Whoa!  What a way to start a Wednesday!  Is there anything more beautiful than the beach?  Where else would you choose to go today?

Even though I am not much of a water person, a trip to the lake is always beautiful too.  Which do you prefer?  They are both so beautiful, each in their own way.  

How about a trip to the mountains where we can find a cler, cool stream and watch the colors of fall as they start to change?  Are you up for that?  

There is nothing like a waterfall even if there are no other colors but the rock that surrounds it.  Oh!  and the sounds it makes cascading down!  

We might be lucky enough to see a couple of moose wandering down the stream with the mountains in the background surrounded by the colors of Fall as the evening shadows start to appear.  

Let's end the day with a full moon as it reflects on a stream that is slowly rippling as it makes its way downstream.  It has been a perfect day!  Thanks for coming along with me, my friend.  

Hello, LIVE LIFE your way no matter what

What others say or think. Happy Wednesday, friend!

May your ACTIONS today speak more

LOUD than your WORDS. I WISH you an excellent DAY

with a shower of blessings, and PEACE, happy

Wednesday, take care, Maria

I kept trying to find a graphic for Monday... and then I'm like wait, yesterday was Monday and today is already Tuesday; tomorrow is hump day.  

No wonder time flies by so fast.  The days, weeks, months and years just keep getting faster and faster.  Sit back and enjoy the view.  

If you do get out and about, be sure to share the love, just sprinkle it wherever you go every day.  Then it will come back to you tenfold.  

We also win when showing love to others.  If you see someone who needs help, stop what you are doing and help them.  It may take some effort on your part or take away from your day, but it will be a big win for you both.  

Grab hold and ride the winds on a cloud and see where the Holy Spirit leads you and what Blessings you will encounter.  It may be obvious right away or later on down the road but the trip will be worth it.  

Blessings upon blessings forever and a day from my heart to yours!  

Good morning Lorri, a terrific Tuesday to you.


Blessed Be my dear friend. *Hugs*

Saturday evening, no wind and fire in the sky!  

Sunday morning, slight breeze with clouds around but no rain for us. 

I think I lost another rose bush (this is NOT my rose, but I wish it was).  

Then the Blessings came down from Heaven.  We got 1/2" in this downpour and another 1/10" during the night when our electricity was off for 2 hours..  Thank you all for the prayers that were answered.  

Don't work too hard today or this week.

HELLO, Just one positive thought at the start of the week,

can make a big difference. I wish you a HAPPY and

POSITIVE WEEK. Have a great Monday,

because you deserve everything good that happens to you.

big hugs, MARIA, take care

Are you resting this Sunday to get ready for lots of good food and fun for Labor Day tomorrow?  

We always rest and relax on Sunday and count our Blessings from the past week and look forward to the new Blessings that will come our way.  

It is usually a quiet day for us to listen to our heart and the Holy Spirit to lead the direction of our path for this new week.  

We do just love being together laughing and remembering the past years gone by and troubles we used to get into.  

Of course during our discussions, I do catch Rbt giving me that "LOOK" but then the laughing continues!  

Good morning Lorri, a pleasant Sunday to you.


Blessed Be my dear friend. *Hugs*

Thursday always produces a smile because the weekend is in sight.  This is the last day of August.  Are you ready for a new month?  I will be working tomorrow to start September off right.  

We have survived the last six weeks of heat and we hope to say goodbye to it along with the month of August.  

We are ready to welcome a new month, a new season and new colors into our lives.  

I am ready for flowers to be blooming again but first we need rain and lots of it. 

The Blue Super Moon has been beautiful the last 3 nights and I do love taking pictures of it.  

I am ready and waiting with my camera phone charged.  Miracles happen after a good thunder and lightning show with lots of rain.  

Good morning Lorri, a beautiful Thursday to you.


Blessed Be my friend. *Hugs*
