oh what a beautiful day! I got a beautiful feelin' Everything'g going our way! Now that you have a song in your head all day, I am positive that everything is going our way.
Especially since I've had two cups of coffee earlier and just now two Bacon, Egg, & Cheese Taquitos from WhatABurger! So bring on the day. I can handle it.
Even upside down! How about you? Is everything going your way? I hope it smooth sailing for you as this week flies by!
Just have fun, go with the flow, share your smile with everyone you encounter. I love all the Halloween and Fall pages.
