Hi there my friend. I hope you are having a good Wednesday afternoon. Its a nice day here, a little cool but at least the sun is shining. Take care and have a good evening my friend. Cheryl
Here we are on the last day of March... as we march into April with two rather cold nights.
The Easter Bunny looks different this year. Hope you have your eggs dyed
and are ready to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus.
Blessings this Wednesday evening. Our grocery shopping done today. Always a chore as we end up with so much more than was on the list, especially since we had not been in a while.

Hi there. Its a rainy afternoon here. Been enjoying the rain as it is much needed here. I'm working on getting caught up on my laundry since we were out of town for the weekend. Had a good time seeing Kristen and the boys as it was time to celebrate their birthdays as both of the boys were born in Feburary. Didnt have any time to celebrate their birthday until this past weekend. The rainy day has made me sleepy. Hope you had a good weekend my friend and have a good rest of the day. Take care. Cheryl
Hi there. I hope you are having a good afternoon. Mine is going good. Got all of my housework done and going to spend some time coloring. The day had started off cloudy but now all the clouds are gone and the sun is shining. Makes for a beautiful afternoon. Have a great rest of your day and take care my friend. Cheryl
Well, Monday has rolled around again, so let's make the most of it. I wanted to share our weekend pictures.
Before and After
And that was the easy part! We don't have bulk pickup in the City of Fate... so we have to cut brush up in a 3x3x3 bundle. We are only allowed 4 bundles a week and we have about 10 from one tree. That is why we paid someone to haul off the green bundles from the tree that blew over. And extra bags of grass cuttings from spring & fall when we use the bagger is the same way as they only allow one extra bag on top of trash can and one to the side.
Hubby is washing cars today. We wanted to mow this morning but the grass was way too wet and it wasn't even dry enough by 10 am. So on to other projects. Made fresh hummingbird food since I have seen a hummer at the feeder. Also got orchids and Christmas cactus watered with ice cubes. So how is your week shaping up?
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!
