It is an amazing Wednesday morning and time to get out and share your smile with others. Time to shine and show love to everyone you encounter today.
There is so much beauty out there to be seen and shared. Go take a picture and then share it with someone. Share a conversation in person and it might lead to a hug.
You might even end up taking a trip somewhere with a new life long friend. Where would you like to go if you could go anywhere? Thanks for being my friend forever!
Tuesday is "hoppening" today. I sure hope you have a fun day planned and maybe even get to eat Tacos today. It looks like it could be a good day.
Did you get any rain? We could sure use some more. Or is today your day for a bath? Just be sure to test the water before you jump in.
If you are going for a run today, don't forget to stretch before and after. I don't want you to get a cramp or get an injury of any kind.
For me it should be a lazy day. My chores are almost done and I just want to read a book and maybe even take a nap. After all the partying at night and into the wee hours of the morning, lack of sleep is getting to me. Just remember...
The month is flying by and I think I have more weeds than beautiful blooming flowers. How about you? We have been so hot and so dry and even after our one day of showers the hot weather is back again.
I think I have all these flowers somewhere in my yard and not one of them is blooming or looks this happy! I have lost a few of my favorites this year.
Have you ever seen a Skeleton Flower that turns from white to Translucent when it gets wet? God is truly amazing! Don't forget to share your smile and share Blessings too!
Sunday is such an awesome day of the week. Time to relax and reflect on the past week and look forward to the start of another week of new possibilities.
New memories to be made for the young and old. New ways to share our love with each other and to make each other laugh out loud.
Make the most of today and remember to tell your friends and family how much they mean to you each and every day.
I hope that your start to the weekend is beautiful and full of something fun that you will remember for a long time. Maybe like a walk on the beach.
How small we look in the overall scheme of the world and yet, here we both are online together and friends forever. What a wonderful world!
I am sending Blessings to you in hopes that your weekend will be full of color. I am grateful that we are friends and that you are in my life. Nancy, did you ever get any rain? South Texas should get some this weekend. We are back in the 100's this week.
My goodness this week sure flew by fast enjoying the days. May you have a glorious day and weekend. Smiles Gloria
The change always comes about mid-August, and it always catches me by surprise. I mean the day when I know that summer is fraying at the edges, that September isn't far off and fall is just over the hill or up the valley. ~Hal Borland
May you have a wonderful day enjoying the moment. We are at 61 for the temp on this beautiful morning. I have decided to have a refreshing cup of Cherry Blossom green tea to make my day even more special. What ever you will be doing do have a great day. Smiles Gloria
Tea elevates our minds so that we can see our problems from a distance — through the fine mists of contemplation. ~Terri Guillemets
Instead of wearing a tree, how about living in a treehouse? Do you think a permanent home in a tree would be fun or would it get old?
How about a vacation in a treehouse? Would it be nice to get away for a while and disconnect? I think it would depend on the view.
One of my son's friends, Doug Thron, built this tree house in California, I believe it was in the mid 1990's. He was an activist for the Headwaters Forest. He is now a very famous Drone Aerial Cinematographer who is now saving animals in Ukraine. You have probably seen his drone work on National Geographic (Shark week) or his videos on YouTube.
Good Morning! I need some advice today... Does this tree make me look fat? Now I need an honest answer.
I mean, after all, I spotted this tree first. And I really thought that I would have people staring at me if I wore it. Don't you agree?
Maybe this tree looks better on me. What do you think? I am so glad we are friends and I can trust you to tell me the truth.
I have been trying to stay away from bright colors like in this tree. OK, it might have been the lightning that I was trying to stay away from. But after 65 days with no rain, I might just have to throw caution to the wind. Can't wait to hear your suggestions!
Goodness it feels like fall is trying to come in . A smile is on my face. Cooler day and night temps and I am so happy. The tiger lilies are in bloom in the flowerbeds and they are the last flowers to show up as fall is trying to come in.
My how I love all the 4 seasons and all of its surprises as each season comes into view. May your week be ever so kind to you. Smiles Gloria
Treat everyone with politeness, even those who are rude to you — not because they are nice, but because you are. ~Author unknown
Do you EVER have one of those mornings? You know, you wake up to problems. Then several hours later you are finally ready to start your day and still need some coffee.
I guess it really started at 12:45 am. The dogs all decided to bark and run out the doggie door after waking up the entire neighborhood. Thank goodness I fell asleep early watching a movie and already had 3 hours sleep by then. Went back to sleep for another three hours after finishing the movie.
Ok! So now let's get this week started.
Monday Monday... so good to me!
After all, it only has to get better and I hope you sing like Mama Cass song all day long now!
It is so HOT that fake plants are the only thing that might be alive right now. If you walk on the grass next to the driveways, it just CRUNCHES under your feet. There is no green anywhere.
Our friends have flown the coop. Ok, they are driving back to Lubbock. Just say a prayer that the doctors find out the cause of her balance problems. She just wants a solution so she doesn't end up not being able to walk.
They drove off and I just collapsed on Hubby's shoulder. I cried for a while. I already miss them so much. I used to do that everytime my son drove away. But we will see them again... until then our love will continue to grow!
Well, all 7 tests were done and they also talked to the surgeon. He is not 100% sure of the problem and doesn't want to do surgery and have her wake up and tell her that wasn't the problem. Woo Hoo for him! So they are staying another night as she has a balance test this afternoon.
As you can tell, I am excited that they are staying another night. I had so much fun yesterday with all 6 dogs. Pink is so well mannered, she won't come in or go out the door until she is given permission. Our dogs run over you!
So I am heading off now to spend more precious time with them this Friday before she has her balance therapy. Have a Blessed day and a great start to the weekend.
After 2 bowls of Chicken & Dumplings each, we are all four very full. Then had a light dinner with maybe another bowl for at least one guest.
Before dumplings and after dumplings were added. Now this pot is at least half empty! Then came the laughter to help settle the full tummies.
They have a small dog, like our 4, and this magnificent standard Poodle, named Pink. Carly and Pink played and played and played. Everyone gets along except for eating each other's dog food. We are blessed by our best friends of almost 50 years.
Our friends have left Lubbock and are well on their way. So excited! We have been friends for close to 50 years.
There will be LOTS of laughter going on and NO suppressing it! Can't afford any more spread to hips! So now I am off to clean bathrooms! I know you are jealous! Sending Blessings & Hugs because well...
The front and back yards have been water; groceries purchased and put away; Taco Salads from Rosa's have been eaten; and dogs brushed. I feel a nap coming on. We have company coming tomorrow which means vacuuming, moping, bathrooms cleaned and a million other chores. If it wasn't so hot outside, when they get here, we could just sit and enjoy the sunset. Can't wait for the laughter and love to begin but until then, I hope you already have your chores done and...
