We really turned cold. Wow, I was so cold last night. y old bones were feeling it bad. lol lol... We were suppose to be warm this weekend, but it isn't happening.
My daughter didn't get to come up again this weekend. Her cat is sick and she can't leave her. So I really miss her. But her little cat is so sweet and she is getting old and I don't want her to leave her. She didn't want Sarah to have to be alone with her. I pretty sure her hubby probably came up to visit his family as his mom and dad are very ill. I hope you have a wonderful evening. God Bless you tonight. Sweet dreams my friends. The sun is setting here and there are dark clouds so I think rain might be in the forecast. Another day is over and we have so much to be thankful for. God is so good to us. I am so very blessed. I forgot to tell you my kids came over last night with dinner and my Mandie, when she got off from work, brought me a dozen of beautiful roses. Oh my goodness, I almost cried. She is such an angel. I said you must love me and she said YES!! I am so blessed to have such a beautiful daughter-in-law.. She is so good to me and Eddie. She had went to the store Thursday night and got food for dinner for us. We always pick up our son and then get Seth from school and we eat together. So Ken said mom, mandie got the food last night. Oh my goodness, we had a feast. If I tell you all that we had, your mouth will start watering. lol lol Pork Chops, fried shrimp in the air fryer, veggie plate with turkey sausage, mac and cheese, dressing and green beans. The veggie tray was so good. It has so much good stuff on it. So it was a feast. Yummy!! We didnt' have any dessert. We didn't need any. Bye for now sweetie. Talk to you tomorrow. Sending lots of love and prayers, Shirley oxoxoxox
Hello my friend, we are having another beautiful day. It is only 74 degrees. Very cool breeze blowing. The kids are swimming in the lake and I don't know how they stand it. It is too cold to be swimming. It got down to 55 degrees last night and that makes the lake very cold. Our lake has very cold springs in it and wow,, when you swim past one, it is very cold. I remember all those days when the kids were little. I loved to swim I was the first one in and the last one out. I would go swimming in September. Wow, the water would be cold. If I had it to do over, I wouldn't have done that cause that cold worked on my old bones. lol lol Hope you are having a wonderful day. God Bless you. Happy Weekend. Big hugs and prayers, Shirley
Have a wonderful Saturday. The Lord Bless you and keep you. Happy Weekend. Enjoy all the beautiful things God has to offer you. I had a wonderful day Friday. Being with your children is always a blessing. I am so blessed with wonderful children.
God Bless you.
love and prayers, Shirley xooxxo

I just don't get to see her enough. Our kids are so wonderful and so good to me and my hubby. I am truely blessed. I hope you have a wonderful day. God Bless you. Hugs, Shirley
A long time ago God had a great many burdens that He wished to have carried from one place to another on Earth. He asked the animals to lend a hand, but all of them had excuses for not helping: the elephant was too dignified; the lion, too proud; and so on...
Finally the birds came to God and said, "If you will tie the burdens into small bundles, we'll be glad to carry them for you. We are small, but we would like to help."
So God fastened upon the back of each bird a small bundle, and they all set out walking across the plain to their destination. They sang as they went, not minding the weight of their burdens at all. Every day the burdens seemed lighter and lighter, until the loads seemed to be lifting the birds, instead of the birds carrying the burdens.
When they arrived at their destination, they discovered that when they removed their loads, there were beautiful wings in their place. Wings that enabled them to fly to the tree tops and soar through the sky, closer and closer to God.
The burdens we carry for others, as well as ourselves, become wings of the spirit, lifting us to new places and bringing us closer and closer to God.
May you always Soar
in spite of your Burdens !
Susan, how you doing? We are good. My cats are adorable. So cute this Summer. We are having so much fun with them. How are you babies doing? love you, Shirley xooxox
