Life is not the way it is supposed to be. It is the way it is. The way you cope with it is what makes the difference.

Now It's Thursday Morning.....

Black out my window....nothing moving.....cannot tell the sky from the earth...not a tree in sight, yet I know they are out there...smile. Worker cars coming in slowly and all is very quiet around here ....and....my cold is in full bloom...what is that saying...'what goes around comes around' ....it does and I have an old fashioned cold to prove it. So, I am down for the count as the old expression goes and I will have a quiet day with a good book as only Clive Cussler can write. It is pitch black outside my window and the birds have not shown up as yet; way too early!!! My coffee cup is empty and that will never do. So, off I go to feel sorry for poor me with a nasty head cold, a want for something good...and there is nothing good in this house....um...I think you have heard those words before. I will leave you to have a good day,all day, doing what you love to do....making someone happy.....fun...go...be a bolt of lightening and enjoy your day. Poor ME!!!! Ha, ha, well someone has to feel sorry for me and my snaughty nose. I will leave you with a prayer for serenity..."God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference." AND, don't worry about me, sniffle, sniffle.....I'll be fine.....I'll be hunkered down in my easy chair, feet up on the hassock, book in hand....You go and have a good day a fun day, a day to put a smile on your face. I'll be fine, sniffle, sniffle.... I'd share a hug or two but then you would get this nasty head cold and that would never do.

Wednesday Morning

Good Morning. How are you this morning? I am not awake, working on it, one eye open, the other to follow in its own time..smile. Around five a.m., a good time to be snoozing but the body clock is up and awake so I am off to refill my coffee cup as I have already devoured my first cup. AAH....coffee.....I bless the bean every morning!! A crescent moon, pretty, sky is dark so no trees showing. The worker cars are parked on my side this morning, a few coming in slowly as a new work day begins. My throat is scratchy this morning so I could be on my way to having a cold in my head....don't want it, don't need it, but it is something I have no control over...so it seems...I try to stay away from those with head colds but once in the air the chances of catching something is better than one hundred percent. My coffee is hot and delicious. There is nothing to go with it but Christine is due over a bit later and is bringing a coffee treat with her. I think I'll have her wait as I don't want her to catch a bug. So....I may be spending a quiet day, have a good book going...so all is not lost..smile. I have the makings of a hot toddy if needed....and one intends to need when a cold develops. So, have yourself a good day, all day, doing what you want to do, not what you have to do...smile. So..."God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change. Courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference"..... Be good, be kind, be YOU!!! Hugs to all.

Now it is a new Tuesday....

Good Morning. A crescent moon in our sky this morning...very pretty.....worker cars in and parked already and my hot coffee is delicious...a wake upper....hot, black and delicious. Not sure what is going on with the computer....tiny print....why??? who knows, I don't. Now when one of my girls comes over they can check it out and maybe get me up and running right. I am not good with computer problems.... A new day, a Tuesday, wonder what is in store for us....something good I hope. So I will love you and leave you while I go for a refill of my coffee, hunker down in my easy chair, turn on the news and catch up with the outer world. I hope your day is wonderful, like YOU....I'll be back later when the print is up and readable...smile. Go....coffee, tea, or??? awaits....maybe a dropped egg...ha.ha. have a good day, all day, doing what you want to do. Catch up. Hugs.

Monday Morning All Over Again!!!

Good morning. I have no idea why the print is so small...if I were smarter I'd make it larger but I need a helper, a keeper, someone who knows how to do all that computer stuff. The longer I work on one the less I know..smile. It is pitch black out my window. The worker cars are parked on my side this morning and the spaces all filled so I guess the morning crew is hard at work. There are no lights on, um...take that back as there is one room with a light on, shades drawn tight, so someone is awake. I have had my first cup of hot black coffee and need a refill so with little or nothing to add to the mix this morning, I will wish you a good day, all day, doing what you want to do...not what you have to do...smile....be loving, be kind, be YOU. Off for a refill, feet up, news on....aah, a new day. Hope you have a really good one. Hugs to all.

Sunday, January 27, 2019

A new Sunday morning!

Good Sunday morning. I don't know why the print is small. I don't know how to make it larger. I wish I was computer literate. It is Sunday morning, pitch black outside my window, one shade is up in a hospital room across the way and I have one eye open. Coffee is gone so I am going for a refill...have to get both eyes open, the brain working if I am going to say good morning to you. I have no new news. I have to wake up and live a little before i can entertain you with the doings around here. At this time of the morning, before six a.m. the sky is pitch black, nothing is oving and all is quiet..that is as it should be...smile. I a off for a refill, feet up, news on, laze about for awhile and then my day will begin. I hope you have a good day, all day. Be good, be kind, be loving....and your day will be terrific....Hugs.

Saturday, January 26, 2019

Saturday Morning!!!

Good Morning. How are you this morning? Pitch black out my window, nothing stirring, the light on the side of the building and silence..... I cannot make the print larger....I want to say stupidity comes with age, but I think it remains forever and age just helps to make it more noticeable. I pushed all the buttons but nothing changed. Okay, I am off for hot coffee; open my eyes; and I'll be back. Meanwhile enjoy your breakfast, make your today special, like YOU....Hugs to all.

Tuesday, January 22, 2019

Tuesday Morning!!

Are we ready?  The Prayer of Serenity...."God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change. Courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference."  Now, a new day begins and it is pitch black outside my window, a puddle or two on the tarmac and nothing moving.  My little calendar says it is a Tuesday morning and I have had a restless night, tea at three a.m. a chapter or two and then back to sleep so I am only half awake.

So.....I have no new news;  I have no old news:  I have no news...smile.

I am going out to the kitchen, put on the coffee pot, look to see if there is anything good out there and go hunker in my easy chair, tv on, feet up and start  my day.   I hope your day is going to be great and you get to do the things you want to do, beside doing all the things you have to do...no rest for the wicked....not that you are wicked...um.....let me see....ha.ha.   sweet, loving, caring...sounds more like you. 

Go...have yourself a day you will remember for a long time to come.  Be one that smiles and brings love and laughter to the day.   Enjoy your morning libation and add a little of the good stuff with it....I would but there is nothing good in this house.....smile....um....maybe I'll scramble some eggs...butter some toast, there are other foods besides sweets....but..ha,ha....beggars cannot be choosers....

I wish you a day filled with love and laughter.   I wish you hugs. 

Be good, be kind, be gentle, be a light and show the way to a beautiful day.  Hugs to all.

Saturday

It is pitch black out my window, nothing moving, worker cars are parked on 'my' side and most folks are sound asleep and smart to stay cuddled up in their bed.   I am hoping my girls stop bye this morning and help me to change the print.   I should know how by now but the mind goes off on its own and memory remains a mystery as age creeps up and steals a bit of memory every day.  This getting old stuff is not all fun, but it is better than the alternative, as the saying goes....

It is Saturday and I am sure that I will think of something to do before this day is over.   I did my laundry yesterday, and I think I will cull some of the books down.  I can donate them to our library upstairs.   I am one of those who saves a good book to reread...sounds good, but there is never enough time to reread...a new book is always waiting for attention. 

So, it is early, coffee cup is empty, tv needs to be turned on to find out what happened in the wee hours...and a new Saturday is here to enjoy.   I hope you find much pleasure in your hours and catch up with all you intend to do....

I was out with my girls for dinner last night and enjoyed their company and the food we ordered;  nothing to complain about...doesn't that sound good for a change....griping and groaning is such a bad habit....we forget to tell about the good times.    Having dinner out with my girls is a special treat as they put the fun into our time together and we are known for our clean plates...smile.  And our friend Louis stopped by with a hug and a smile.  He is such a good guy.

I am off...well you already know that....smile.    Be good, be kind, be generous to a fault...share a hug or two and a few kind words along the way.   The key to a successful day is a smile!!!!  I am singing..."have I told you lately that I love you....well "darlin, I'm telling you now".....go....have yourself a day to remember.  Hugs to all.

A Friday Morning Offering...Smile!!!

Good morning to you...if the letters were any smaller we wouldn't be able to read the message.   Well, I didn't have a lot to offer anyway.  I just wanted to wish you a good Friday...a weekend coming up to enjoy and we have yet to find out what kind of weather we are going to have and where we might think of going and all the plotting and planning that goes into a 'what to do' weekend.   A trip would be nice, but where?   Well, right now to the kitchen for a warm up of my coffee;  I just devoured my first cup so have no excuse as to why I cannot finish my blog....have nothing to write about because I didn't go anywhere or do anything exciting.   So.....I wish you a good Friday , all day, doing what you want to do....I know the have to do comes first.  So as our Irish ancestors would say..."Have the rest of the day to yourself"  and I might add "make it a good day, all day, doing what YOU want to do."  I am off for a refill, hunker down in my easy chair and wake up....Have yourself a day to remember....be good, be kind, be YOU.  Hugs to all.

Thursday, January 17, 2019

A New Thursday Morning!!

Good morning.   I have no idea how or why the print is so small....to early to find out..smile.

It is Thursday all day, wonder what is in store for us.    Maybe some nice surprises, that wouldn't hurt at all.

I am almost awake.  I had my first sip of coffee and it tasted so good....a waker upper....and the cup is empty so I am off for a refill and will be back shortly.

AAH!!!!  Tasty, hot and so good, no wonder the cup is empty so soon. 

We have a new Thursday to work with ....no plans yet....but I am sure something will come up before the day is over.  If I remember correctly, I think daughter Christine is making a special soup to day...and I am a soup lover....I'll bring desert.

Right now the sky is very unusual with a black cloud over the tree tops, a strange sky of black and blue.   Maybe we are in for some rain today.   Too early to tell.

I see the worker cars are parked on my side this morning.  It is so black out there it is hard to tell even with the night light on....roof tops look wet so maybe we had a little rain in the night. 

There is a patch of blue in the sky, very pretty.  It is quiet, silent really, no movement at the moment.  I have one eye open ...that is a start...smile.

So...I wish you a good day, all day.  I hope you get to do what you want to do and not what you have to do...smile.    I hope you find time t share with family and friends and get out and about doing what you love to do.   So, make today your day and find reasons to smile, giggle a bit and for heaven sake laugh out loud it is good for you.

I'm off, well you don't have to agree with me,.,,ha.ha.    I am off for a refill of my coffee, hunker in my easy chair, a bit of news, feet up,   aah....a new day.

Be good, be kind, be gentle, be YOU.   Hugs to all.

Wednesday, January 16, 2019

Hump Day

Good Wednesday morning, pitch black outside my window, one car coming into the parking lot, not a bit of light coming from the hospital wing, early morning silence.....coffee is hot and tasty...aah!!! Good morning, how are you today?    I hope good...healthy, wealthy and wise....then you can adopt me and take me away from all of 'this'....smile.

I am trying to enlarge the print. 

It is pitch black outside.  One or maybe two cars are parked already.   It is very early.  The side light is on the hospital wall but no lights  on within.   I am in need of a refill and to look for something to go with my coffee.  There is nothing good in this house....ha.ha.  you have heard that before.    I am laughing, you cannot hide anything around here for a new day, I know all the hiding spots.

It is much to dark to see anything outside.   So, I think I'll just say good morning and go sit in my easy chair and watch some morning news.   I have to think of some plan for today...have no idea what the girl are planning but I hope they include me.    I'd like to go out for awhile...maybe do a little shopping at the grocery store.  I have not had fresh fruit in awhile and my taste buds seem to be thinking in that direction.   I used to like to have a half grapefruit, my that has been awhile.  An orange is always tasty.   So, for now I'll settle for a refill, turn on the news and hunker down for another hour or so.   Five a.m. is just o early to motivate....ha.ha.    you are not even awake to agree or disagree.

So.....have a good day all day doing what you love to do best.  Be kind, be gentle, be YOU.   Hugs to all.





Tuesday, January 15, 2019

Tuesday All Day!!!

Good Morning.    Pitch black out my window, Tuesday, a new day, only one light on in a window across the way, a senior lady propped up on her pillows most likely watching the television as she waits patiently for her breakfast.   I have had my first cup of coffee.   I am ready for a refill.   I had an English muffin that wasn't really good, but that was all there was this morning.    I cannot keep myself in sweets, so try not to buy them often as I don't have sense enough to spread them out but devour them as fast as I can.   A sweet tooth....a round figure and there is no cure that I know of..smile.

We have a new Tuesday, right now pitch black outside so I have no idea what kind of a day we are in for.   I have no special plans so it really doesn't matter,    I was out and about yesterday, got my hair cut and got only a fair job.   Some of the girls cut my hair so it looks good and then there are one or two that cut and it develops a plan of its own .  I'd say this one isn't all bad but it isn't really a good cut either.   My ears are showing, the hair cut across the ear and I look like I need a shaping.  Some of the young ladies cut the hair just right and then I had to get the lady who loves to cut like she put a bowl over your head.   It will grow....In a week or two it will be just right and then it will need to be cut again..ha.ha.

I sound like I am groaning and moaning this morning...what a way to start a new week....I guess if I reheat my coffee mug and sip a little more hot coffee I will change my attitude.   I am going to hunker in my favorite chair, turn on the television and find out what happened in the night.

I hope your day is a good one filled with loving family and friends.   Balance your day with a little hard work, a few good deeds and 'make hay in the sunshine and have some fun.... be all you can be...kindness never goes out of style.  BUT, the cardinal rule is to have some fun....work and play go hand in hand.....chores first,   fun follows and you can chalk up another 'good' day.

Early morning quiet.....um.....off to my easy chair, turn on the television, feet up and 'hunker down';   no rush, no fuss, it's early Tuesday morning...about five a.m......um....sounds to early to be up and about....wrap up in my blanket....I can snooze through anything. 

Be good, be kind, be gentle, be YOU....Hugs to all.

Monday, January 14, 2019

Monday, already!!!

Time flies when you are having fun....so the saying goes, I find it flies even when you are not having fun..smile.   It is a new Monday, dark outside my window so cannot tell what kind of a day we are in for.  The courtyard is pitch black, a few cars parked out there , night workers I guess....one light on in one of the rooms ...early morning....one eye open....need a refill of my coffee....cup is empty already...that first cup goes down like it knows what it is doing.  smile!!!

My Sunday was a quiet day, a work in the drawer with papers and folders to cull down and throw away a mess of unused materials which have long outlived their usefulness.   It takes time to go through 'stuff' but once done...aah....freedom, room for more stuff...ha.ha. 

A new week begins.  A new Monday to fill...no idea what I want to do yet ..but, I'll think of something before the day is over.  Right now I am ready for hot coffee, blogging to finish and a refill of my coffee as I turn on the news of the morning and find out what happened in the wee hours.   Hopefully nothing I cannot live without.

I wish you a good day, all day, doing what you love to do best.   Stay healthy, happy, content and share you with those you love and like.  Share YOU and make the world a better and brighter place.   Have a Monday to remember, one filled with love and laughter.  Hugs to all.

Sunday Morning

Good morning!!!  It seems to me I just did a blog and it was Sunday;   my,  how the days go bye so fast, almost as fast as my coffee ;  the cup is empty, off for a refill and wake up some more.

 AAH!!!  coffee!!!  coffee! 

A new Sunday and we have a special show at the gallery today.   I am not sure who the artists are but each one has a special talent and the shows are always well attended and enjoyed.   Right now it is black out my window, a sky that looks calm as the trees are motionless and there is no noise of any kind.  The night light is shining on the side of the hospital wing.  One patient is up with the blinds open and the television on.  Silence is awesome.  No wind this morning, everything calm and quiet.

So....I will love you and leave you, go to my favorite chair, turn on the television and wait for a decent hour to get dressed and out the door for a little time at the gallery and the artist for the day. 

Be good, be kind, be loving....a mixture that guarantees a very good day.

Hugs to all.




Friday, January 11, 2019

Now it is Friday morning!!

Good morning.   It is pitch black out there, can't tell the sky from  earth.  You can see one patient over in the hospital wing as the blinds are up on the window and the lady is awake, sitting quietly, probably waiting for some breakfast.  I am ready for something good but 'there is nothing good in this house'  ...ha..ha...well I have a good appetite.

The night light is still on over on the hospital building.   No cars coming in, too early.   Quiet, even the car motors cooperate in the early hours....smile. 

It is a new Friday and I have no plans as yet.   I could use a trip to the grocery store as I seem to be out of everything, especially the sweet stuff which I really do not need but convince myself that I cannot live without it....I see my reflection in the window and I am sure there is more than one chin...sugar tells every time...

So, I wish you a good day, a special day, a day with love and laughter.   Be good, be kind, be YOU.  Don't forget to share YOU with those you love and like.    Friday is a day for good deeds so get busy.  Be kind, be loving, be YOU.   Hugs to all.

Thursday, January 10, 2019

A New Thursday Morning!!

Good Morning.   I still have small print this morning and have no idea why.    I don't know how to fix it so will put in a call to Christine to come and rescue me.   You would think by now I'd know the ropes...smile.

It is pitch black out my window.   Must be five a.m. didn't take time to look at the clock.  I have had my first cup of coffee and need a refill so I'll give you a break and catch up when the print catches up..smile.    Meanwhile have a good day all day.   Hugs. 

Wednesday, January 9, 2019

Hump Day!!!!!

The sky is baby blue, trees are still, nothing moving and I have no idea why the print is so small....one of those mornings .   Time for an SOS call to daughter Christine to come and rescue me.  I'll be back.  Meanwhile have a good morning, hope your morning libation is tasty.  



Tuesday, January 8, 2019

Good Morning!!!

My little desk calendar says "Now it's Tuesday Morning";   well, it is....and it looks like it wants to rain.  The worker cars are all in and parked under my window, and one put up a cover on the window as they must have sunshine on their brain although I'd say it looks like rain may be on the way.  The sky is a light blue, clear, tree tops still, no wind this morning.   The bird is on the roof top, and the night light is still glaring...needs a cover...well, I think so...shines in my window and it is not the prettiest sight around.

I have no new news this morning.  I am waiting for daughter Christine who will be coming soon as we have a job to do today.  I love having helper jobs as they keep my mind and fingers busy.   

The television is blaring, not really loud as I'd wake others up, but I am sitting next to it and it sounds loud....Keep me awake...smile.

So, go, have yourself a good day all day doing what you love to do best.   Be kind and your day will embrace you.   Go....be YOU!!!  Hugs to all.



Monday, January 7, 2019

Monday, Monday, la, la, la......

Baby its dark outside!!!   Must be five a.m.  I am awake....debatable.....one eye...the other is slow to open....coffee cup empty, I just filled it.....be right back, have to go for a refill so I can open the other eye...smile.

The tarmac is wet, worker cars are on the way out so it must be the end of the night shift and soon the day workers will be coming in.   The hospital wing is dark but for one window with the shades down but they have tiny lights on the bottom of the window, left over from Christmas.  There is no sky, the early morning blackness is evident and the night light on the side of the building is shining brightly. 

A new week begins.    I would love to say I have plans to run away and enjoy a trip but that is not happening.   Daughter Christine is coming over this morning and we are doing some work on the computer.   The mind is still asleep or I'd be able to tell you what we are up to....maybe later, smile!!!

Have a good day ..all day....catch up with yourself..be YOU!!!   Don't forget to be thoughtful, kind, gentle with your family and friends and make your today wonderful.   Coffee....aah!!!  need a refill so off I go.   I just refilled my cup,  wonder I don't burn my tongue,  but I have it broken in to enjoy the heat and taste of the good old coffee bean....glad I don't have to do without it.    Off for a refill and to blog.  Go....have a good day, all day, and be the best you can be....a hug or two never hurts...share them with those you love and like. 

Three little words...be...good, kind and loving....and your day will be special just like YOU.


Sunday, January 6, 2019

Sunday Night

Hello!!  I hope you had a good day, all day, doing what you wanted to do and what you really truly like to do...I know...sharing and caring, part of your makeup, part of your wanting to share time and love with those you really care about.   Sunday is always a good sharing day.  I spent time with my girls and I had a wonderful day, all day, a little wine and whine..smile....a lot of sharing and caring , a day to file away in the memory book.  We had breakfast out at our favorite restaurant;  shared time and later a movie that was not all bad, but...ha.ha.   one of those....great tid bits to enjoy;   delicious dinner later;  eating has to be the highlight of every day as we seem to want to spend more time at the table than anywhere else...smile.....food...goodies.....deserts....hot coffee....no complaints and the company is really the best.  So, hopefully your Sunday was one of the best you have had in a long while.   I hope you had family and friends to share time with.   I hope you are feeling like Tony the Tiger...G R E A T!!!! 

A new week starting tomorrow morning.   A new week to catch up with yourself doing the things you love to do best.   Be healthy, if you are wealthy... share...if not, get in line with the rest of us...smile!!!

We have a new week coming up;  we have iffy weather which could turn beautiful and we could take advantage of it by going out the door and basking in the sunlight.   As the old saying goes..."sleep tight, don't let the bed bugs bite."  wonder who came up with that....I like "sleep sweet"  or "dream sweet dreams";  so I'll say good night, sweet dreams and catch up so I'll know you are living life with both eyes wide open.    Be good, be kind, be gentle, be YOU!!!  Hugs to all.

Saturday Morning

Good morning.   Pitch black outside in the sky, the night light is on over on the side of the hospital building and only one patient is up with the blinds open.  It is early, probably not even five a.m. but some of us get a wake up call earlier than others...why???  who knows....I just know my body clock  is set for the early hours.  The sky is dark, not a tree showing, like a blank screen out there.  The row of night lights has a pattern to it, seven, one, two, in a long row and only two window lights on in the patients rooms, one with the blinds wide open the other with the blinds down but the tiny lights on the window sill show bright.  It is way to early and my coffee cup is empty so I am going to give you a break this morning and go quietly to my chair, turn on the news station and listen to what happened in the night....and sip away...aah...coffee...what would we do without it, I don't want to find out.   I need a refill....So go...have yourself a great Saturday doing what you want to do.   When you have time, send me a word or two.   Make your today wonderful, just like YOU!!!!


Friday, January 4, 2019

It is Friday!!!

Good morning to you;  Good morning to you....la, la,...I'm singing as I wait for the 'other eye' to open.   It is Friday...it is not even six a.m., tv news is on and I should listen but I am waking up and need coffee first...so...off to the kitchen...coffee pot to get ready and look for something to go with it...yeah, I am one of those, wake up with an appetite....how else could I keep this girlish figure.  The sky is interesting this morning, a twin star is shining, unusual, different, looks like a plane with flickering lights.  There is a huge black cloud behind the trees which are still, nothing moving.  Folks are getting up over in the hospital wing, a few blinds down but lights on behind them, one has a tv on and seem to be looking for a station to settle on.   I am waking up...honest....

but ...I want my coffee......coffee.....aah!!!!

The sky is interesting this morning, looks like a big black or , I should say, dark blue area with a bit of light grey and light blue, sort of a stormy look to it.  Trees are still, cars coming in slowly , a new work day, a new day to be busy and hopefully in good spirits to give the  patients reasons to smile.  I emptied my coffee cup ..so...off for a refill, hunker down in my chair and listen to the news of the day. 

I hope your Friday is a good day and you make your shopping list with a few goodies added so you can invite those you like and love for a cuppa....tea is good,    Go....make today a good one...a fun one....share you with those you like and love.   If you have been busy , take time to call...someone misses hearing from you....be good, be kind, be a beacon of light today...hugs mend, smiles mend,  and kind words solve so many problems. 

Go....have a day that is special, just like YOU!!!!  Hugs to all.



Thursday, January 3, 2019

Good Thursday Morning!!

Good Morning!!!  It is Thursday morning about five o'clock in the morning...smile....yes, early, but I am one of those who finds early is good and I enjoy the quiet, the silence, the darkness of the sky and the happenings going on outside my window as the workers come into the parking lot and start a new work day.

I did not go anywhere, do much of anything interesting so have little to write about this morning.   The spirit is willing but I didn't go out adventuring and my yesterday was a quiet day, a reading day, a hump day that was almost silent.  I would venture to say, 'a good day'....smile.

Right now the pavement is wet, so it must be misting out there, not rain as there are no rain drops on my window pane.   I cannot see where the sky begins and ends, pitch black out there which I expect in the wee hours.    I'd sleep more but the body clock says 'up' and here I am....almost awake...smile.....well, almost is good, so do not complain.  I just didn't go anywhere, do anything new and different so have little to say this morning...lucky you...ha.ha.

So...I wish you a good day, all day, doing what YOU love to do best.   Be good, be kind, be gentle, share YOU with those you love and like.   Good deeds never go out of style.  Hugs are always welcome.   A good day to call a family member and a friend or two and wish them well.   A good day to catch up with yourself and do what you want to do ...and have to do...might as well get it all in...smile.

Be a charmer!!  Be a winner!   BE YOU!!!  Hugs to all.

Evening --Wednesday

Hello again.   I just opened my door and it is pitch black outside, a feeling of mist, a rain may be on the way, but right now it is night time, dark, a bit on the cold side with a bit of breeze.   Good time to stand on the balcony and look around even though there is little to see in the dark of night.   But...there is something good about standing in the dark of night time and looking around at the lights both up in the sky and down and around the grounds.  I have been in all day, no place to go, no invitations out, no company in;  what I call a down day...but a restful one and the television has been good company, interspersed with a chapter or two of a good tale, so..all is not lost...smile.

Daughter Patricia came bye to check up on me.  She keeps a good eye on me.   We didn't have time or funds to whoop it up and go gaming or 'fooding' but we did have a good visit and it broke up my day...a good thing.

For one reason or another it seemed like a Sunday so when I checked my little desk calendar and see it is Wednesday, I was surprised and have to smile as this is hump day and tomorrow leads to a new day and then the upcoming weekend.  Time...what would we do if we didn't have time to spare?   We are more than lucky...smile.

I hope your day was fruitful, hope you found places to go and things to do.  AND, I hope you had someone to share time with as that is what makes the difference.    SO!!!!  I will say good night....sleep tight.....have dreams you want to share and stay healthy, wealthy and wise.

Be good, be kind, be YOU.  Hugs to all.





Hump Day!!

Good Morning!!!  Early morning darkness, hospital roof lights on, only one person with lights on over in the hospital wing, the rest of the window blinds are closed tight and the folks sleeping;  well....it is all of five a.m. and smart folks sleep and then there is 'us' the early birds who wake up , stay up, drink coffee and blog....ha.ha.    a truism, haven't done one of those in awhile.

So Wednesday is here, hump day, and we are waking up slowly to find out what is in store for us today.   I have no special plans, but then my brain is not awake yet so I really have no idea what I plan for today,or if I planned for today...um...don't think so...but we will find out once the brain kicks into gear and the memory is jogged to awareness....right now my coffee cup is empty, going for a refill, will blog a bit, and then hunker down in my easy chair, turn on the tv and find out what has transpired in the night.   But.....not before I wish you a good day, all day, doing what you want to do and, of course, what you have to do...those chores do not get done all by themselves.

Go....have yourself a day to remember, finish up those chores you put off and don't forget to be generous with your hugs....I'd like one....but will settle for a verbal one right now.    Be good....be kind...be YOU....Hugs to all.

Happy New Year!!!

Good Morning,  Tuesday morning and the beginning of a brand new year.  There is frost on the hospital roof top, trees are in a mist, so still and so beautiful;  and all the worker cars are parked on 'my' side this morning.    My coffee is hot and delicious.  I didn't think to buy something 'good' to go with it.   I may scramble an egg and butter some toast or , come to think of it, call the girls and see if I can take them out for breakfast....but....I am not quite awake and it looks frosty out there and I am not 'in the mood' to rush about and put my shoes on...smile.   talked myself out of that one in a hurry!!!

Go....have a tasty breakfast;   share time with your family and friends;   be a beacon of love this morning and share YOU with those you love and like.

Happy New Year, make it a really healthy and happy one.  If you contribute YOU then you are on your way to one of your best years yet. 

The parade is on...what else??  ha, ha.   coffee is hot or tea if you prefer....I am on my way to a refill, feet up on the hassock, nestled in my chair...and...watch the parade.

I am hoping each of you have a blessed day, a day to remember for a long time to come.   Be healthy, be wealthy and then you can adopt me....be YOU...Hugs to all.
