GOOD MORNING, LOVE, HUGS & BLESSINGS, Ms. Grace, I pray YOU have a SENSATIONALLY SPLENDID SUNDAY, and have had a STEADFAST WEEKEND, my friend...

Namaste

Hello, may your day be a blessing, it is having a friend,

and having it on a Sunday, to share is even better.

Sometimes we let time pass, and that waiting

period until we answer our friend,

or we make decisions that we did not want, I wish

you the best for this day,take care, 

kisses and hugs, Maria

Here we are again on Saturday Caturday!  What is up today?  We always have College Baseball or College Softball to watch on TV.  

And of course, nothing gets done or even gets started without coffee.  At least 2 cups please.  

Well, now the tables have turned.  All of us have something we NEED, don't we?  What is your vice?  

I will have to admit that food is another thing that is pretty high on my list.  At least once a day I really enjoy a good meal.  

Of course I sure do enjoy a snack too, maybe even a couple of times a day.  What is your favorite snack?  

Now that I've made us all hungry, I better go find something to eat before I go outside and watch for hummingbirds.  

Blessings and Hugs!  

Belle journée mon amie. Bisous.

Hello,  have a good Saturday, to enjoy it

to the fullest, doing something you like,

maybe something you've always wanted. Don't forget

 share with the ones you love the most,

share your love with them. Happy and

 blessed Saturday, special, take care, kisses

With friendship, Maria big hugs,

Hello, I'm glad that everyone is ready to give their

 best on this Friday. This week is almost 

over, but how much  progress we have made, 

thank God for all the days that have passed.

But we definitely still need strength and have 

a great day, take care, kisses,

and big hugs, Maria

Weekend is on the way!  It has been a nice Spring week for April.  

I am checking the ads for my grocery list.  As soon as I get that done, I hope to finish the book I am reading so I can start another one.  

After all, it is so much fun to travel and get totally lost in a good book.  

Just be in the moment, right inside the book.  You have done that, haven't you?  

Sometimes you can even feel the spray of the waves when you are reading a book!  

Now if I can just figure out which book I really want to read, to dive into and get lost.

Working again!

What to do on a Thursday.  Dog days of summer, I mean spring.  Temperatures are up and down, BUT   

Every day is a new adventure.  Some days are just plain and simple.  Some days are exciting.  

More often us girls start out with a bad hair day.  Some days we can get it under control and other days it is like... who cares.  

I know we all have days that we just want to hide our head and take a nap.  Do not disturb me today.  

There are days when friends, family or spouses want to play a game of scrabble or some other nonsense game.  

Then there are the dreary days that the only thing to do is curl up in a chair with a cup of coffee and a good book.  What is your day like today and your favorite kind of day?  

Never  try to convince  somebody of   your worth. If a person  doesn't   appreciate  you,  they  don't deserve  you.

Take care.

GOOD NIGHT

GOOD MORNING, LOVE, HUGS & BLESSINGS, Ms. Grace, I pray YOU have a WICKEDLY WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY/HUMPDAY, and are having a WORTHWHILE WEEK, my friend...

Namaste

hello, friend, every day we need to be aware

that we are going to walk  we are going to

walk this path diligently, with intelligence,

 with faith, with perseverance, not 

leaving things half done.I wish you the best

 for this day, keep walking, and seek your wishes

take care, kisses, and big hugs,maria

Happy Wednesday

But if you don't get up and get out, you might miss something important.

Not everything is in black and white.  You might miss the colors of God's painting today.  

Thank you so much for making me smile and sharing your love.  

I love giving a compliment to someone I meet or even saying something nice over the phone to someone who helped me!  

Besides, it will bless you too.  Remember, things are returned to you in double or more.  

So here is to showing up and participating this Tuesday and every day; to being kind; to loving each other.  See you tomorrow my friend.  

Hell Grace - how was your weekend?  I hope you had a good one - do anything special?  We went for fresh-made burgers and fries on Friday at the VFW.  The girls from the auxiallary made them and they were sooo good.  Saturday we went to a 70 and 80's disco party held by a social club to benefit the boys and girls club here in the city.  It was very loud and I couldn't dance due to my hip but the food was real good.  Wouldnt do it again though.  Stayed home from doninoes on Sunday as our friends need to fix their kitchen floor - that was ok as it was nice to spend Sunday nite at home.  Today is a beautiful sunny day - quiet as well.  Have a good rest of the day and evening.  Hugs, Wendy

Most of you know I love to take pictures.  But to capture the moon like that, you need the right camera.  

Even with a phone camera, it takes the right "eye" to "see" the right angle to capture the right picture.  

I also just like looking at pictures.  I came across this one that had a caption of the name of a plant.  This is a Double Angel Trumpet.  

A lot of you might not know that plant or remember the name Cricket.  She was the first person that asked to be my friend when I joined Not Over The Hill in 2008.  The above picture is her Angel Trumpet plant in her front yard.  

While Cricket is no longer with us on earth, her Angel Trumpet plant lives on at my home just as she lives on in my heart.  She would take cuttings in the fall and root them over the winter.  She sent me a couple of cuttings and I still have one growing in a tub.  It is inside our garage today because it is cold.  It has been pulled in and out (in warmer weather) of our garage so many times over the years (hundreds) and will soon be at home in our backyard in another month when the weather stays warmer.  

Every time I spoke to Cricket with all her health trials, she would say she couldn't wait to get to Heaven and have a "Woo Hoo Party" with Jesus.  I was blessed by her friendship and I am also blessed by your friendship.  

Howdy, hoping all is well your way.. All is good here, had nice weather yesterday so did some yard work, mowing, weeding etc. Rain is expected again by this evening and most of next week. Hope you enjoy your day and have a great week~~ hugs, debijo

I have said prayers like this.. wanting His blessing my way.  

And you never know who is looking over your shoulder.  It could be a dove flying by or an angel that you don't even see.  

Sometimes when things seem to go wrong, it could be that God isn't saying "no" but just "not right now".  

There are times when it is hard to have faith and not think that God isn't listening to us.  BELIEVE
