I do believe I am in pink mood today for some reason. Puts a smile on my face and I hope it does this to you also. Doing my Friday daily duties as I have a joy in my heart.
May you have a nice day doing this and that also. I do believe I need a refill in my coffee cup and or tea for I do like both of them during the day. Smiles Gloria

Oh to have this much energy again! We really wanted to trim some trees today; however, the ground is sooooo wet that the ladder would sink to the center of the earth. Instead...
I'll give you a Big Friday Hug! And I will send lots of Blessings your way because your friendship always puts a smile on my face and is a blessing to me.
Now I'm heading outside to see what I can get into because staying inside and paying bills just seems like no fun when the sun is shining brightly on my orchids.
So a man shows up, Johnny, with a huge machine, a stump grinder. After it was unloaded, it only took between 15-25 minutes and the stump was mulch, dirt and all.
So now that this job is finished, I guess you know where the bodies are hidden. We still have 3 or 4 Juniper trees to trim and a large crepe myrtle to trim. Our work is never completely done.
But the timing couldn't have been better. Rain started yesterday evening. Then last night we had 3 different thunderstorms come through at midnight, 1 am and 3 am. We ended up Monday evening with 1" and this morning with 2". Once again, we were blessed as others in the DFW area, Dallas - Ft. Worth, had tornado sirens go off and some got hail from pea size to golf ball size and larger.
Showers bring flowers! The BlueBonnets are starting to "pop". The sun came out earlier but we now have big, white, puffy clouds everywhere. Looking forward to the upper 70's for a couple of days. Can't wait to hear what you have been doing!
Hope you enjoy it. We got it completely cut up in 8-1/2 hours. Only thing left is the stump. We have someone hopefully coming today to pick up wood and twig piles. Then there are the 18 green piles that either we haul off or pay someone to haul off. We are blessed to have friends that came over and helped the last 1-1/2 hours. Now, the stump.
Please remember for both links, you can click on the first photo and view each by scrolling through them (some will be LIVE and show action and some will be videos). I have to go get busy now. Thanks for stopping by and I'll be back soon. Just got word that both are heading here today for piles. Yipee Yahoo!
My goodness this week just flew by so fast. May you have a nice day and a pleasant weekend. A windy March day today . Glad I did my errands this morning. Smiles Gloria
Guess what we are doing? Yes, cutting up this big tree. Anyone need firewood or wood for furniture? What a huge undertaking it is now. However, 30-40 years ago, it would have taken 2 days and been fun!
Who knew that Spring Cleaning would involve being outdoors chopping up a Juniper tree? Now if you have nothing better to do, come on over! hehehe
Actually, we have friends that were scheduled to come over tomorrow to celebrate everyone Anniversary. We are going to Salt Grass for early dinner. They are all coming with chainsaws now. And with Blessings all around us, we hope someone will need wood and haul it off for us as we have no bulk pickup in our city of Fate.
So... I am starting the weekend now because it may be a day or two before I get back here. Hopefully with different pictures from our backyard. Blessings & Hugs and yes, I am still looking for that fairy to help.
Blessed St. Patrick's day to you. A beautiful cloudy day. Sunshine within my heart as I sing some Irish songs throughout the day. For now I am going to make up a fresh cup of coffee to make my day even brighter. May your day be kind to you. Smiles Gloria

Your trip to Oklahoma City sounds wonderful! Nothing like spending time with those you love.
Hugs, Maria
Hi there. Had a nice weekend in Oklahoma City. Got to see my daughter and her two boys. Had a fun time on Saturday at a Saint Patrick's Day parade watching the boys get lots of candy. Then we went out and ate for supper and then yesterday we had breakfast with them. And then we traveled back home. Its a 4 hour trip but worth it to see our daughter and her boys. I'm tired today from the trip and the time change. I wish it would just stay this time and we wouldn't have to deal with it every year. I hope you had a good weekend and a even better Monday. Take care my friend and have a nice afternoon. Cheryl
