As I put this together, I am praying that this Tuesday will be a dark, overcast, rainy day for us.
While I love to watch the lightning, I hope we don't have too much and that there will be no damage done if we do have lightning.
Aren't Lighthouses amazing? I love how they can warn those out at sea of the rocks and land that they are getting near.
Just like God's Rainbow is a reminder of His promise to us.
I love rain and thunderstorms. After the storm comes the calm and everything is refreshed.
So whether we get rain or sunshine today, enjoy it and count your blessings!
Beginning in the late 19th century, as the trade union and labor movements grew, trade unionists proposed that a day be set aside to celebrate labor. "Labor Day" was promoted by the Central Labor Union and the Knights of Labor, which organized the first parade in New York City. In 1887, Oregon was the first state of the United States to make it an official public holiday. By the time it became an official federal holiday in 1894, thirty states in the U.S. officially celebrated Labor Day.[4]
Canada's Labour Day is also celebrated on the first Monday of September. More than 150 other countries celebrate International Workers' Day on May 1, the European holiday of May Day. May Day was chosen by the Second International of socialist and communistparties to commemorate the general labor strike in the United States and events leading to the Haymarket affair, which occurred in Chicago, Illinois, from May 1 – May 4, 1886.[5][6]
Wish you a wonderful week and Happy Labor Day! Hugs
I hope you are sleeping in, getting lots of rest, and have nothing major on your "to-do" list this weekend.
Mornings are the best time of day! That is when it is the coolest here.
I hope it is a nice day where you are. I think I will go see what is going on outside.
Then it should be time for lunch and maybe a nap if it is too hot to go back outside.
Probably time to look and see what we will be having for dinner soon too.
Well thinking about food and planning ahead is important. But now I guess I'll say Blessings & Hugs!
May your Friday bloom in all you see and do today.
Look around you to see the sites and sounds.
One of my favorite sounds is the loud calls of the Blue Jays. I always know when they are around.
I used to grow Bird of Paradise flowers when we lived in South Texas. Have you ever seen them growing?
What makes you notice a butterfly? Is it the movement, the sound, or the color?
Just open your eyes and you will see His presence all around you. Blessings will be upon you too.
Do what you enjoy and may your weekend be peaceful. Hugs
Glad all is going good.
This is a beautiful new page Cheryl.
Thursday is here and that means the month of August is almost over.
A mustard seed of Faith can accomplish anything!
Always Believe and have Faith!
Who would believe that a little itty bitty hummingbird could fly for so many miles?
There are so many amazing things all around us.
Hugs
Greetings and Hugs
Which is your favorite? The rain couds were all around us but miles away.
You know it is the last Taco Tuesday of August.
As it begins to cool off, maybe a bicycle ride would be fun.
I don't think I could get past the end of the driveway, so I will wait for you to come back.
A horse ride in the early mornings would be a fun way to say goodbye to August too.
Have you ever ridden a horse as it was crossing a river? I haven't but it looks like it would be fun.
However, if I am not on the bench when you get back, I'll be off walking with Jesus. You are always welcome to join us.
Good Monday Morning! Did you survive the weekend?
I love the smell of the coffee grounds when I make coffee and the smell of a freshly brewed pot.
Now I had better get busy or you might not hear from me tomorrow. Lots to do today!
If you go out today, look around you. You might spot someone who is hurting. Give them your heart.
Please don't forget to tell others you love them and that you carry them in your heart.
After a successful and busy day, I pray God will give you a peaceful night of sleep.
Not long now until Autumn. Enjoy a wonderful week! Hugs
Wishing you a good day. Hope that all is well. Hugs
Saturday, what shall we do? Our cool front dropped our temperatures from the 107° range to 99° & 100° . Is it fall yet???
We can't trade in our sunglasses for an umbrella yet. The clouds we do have are not dropping any rain.
The squirrels might have started gathering nuts but it is only to keep them from popping open in this heat.
Dad, Dad, I saw another squirrel run through the yard. Get up! Let's go chase him.
You know, it might be time just to curl up and listen to some music. Do whatever makes you happy today! Blessings & Hugs coming your way!
Friday can be for the birds! You had better get ready though and rest up for the weekend.
Would you like to go dancing? Do you still have a date night on Fridays?
For those that have babies or small children, it can be hard to have a Friday night date.
Especially when all the babysitters are already booked up!
Then there are Friday nights when the guys just want to hang out together and show off or watch a game together.
Just be careful where you land and don't get in any sticky situations. Whatever you do, please...
Hope all goes well with your appointment. Nice way to relax and enjoy a good book this weekend! Hugs
Another hot but blessed day is coming to an end. Sweet Dreams sweet soul. See you tomorrow!
Let's go to the Beach on this beautiful Thursday!
Do you like to swing? I love it that all our kids and friends enjoy the big round swing in our backyard.
A nice cool romp in the waves looks inviting with our extremely hot temperatures this month.
Hopefully before too long, the temperatures will cool, the clouds will form and the rain will start to fall.
Not long after that we will be complaining about the cold, overcast, dreary days in front of us.
So today let us be thankful for and enjoy this day that the Lord has made.
Wacky Wednesday is alway good for some laughs! Hope you enjoy these. We had a cool breeze this morning so I mowed the yard but cut it high. I got a video of my Hummingbird too. I do have the Sprinkler going now.
Yes, you have to stay hydrated during the hot weather and glad you are feeling better. Wednesday Greetings! Hugs
We will surely enjoy this Tuesday. After all, it is the day we get in the car and go pick up our tacos!
Any time we are getting in the car, Rbt has to have his dark glasses and I have to put shoes on my feet.
We both try to put on our smiles too, especially while we are zipping through construction and traffic that is bumper to bumper.
You never know who you might run into if we have to pick up any groceries, someone you know or a total stranger that might need your help.
After we finish tacos, Rbt always likes to take a power nap while I find quiet things to do.
Share a Smile. Share a Hug. Share your love with others and it will only add to your having a wonderful day.
Monday, woo hoo!
The Passion Vine is one of my favorite plants. Isn't the Passion Vine Flower beautiful? The sad thing is that it only lasts for one day!
If you let the day go by without looking the plant over, you will miss the blooms for that day.
We are all unique and we all have an expiration date on this earth.
So go out this week, bloom where you are planted, and let your beauty and inner light shine for all to see.
Sunday Blessings to you and those you love!
Hello Cheryl. Your page is very pretty! Hugs
