We made it to Friday once again. Rain has been here and gone. But it is supposed to come back again. Now what?
On Wednesday, we spent over 4 hours moving plants. They all got a good drink of water and are now ready for the plastic to go over them. We are expecting 3 nights of temperatures in the 30's.
A picture from years past of the plastic pulled back in winter so they can get sunshine. WE have lots of plants, ok I do, in pots scattered around the front and backyard; lots of hanging baskets everywhere in the back.
This is what it looks like, again from years past, on a cold winter night. Lights are on and the heater is going.
All the plants in tubs, big plastic tubs, got moved to the front. They will go in the garage when temperatures drop with a heater turned on.
Just in case you were wondering... yes, I have plants inside too. This is the only window in the house that does NOT have a solar screen so the plants can get light. I have a plant or two in about 3 other locations inside the house.
Fall is the time for Chrysanthemums to bloom. Isn't it amazing how different times of the year different plants show their colors.
This Tuesday morning we are still waiting for rain. It is west of us! Fort Worth got a nice rain yesterday evening!
Me, waiting for rain to get here. Cooler temperatures coming... a high of 55 for Halloween is cold! Not waiting for that! Just trying to be thankful for every minute of every day.
Here we are on Thursday waiting for Friday and the weekend. Do you have plans?
I went out early and picked a Dandelion bouquet to share with you. Every part of the dandelion plant is a healthy herb.
Then I harvested some lavender. Now it is time for some coffee and to sit and read my book for a while.
Maybe I will go for a bike ride when the temperature warms up a little.
One of my favorite spots is down by the stream this time of year to watch the leaves in the wind and just listen to the water drift by. Hope you have a fun day planned too.
Blessings on this Sunday and every day. Laughter is the best medicine! On that we can all agree.
Love is what life is all about and it is healing along with time! Every day show your love for everyone you meet.
Some days it takes extra hope & strength with a smile on your face to show the love in your heart.
Always look for the good with Love, Laughter, Hope, Strength, Smiles and whatever it takes. Sundays are for starting the week off practicing all of these.
Just look at that smile on my face. I may not be moving fast but I am sharing Sunday Blessings with you today and always.
Thursday was supposed to be a warm, near 90°, day for us but because of all the clouds yesterday and today, we will only be about 81°. However the promises of an even cooler weekend are in sight.
What is your story? I hope you are enjoying your story and that you are right where you want to be in it.
Your happy life should include love and showing lots of love toward lots of different people.
So for today, let's just sit back and enjoy the view and my favorite colors make this view perfect.
Smile! It is hump day, middle of the week, Wednesday! I changed my router and what fun! I am back up and running after almost 24 hours.
Is your battery low and in need of being charged? Today is the perfect day to smile and make others wonder what you are thinking! Do you know how many things have to be reset because of no internet and a new router?
What are you looking at? Besides, that is a good way to get people to talk to you and share "love" with them!
We love our pets! We love the Fall season! We love each other! Share your smile and love everyday! I am still smiling!
Welcome to Tuesday! I love flowers! It is almost time to plant Tulips and other bulbs for them to come up in the Spring.
We will take a slow drive down the dead-end road to the house and look at all the different colors.
We can get out and get an up close view of the pretty pink ones.
When you plant the bulbs you are never sure of what colors will come up. Wouldn't this be a lovely surprise?
Of course, this would be my favorite view. A field of orange, yellow and red with the beautiful orange evening clouds rolling in. Thanks for coming along with me!
Caturday is here! The weekend has begun, well, for those who get up early anyway. As a baby, my son got his days and nights mixed up and they are still that way!
I have a special delivery for you from FedEx. I can tell you are "chancing" one eye to see what it is!
Do you know how good pumpkins are? If your dog has an upset stomach give them canned pumpkins. I always keep a can or two on hand.
Did you know that cows, deer, chickens, ducks, etc. all love eating pumpkins?
Oh my list is so long that I don't even know where to start. Our Medicare Specialist went over the new plans for next year and we are saving $$$.
It started raining last night about 9:15 pm and rained on and off until after 5 am this morning. Yes, we are ever so THANKFUL. The big cracks in the yard are now very small and shallow. What a Blessing!
I am always thankful for coffee. I love the smell of it much more than I do drinking it. However, I love drinking it too!
There is nothing like love jumping on you when you walk in the door. I am not sure we will ever get another pet or dog but at the same time, I can't imagine life without one.
I am so blessed by all the friends that I have and have had some of them 40-50 years or more. New and long time friends mean the world to me!
The journey hasn't always been smooth but I am so grateful for the road we are on now and where He has led us. Glad you are part of it too!
Glad Judy came by. I agree with you, we need a clean sweep in congress. The names being thrown out there for a new speaker do nothing for me at all. Ugh! Hit 82 and may get close to 80 today then it's chilly willy for the weekend and beyond.
