Good Afternoon debijo,Thank You Always...time to cool off,sooo get out and dance in the rain...enjoy your day and be safe my dear friend

I just started this nice summer bird  puzzle  today  as the  rain is coming down off and on this morning. We are at 67 for the temp at the moment. Now where is my coffee cup?  Nice to have coffee to sip on as one finds pieces to the puzzle. I do believe this will be a  nice lazy day doing this and that.  Hope your Tuesday is being nice to you. May you have a glorious week.   Smiles  Gloria

Smile... how much is a smile worth?  Depends on if you are on the sharing end or the receiving end, I guess.  

It depends on what you are doing to cause them to smile at you, like smelling the flowers, I really enjoy smelling the flowers.  

Oh!  Busted!  What are you looking at?  Yes, I love taking time to smell the flowers, don't you?  But I do love sharing a smile even more.  

Music Monday!  Do you like music?  Do you listen to it?  Do you dance?  

I love Oldies and older Country music and we listen to SiriusXM quite a bit.  My girls both like Choir in school.  We used to dance all the time but since Hubby's hip surgeries we do not go dancing anymore.  

But music will always be one of the keys to my heart.  Even though I can't really sing, remember the words or play an instrument.  What do you play?  

I have videos from when my granddaughters were very young playing all sorts of instruments, horns, drums, etc.  Actually, Michelle is now taking virtual guitar lessons from Mexico every week.  

Now, if I can just keep my plants alive, I will be happy.  I need to turn on the music outside and water them.  Monday Blessings to you!  

Such a pretty lily  in my flower garden. Puts a smile on my face seeing all the lilies in the flower bed of many colors that was planted last fall. My goodness saying the world fall we will be heading into August soon.  Really to tell you the truth I am looking forward the fall days.  Hope we are blessed with a long colorful fall season.  Ha, Ha,  I am even wearing today a brown outfit  and have a fall amber orange sweater on for it is 57 for the temp at the moment this morning. Loving these cooler days. In the mean time I'am sipping on a nice cup of coffee.   Have a Glorious Life doing this and that and I will do the same. Smiles  Gloria

Making stovetop stuffing to go with chicken and green beans and tomatoes and corn on cob.

Sunday morning and the sun is shining.  Blessings from God are also shining down on you today!  

Every day should be about LOVE.  I hope you know how special you are and that you are loved.  

Friends, family, same or different, it should always be about being loved and loving each other.  Blessings to you as we begin this new week.  

something for your dessert Debijo. big hugs and love. Moe xx

A beautiful day to you.   Just had to share this picture of the bachelor button plants. I use to have them many years back in the flower gardens. A dear friend gave me some seeds  to plant this summer. Looking forward to seeing them once again in the flower garden.  Wonder if there is a poem for the bachelor buttons for they are such a smilie flower .  Think I will look into that thought. May you have a relaxing weekend.  Smiles  Gloria

I am all dressed up for a trip to town on Saturday.  Are you going anywhere today?  Have any fun plans?  

Since we only have 4 dogs, what do you think about getting a new pet?  I would like to put netting over the back yard and just let it fly free!  

Nothing would be more fun than going dancing this evening.  Do you like to dance?  We love listening to SiriusXM, 50's Gold, Oldies, and of course lots of Classic old Country Music. 

Aren't dreams nice?  I guess I will just play in the garden!  I sure hope I make you happy as I love being a gardener!  

July is way more than half over!  July is the month for vacations!  July is usually the perfect month for picnics!  

If you live in Texas in 2022, July is the best month to leave the state.  My DIL and granddaughters have been in Mexico where the days are about 75° and the nights around 55°.  Sadly, they have to come back to our HOT weather because school starts soon.  

I do hope you are enjoying the month of July with dress up and picnics or that you have been on a lovely vacation.  If so. where did you go?  

I feel like all I have done is spin my wheels this month... and watered and watered and watered the plants and the grass.  If you don't hear from me again, it is because my water bill showed up in the mail and I fainted!  

I am sure I will need a day at the beach!  Hey, maybe I can bring some water back with me.  I wonder how much my car can hold.  Any ideas?  OK, my plants probably won't like salt water.  

Maybe a trip to fresh water like Crater Lake.  Can you imagine the cost of gasoline from Oregon to Texas?  I guess I'll just have to pay my water bill.  However, Multnomah Falls is one of my favorite places.  

Every sunrise gives you a new beginning and a new ending. Let this morning be a new beginning to a better relationship and a new ending to the bad memories. Its an opportunity to enjoy life, breathe freely, think and love. Be grateful for this beautiful day.

  love and  smiles

Good Afternoon debijo,Thank You Always...Enjoy Life...May you have a colorful and peaceful day my dear friend

Welcome to Texas!  I wonder how many people moved here, paid way too much for a house, and have nowhere else to go are loving our 109° temperatures with no rain in the near future.  I read stories on NextDoor Neighbor all the time about moving companies holding their belongings for more money$$$.  

If you live here, I want to know what is for breakfast and what time it is usually ready.  Oh, and let me know the address too.  

Maybe later in the day, we could swing out over the waves.  Now that looks like a lot of fun.  Have you ever been in one of those great big swings?  

And when the moon comes up, I would love to take a stroll on the beach.  That is, unless the mosquitos are as bad there as they are in Texas.  

Or we could just sail around in the warm breeze far away from mosquitos.  Doesn't that look like fun?  Now, back to reality... we start the day in Texas at 82° and at 5:30 in the afternoon in Texas, it is 107°.  My garage started at 90° today and was as high as 103° yesterday.  Welcome to Texas!  

Goodnight debijo,Thank You Always...May you have a Blessed night of rest with peaceful dreams my dear friend...May the Angels always watch over you

Yesterday I put my knee knockers on and got all ready to run errands in this heat!  Bank, Herb Mart, Pack & Post, Rosa's taco Tuesday.  You know the usual stuff.  

I showered and washed my hair.  Do you like my new "do" style?  Sure is hard work getting ready to leave the house.  

I wasn't even going to work but put on some mascara.  Also put on my rings, earrings, and necklace along with my smile of course.

We were only gone a couple of hours and boy, does that heat take a toll on my hair!  It was even hard to breathe by the time we got home.  All the jewelry came off and after taco salad my tummy was full.  Then it was time to read my book.  

Even Hubby decided it was too hot to start a project after eating his taco salad and decided to take a nap!  Now that Tuesday is over, we have to get dressed again today for the Glaucoma doctor.  

JUST POPPING IN TO SAY HELLO DEBIJO, HOPE ALL  IS GOING AS WELL AS CAN BE EXPECTED. A VERY TOUGH TIME TO BE SURE. THINKING OF YOU AND SENDING LOVE AND HUGS, MOE XX

Howdy debijo,Thank You Always...May your day be wonderful and stay cool my dear friend

I sure hope you can find a shady spot today because our hot sun can burn the skin quickly here.  We are trying to get our watering done in the early morning before 8 am or late night after 7 pm.  We set a record of 109 yesterday and today is supposed to be our hottest day.  Fires near Glen Rose are extremely hot and causing evacuations.  Prayers please for them.  

We also try to keep enough water in all the bird baths that are up high or on the ground full for all the animals to get a drink or take a bath.  

It is so much fun to watch them make a splash.  They don't stay long and then you have to be ready to refill their watering hole.  

After all, there are others that might need a drink in this hot weather too.  It is always nice to share!  SMILE!  You might just be on candid camera.  

Gosh I hope you had a wonderful weekend!  Did you have a party or go to one?  Well, I am off to water as we have 3 days of 107° or higher.  

The grass is no longer green.  It is the color of straw and feels like that when you walk on it too.  So no matter how high the water bill is going to be, I must put the sprinkler on in areas with no shade.  

I feel so sorry for the birds and bunnies and all of God's creatures.  So I have to keep bird baths filled with water and bird seed in the feeders.   Hope you can find a cool spot under the trees or in the air conditioner.  

Good Evening debijo,Thank You Always...i hope that you're having a Blessed Sunday...Enjoy your evening and take care my dear friend

Hey there, did you know it was Sunday and the weekend is almost over?  

Are you talking to us?  We are just watching to see what is happening around us and what all the commotion is about.  

I'm still trying to get rid of unwanted company from the party the other night.  That's what is happening here.  

And I am just laying around trying to recover from the party and waiting for cooler weather.  I hope I will find some energy soon.  Now they are saying we will be 107-109 and then drop back to 104° for a few days. 

I am waiting for rain!  Has anybody seen any?  We had 5 minutes of a light sprinkle and it went east of us.  Please send some much needed downpours our way!  Don't forget to invite us to the next party too.
