Happy Monday and a new week to dry out because Sunday morning we had 2-1/2" of rain.  

Dragonflies are another one of God's beautiful creations  

Do you have them where you live?  

Birds, Bees, Butterflies, and Dragonflies means summer will be here soon!

Thank you for your friendship and for making me smile!  

Now, where is that sunshine?   Blessings & Hugs!  Pam

LIFE is for living... LOVE... - um to love...

Kind regards... Kisses

Where has this month gone?  Oh my goodness!  Praying for protection from the storms all over the US.  

It seems that our April showers have brought us not only showers but storms to end the month.  

I always say be careful what you wish for and damaging storms are what we don't want for any of us!  

After the storms come more flowers that will bloom and that puts a smile on my face.  

So here is to the storms leaving us all alone and like magic watching the flowers bloom.  

May the Light of the Lord shine upon you and send lots of Blessings & Hugs to you and your loved ones!   Pam

My friend Kay, from my bulletin, is still in hospital and they are running test.  I will post an update when I know something more.  Thank you for your prayers.  

The bridge in the photo is called a Clapper bridge, (Latin form clapus, claperius, "a pile of stones" ) they are one of the earliest known bridges and believed to date back to medieval times.

Beautiful Yorkshire Dales near Malham Cove.

The bridge has two central piers spanned by three large granite slabs Clappers). These slabs would have replaced stepping stones to help pack horses cross the river carrying all sorts of commodities (wool, lead, salt,coal) carried in bags on the horse's flanks destined for the regional towns and cities.  

There is no app for this!  Walking in awe!  

Blessings & Hugs!  Pam

joys, and full of smiles, time flies,

Sow, happy moments, of your life,everything you

 you have planned, and be, happy, take care of yourself,

We will try to mow today if the ground isn't too soft for the riding mower.  It needs to be done today or tomorrow before the rain begins again.  

Just being outside barefoot in the yard is a healing medicine.  I sure hope the wind isn't as high as the 30 mph gust of yesterday.  

If it is too wet or too windy I will just watch for birds and bees and maybe hummingbirds if I get their feeders refilled.  

After all that would be a perfect day too, just watching the grass grow and the dogs play.  I hope your middle of the week is just as perfect!  

It is my favorite day of the week.  On Taco Tuesday we get out and run errands.  So much fun!  

So we will be off soon and no matter where we go or what we do, we have fun!  I do still miss our motorcycles but we are safer now in the car.  

No matter how I feel before I go shopping, I will feel great by the time I get home.  

I mean on any given day, there is NO telling what you might find and bring home with you.  

Now excuse me while I get ready and decide which face, I mean lipstick, I will put on today.  

Because everything I do each day, I do it with all my heart, like sending you my Blessings & Hugs!  Pam

Good Afternoon Debijo...

Have a great Monday and a wonderful new week .

Be safe my friend !

Many Hugs,Nathalie

Monday is here again, just like a bad penny.   Saturday we had 3" of rain and Sunday we had sunshine.  What will today bring?  

As I sit here sending you this note, the coffee is making.  

Before coffee, everything is just kind of like black and white.  

But after my usual 2 big insulated mugs full of coffee, beautiful colors begin to shine!  

Add some clothes and some makeup and the sunflowers are shining!  

Today I bring you Love along with Blessings & Hugs!  Pam  

Hey friend!

Happy new week ahead
Embrace the week with enthusiasm,

Be alert for new opportunities
Utilize them!
You will succeed.

My goodness, it is Sunday and the month of April is flying by.  

This graphic should say, "Hello April Showers, again!"  We sure got lots of rain yesterday.  

I thought I would go out on the patio and watch the lightning but it was way too cold for that!  

I love the rain but not a cold rain... a nice warm summer rain.  Mother Nature is very confused.  

I do love the reflections in the rain water standing on the driveway seeing the trees and clouds as the sky begins to clear.  

Blessings and Hugs for you to have a wonderful day and new week full of blue skies and sunshine even in the rain!  Pam

Good evening to you my dear lovely friend..

 weekend, Maria, take care, kisses,

Good Morning Debi, how is the weather in Oregon?  We did not get rain or storms yesterday but the cool front did come through with much nicer temperatures.  Love ya!  Pam

The weekend is closing in on us rapidly!  I think I will spend the day with the hummingbirds.  

I wish I could have changed the beautiful red roses to yellow like I have in my yard.  

I am jealous of those of you that can paint.  If I draw a stick figure, you would wonder what it was, really!  

If hummingbirds flew at night, wouldn't it be wonderful if they were neon and glowed in the dark?!  

I keep my feeders (3) up all year long just in case.  I never get tired of watching them and taking videos of them.  

Hummingbirds, like you, are one of God's amazing creations!  Blessings & Hugs to you and your loved ones!  

Oh what a beautiful day this Thursday is even though it is a dreary day outside.  

It is a day, like everyday, when I send you love, hugs, and peace from my heart to your heart!  

I love dropping by your place and sprinkling some springtime blessings on you!  

Spring means new blooming flowers for the hummingbirds and for us to smell and enjoy, even with allergies making a red nose.  

Go out and share the things you love with others every day that it is possible.
