Friday is here already!  Where did the week go?  We actually ran errands and the pantry is stocked up again!  

I thought I had better take an extra minute to check on each of you!  How was your week?  

Some of you have had rain this week instead of snow.  Did you see any beautiful lightning?  

Or maybe you saw a beautiful rainbow!  Have you ever seen both at the same time?  I haven't.  

We had thunder only once this week with no lightning.  Maybe we will get both this evening.  I do enjoy it a lot!  Hope you are ready for the weekend because here it comes.  I hope it is warm enough to go out to play in our last rain!  

Just dropping in to say Hi. Its been a busy day. I took my son to the doctor this afternoon since his wife had to work. He is doing good. Just gets easily tired as he is using a walker to get around and not crutches. He feels more stable with a walker. I hope you are having a good afternoon/evening wherever you may live. The sun finally came out today. We had fog again this morning as I was making my way up to see my son this morning. He and his wife live in Kansas. Its just a 30 minute drive from where we live in Oklahoma. Well take care my friend and keep my son in your prayers. Hugs, Cheryl

Cardinals are beautiful in every season.  Their colors really "pop" in winter.  

Are you still getting a lot of snow?  We have been a bit warmer and are getting rain.  

How much is too much for you?  Is it time to dig your way out?  

At least some share their responsibilities and take turns helping to raise young ones.  Or like in our home, one cooks and the other one cleans up.  

I hope that warms your heart as much as it does mine!  Blessings & Hugs to you and your loved ones!  

HELLO , With much LOVE I wish you a HAPPY THURSDAY.

Live LIFE with JOY, because behind a SMILE LIFE

looks much BETTER.May everything happen to you today,

friend, and may everything be  good. Kisses, Maria

a lot,full of smiles,and my friendship,

Smile!  We made it another day!  Half way through a week.  We have had between 2.5"-3" of rain for this week.  

Just how cold does it have to be to do that?  I hope it is never that cold where I am!!!  

No matter how cold it is, I need sunshine.  It always makes me feel so much better.  Our dogs love it too!  

Snow, Rain, or Sunshine... don't forget to check on someone this Wednesday.  They might need your help today!  

Good afternoon to you. Its a cloudy, cold and foggy day here. Only 37*. Tomorrow we have a chance for rain. That will be nice. We still have some snow still in our yard. I went to Walmart this morning to get the things we needed. Not much else going on. I'm having a lazy afternoon. Well take care my friend and enjoy the rest of your day. Hugs, Cheryl

The rain started long before this Tuesday morning.  We have had 1" of nice slow soaking rain.  

Yes our high today is mid 50's but not much chance for sunshine.  

Drip, drip, drip!  No hanging out clothes on the line today!  

There has to be an easier way to get a drink and a bath than this!  

When will the cute hummingbirds be back for me to watch all day long?  

I hope all this rain means flowers will be popping up soon and hummingbirds will be returning!  Enjoy your day!  

Do you still have snow?  We have been cold again but we didn't get any more snow!  I hope we don't get any more this year!  

If you still have snow, I hope this puts a smile on your face.  The rain has started here and we are getting freezing rain in the area.  

I hope that I make you smile once in a while!  I also hope that you are staying warm as I think we are all in the same cold boat.  

Somewhere someone has it worse than we do too.  Our ground was frozen last week and I am not sure it has thawed yet.  

I am heading outside today to see if the birds have food but I really hope the squirrel hasn't eaten it all already.  Enjoy the new week ahead!  

Hello Today is a perfect day to enjoy those little things

in life that give us so much happiness.

 Happy monday,! Be happy here and now, live for today

intensely because tomorrow, who knows what will

happen Smile at life, take care of this ,cold,

 kisses, Maria

It is Sunday and still cold.  Then we are expecting rain next week almost every day.  

From snow to rain!  Mother Nature and Ole Man Winter are playing tag... your turn!  

We just need to learn to love every minute of every day!  Even if things don't go smoothly, it means the day can get better.  

Before you know it the day will be over and it will have been as graceful and smooth as geese landing on the water.  

Then as you turn out the lights at the end of the day, be sure to give thanks as you count your blessings!  

Caturday blessings to you and hope you are having a wonderful weekend.  

Do your animals enjoy the cold weather?  Our dogs go in and out the doggy door all year long.  However, they go out less in the winter.  Our dogs might be spoiled!  

We don't get a lot of snow most of the time and there are some years, we don't get any.  However, we are cold enough to see ice crystals form, if one chooses to go outside and try it.  

I did remember to get more birdseed put out before it got cold again.  The squirrels must enjoy the cold weather because I can still hear them jumping on the roof from the trees.  

Cats, dogs, birds, or whatever the animals, most seem to enjoy the winter much more than I do.  I hope you are enjoying the weekends no matter if you are inside or outside or what your weather is like!  

I hope I can giggle through a Friday high of only 35° dropping back to 17°.  We have another 3 days of this.  

I am sharing my love with you as we move toward another cold weekend.  

Kindness is especially needed this time of year when the harsh climate makes some late and cranky.  Did you see how many electric cars won't charge?  

Look all around you and see if there is an act of kindness you can do that will help someone else.
