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.

Friday Morning

Good morning. The sky is cloudy; mist on the roof top along with the little bird who visit every day. There is a silence this time of the morning and even the motors of the incoming cars are silent...amazing. My coffee is hot and tasty and should wake me up. The workers are coming in slowly and one young lady is carrying her hot coffee or tea and moving along like she means business. All is quiet and the fog in the trees has a tale to tell all its own. I have one eye open, coffee, coffee....aah!!!!! Today is Friday and one of my neighbor is walking his dog. It is a bit hazy this morning. A new silver car is on the lot this morning, two black van types and a new light tan coupe just parked under my window. One young lady is texting as she walks along, probably telling her children to wake up and mind their manners. It has to be hard to have to work and keep your mind on the children getting ready for a new day. As for me, I am almost awake. My coffee cup is empty and that will never do. So,off for a refill, hunker in my easy chair and watch the news. One eye open, one to go...sip hot coffee, feet up...a new day. I hope you have a good day, all day, doing what you want to do as well as doing all those chores you have to do.;....they do not go away until YOU make them disappear...ha.ha....a lesson well learned in life. for the most part it doesn't bother us as we are so used to it. SO....go....have a good day, all day doing what you do best. Be a good friend....if you are lucky, be a good lover...smile....one never forgets a lesson to love. One of the workers just walked bye wearing a very bright red top; wow....a wake up color.....blinding!!!! So....have yourself a good day, all day, doing what you do best. Take good care of you so you an take good care of others in your family as well as with friends. Be good, be kind, be loving .....be YOU!!! Hugs to all.

Thursday Evening

Sun still shining brightly....just watched Jeremiah Johnson (spelling?) again....must be a record. smile. One of the best Westerns ever made according to me. The sun is still out and it gets warmer around seven p,m. instead of cooling down.It is starting to play again, wonder how come....I will find something else as I've seen it once today and a hundred times over the years.. smile. It has been a quiet day, no visitors; girls busy so didn't get to spend time with the today and I wasn't feeling real spry to go out to lunch with them. I am trying to have a sore throat. Think Pat has had one as I think Jock came with one. Doesn't take much to spread it about. I hope you and Jo had a good day. Catch up when you have some time. Off to put the tea pot on...and there is nothing 'good' in this house...ha...ha....you have heard that before. Love you. Give Jo a hug and get one back. Catch up. I miss you.

Thursday Morning!!

Good Morning. Folks coming in for their new work day and parking in front of my window this morning. There are two new white cars, one vanilla shade and a black; quiet; bird on the roof top and all is quiet; early morning silence. Not a bit of a breeze, trees are still. The beginning of a new day. There are three very white cars parked out there; one vanilla shade and one black so far this morning.no tree branches moving ...silence....the beginning of a brand new day. Plans???? Nope....have to catch up on some chores and laundry is on the list.For someone who doesn't dress up a lot, I manage to have a laundry pile to contend with. The little bird is on the rooftop watching the workers drive in and park. The sky is a light silver blue, quiet...silence really. I have no new news as I didn't go anywhere or do anything to brag about. There is smoke coming out of the hospital roof top and there are four all white cars , brand new, on the lot and one beige and one black that I can see from my window. Silence. Nothing moving at the moment. My coffee cup is empty, so off I go...a new cup of hot coffee...feet up on the hassock, news on....quiet time. no rush...have to wake up...and...face a new day. A Thursday, all day.....time flies!! I hope your day is a good one and you get to do all you want to do, not what 'has to be done'..smile. Have some fun and hug a friend or two. A verbal hug is good....so send out a few and make someone smile. Have a good day, all day. Hugs to all.

Hello. Just thinking about you and Jo, hope you are having a good day all day. I'm walking the hall doing laundry today, good exercise...so I tell me..ha.ha. love you..have some fun today. Catch up when you have time. love you...more every day.

It's Wednesday Morning

Good morning. A new Wednesday, hump day, mid week, soft blue in the sky; trees are not moving at all and two little birds are nesting in a bush across the way, both busy flying in and out, so busy so early in the morning. I have one eye open, coffee hot and tasty and a new day. No breeze of any kind, the little bird is sitting on the roof top of the hospital wing watching the cars come in. Only four cars out there this morning but it is very early...the rest will follow soon. I find the stillness and quiet refreshing. One of our men is out walking his little dog, a daily chore he seems to enjoy. As for the cars there is one silver with a glass roof top; a navy blue with a big luggage rack on top,and a black short coupe like car but more like a small sedan and low to the ground. Silence, quiet so I am going to refill my coffee cup, hunker in my easy chair and watch some news for awhile. I hope your day is a good one and you find reasons to laugh out loud. Be good, be kind, be YOU!!! Hugs to all.

Good Night!!!!

A note to say goodnight, sleep tight....give Jo a hug and get one back....just in from Pat's, dinner, deserts, full....full...smile.Hope your day was good and you and Jo had some fun. I'm tired...shoes off....tv on....and early to bed tonight...I'm tired.....and full...full of good tarts from the local bakery which Chris picks out each dinner...so good...fattening...smile. but who counts calories...not me. Sleep sweet; give Jo a hug and get one back. Catch up when you have some time. I miss you. I love you. Mom

Tuesday Morning!!

My little calendar says it is Tuesday morning. I didn't know that....smile. not awake....worker cars parked under my window, two black and three white...all new...one tan just drove by so parking is off in the back of the lot. The trees are still, the bird is on the roof top and nothing is moving at the moment; all is quiet...silent....a new day begins. cowboys are on . Little birds are flying in and out of the bushes across the way. They are a rose shade and a bright pink which attracts the birds. I think one has a nest in there as it spends a lot of time going in and out of the bush. It is a bit breezy a the little tree here in the yard area is moving a lot, while the big trees across the way are not moving much at all. A new day. Wonder what is in store for me today. I have laundry to do...ha.ha. well that gives me something to do,..I'd rather go out the door and forget it....when are the promised paper clothing coming out..not in my life time...smile. I hope your day is a good one and you find things to do, people to share time with and have a bit of fun. Be good, be kind, be gentle, be a friend. I'm going to love you and leave you for this morning...coffee....coffee....feet up, tv on....no rush, no fuss.....a new day begins. I am off....ha.ha. I can hear what you are saying!!! I am singing "Love me tender, love me sweet...." ha, ha. off I go...a new day...a busy one I hope sharing time with family and friends. Share YOU with those you love and like. Make your today memorable. Hugs to all.

Now It is SUnday....Morning....Quiet!!!!

Good Morning. trees are still; the little bird is on the roof top and the worker cars are parked in front of my window this morning; twos white, two dark blue or black, and a tan one that I can see from my window. It is quiet inside and out. Sunday, all day, and my plans are open, not a thought as to what or where I can go today but I am sure some one thing will come up and I will find places to go and things to do or join the puzzle crowd for a little while. Sunday is a quiet day, as it should be. We need a quiet day just to reinvent ourselves for the coming week. There are two black and two white cars parked outside my window this morning. The shades are still down in the hospital wing with the exception of one early bird. There is a painter on television making it look easy....ha.ha....now we can try and see just how 'simple it is'....now I'll tell one!! ha..ha. Painting is fun as long as you have no expectations of perfection...smile. I am off for a coffee refill; feet up for awhile; maybe I'll learn something about painting if I watch carefully. We should set up an easel and paint along with him; um....that would be fun. Enjoy your Sunday; be good, be calm, be sweet and make someone you love, and like...smile.....happy you are in their life today. Enjoy today. Hugs to all.

A Second Saturday writing!!!!

Good morning again; I finished a blog and was going to go refill my coffee cup but the trees are still, the little bird still on the roof top across the way and all the worker cars in front of my window and I thought I'd keep you company for a little while longer. Silence out there, not even a slight breeze. The sky is a soft light blue, the trees are shaking a bit in the wind and the little bird has yet to move. TV is on, waiting for the cowboys to start....need to refill my coffee cup and settle in for an hour or two. It is Saturday, all day, nothing planned, no invitations so far, and I am not in a hurry to move about..smile. So....I wish you a good Saturday doing what you want to do...go, put your feet up, hunker down for an extra hour or two and relax. Hugs to all.

Now Its Saturday Morning!!!!

The sky is light blue, bird on the roof top, trees not moving, cars all parked on my side and silence...I am not quite awake but working on it. I am off to the kitchen and put on some coffee then I'll be able to open both eyes, put the mind in gear and greet you this Saturday morning. AAH!!!! Coffee, hot and black.... I have no news this morning. I have no plans this morning. I am not even awake this morning....well, what can you expect this time of the morning...the brain is still asleep and in nor hurry to wake up; well there are Saturday morning cowboys to watch on television.....the little bird is on the roof to across the way and all is quiet and still. There are four black cars park ed outside my window and one white with long luggage braces on the roof top. As you can tell, I have nothing much to add as I am not awake...smile. Coffee....Coffee....off to the kitchen for a refill....hunker in my easy hair and watch the cowboys.....I will catch up with you later ...maybe I will get to go out for awhile and have something to write about. Right now the brain is asleep and I think I'll leave it like that and go to my easy chair and catch up with the outside world a bit later. Have yourself a good day, all day, doing what yOU want to. A quiet Saturday morning, tv on, cowboys riding the range ...."move em out, move em up...rawhide!!!! Make your Saturday a good day, all day and add a lot of laughter to your day. Hugs to all.

Friday, May 24, 2019

Now It's Friday morning!!!

My little calendar says so...the trees are still, the sky is soft and light blue and the worker cars are parked under my window this morning. I see four white; one black and one tan truck. It is silent...not a breeze to stir the leaves of the trees and the little bird seems complacent on the roof top.Only one blind up in the hospital wing, most snoozing in. The work man is going bye heading indoors ready for a new day. There are new and shiny cars and trucks under my window this morning. A pickup truck soft tan with black trim, four white, all different models, one black, all new and shiny, not a dent in a fender...smile. All is quiet, silent really, even the trees are not moving and silence fills the air. A new day...a new early morning and my coffee is delicious. Hot and tasty. I looked for something good to go with it but there is nothing good in this house....ha, ha, ha.....you have heard that before. If it is sweet it is gone before the bag is in the trash... I would introduce myself to 'will power' but for some reason or another it seems to allude me. It is Friday morning and I have no plans. Pat and Jock are going off to meet some of his family and have a fun day. Haven't heard what Christine is up to, maybe she will find something to keep me busy. If not, there is a puzzle upstairs that always needs attention, and fun friends to share time with. I hope you day is a fun one an you get to go places and do things you want to do. Off for a refill of my coffee....have cowboys on....smile......and my feet will be up on the hassock, .... aah!!! Friday morning , no rush, no fuss....a whole new day to find things to do and place to go and folks to share time with.....go!!! have a good day, a fun day, doing what YOU want to do. Hugs to all.

Thursday, May 23, 2019

Thursday All day!!!

The sky is a soft blue, mist in the tree tops and not a bit of wind this morning. The little bird is on the roof top watching the cars come in for the day. The trees are still and the flower bushes take on a bright look of their own in the mist. Blinds are down in the hospital wing and silence fills the air. A new day, wonder what is in store for us.....we are about to find out...smile. My coffee cup is empty, so off for a refill....need to wake up so I can spend a few minutes with YOU. AAH!!! Coffee, what would we do if we didn't have it to wake us up. Well there is cocoa and tea but it is not the same as a good cup of hot black coffee. Here it is Thursday already, my time flies when you are having fun..smile. It flies whether you are having fun or not, I find....the older once gets the faster it goes. I shared time with Pat and Jock, lunched out in our favorite spot and had a good visit. They will be taking off today to meet up with his family and share some time. So....I am off to refill my coffee cup; find my way to my easy chair, tv on and sit awhile. It takes a little more time to wake up ...the temptation to go back for a few more z's is always on hand....but if I did go lay back I'd have both eyes open and lay there thinking about getting up....a losing battle in the early morning. The birds are flying around over by the tree across the way. One is sitting on the roof top and nothing is moving, so no breeze...still and quiet out there. I am off for a refill, going to hunker down in my easy chair and turn on the news....a new day....have yourself a good day, all day, doing what you want to do. Take good care of you...I will be back...smile. Hugs to all.

Hump Day!!

Good Morning. The sky is filled with clouds, still, trees are not moving. All the worker cars are parked on my side today and there are two brand new grey ones, very light grey and pretty. There is light tan colored truck, several different models of cars that are dark in color, black, Navy blue, one has a deep purple cast to it, different. The sky is filled with clouds in a broken pattern which shows the blue through a maze of white. No breeze at all, the bird on the roof top, blinds down in the hospital wing and all is silent. There are two bushes that are colorful and alive in shades of pink, both different, one light in color the other vibrant. No wind, all still, morning silence, a new day begins. I have no plans for today as I have some necessary chores to get done...laundry....never ending, and the dust needs to be moved around. The bird is on the roof top, all is silent at the moment and patches of blue show thorough. My coffee cup is empty, drank that down in a hurry in hopes of opening both eyes...smile. So mid week and heading for a bit of shopping; the cupboards are bare and there is little or nothing 'good' in the fridge. I found a piece of bread to toast and it was okay....but....not like having a big fat jelly doughnut. We all have to do the right thing in keeping our bodies in tune...smile. There is a parade of cars and trucks working there way in right now. A truck, a small car and all the spaces are filled o this side of the parking lot. I guess there is room in the back area. Put a little fun in your day; be a friend.....be kind and useful....smile so everyone will wonder just what you are up to.....share kindness and light up your world with a smile. Have yourself a day to remember. Hugs to all.

A New Tuesday!!

Good Morning. It is quiet this morning. The bird is on the rooftop across the way, the blinds are still down and the worker cars are parked on my side this morning. Patriotic as there is a red, a white and a very dark blue car parked outside my window. I do see a little movement in the tip of the high tree leaves but for the most part every thing looks still...quiet....one of the lady workers is looking in her car window and fixing her hair...smile. Someone must be celebrating a birthday as she is carrying in a treat or two, can't tell from here. A new day, have to settle down from all my fun time and get some 'work' done; that laundry basket fills up quickly, no rest for the wicked...smile. So...I will let you off easy this morning. Have a good day, all day, doing what you want to do. Be good, be kind, be gentle and loving as only YOU can be. Drop a note when you have time. I like to know what you are up to...smile. a lot of good, I'm sure. An empty coffee cup...well....that will never do. So off I go...coffee, easy chair, news, and a new day begins. I hope each and everyone of you have a day you will enjoy from early morning to late tonight. I hope you find family member to love, neighbors to share time with as you garden and talk over the fence...I miss those days but second best is the meeting and greeting when we have our lunch break a bit later. So go....have yourself a good day, all day....be good...be kind....be YOU!! Hugs to all.

Good Morning. I am not really awake but working on it. I have had my first sip of coffee....aah!!! It looks cloudy out my window, cars parked right under it this morning and it looks like it might rain, well the trees are still, the bird is on the roof top and the sky is a very light baby blue. Nothing moving at the moment. The beginning of a new week. My sons have left and are on their way back to their own lives. It was so good to have them here, and I miss them already.Granddaughter Erin picked up a cold germ so is going to have to have a down day today. As for me, I am planning a quiet day. It is such fun to have the family all here and all of the excitement and fun that goes with it. Right now the Lucy show is on and she has a way of making me laugh out loud...so, off to the easy chair for awhile. No plans for today, have to catch up with some chores and the laundry basket has a way of filling up .... I hope your day is a good one and you enjoy your seconds.

A New Tuesday!!!

Good Morning. I have a little time before Pat comes to pick me up to go out to breakfast this morning. It is a hazy day, pale sky, no wind at all and the little bird is on the roof top across the way. All of the worker cars are parked in front of my window and I have two white cars, three black I can see the others are down a bit so I cannot get a peek at them. The workers are all in...the bird is waiting to see who else is coming in..smile. It is quiet, silent really. I enjoy going out to breakfast just because...smile. Time flies when you are having fun, so off I go and I will be back a bit later to tell you all about it. I hope your day is a good one, all day, and you do all of the things you want to do.

A New Monday!!!

Good Morning To YOU....Good Morning to YOU!!! I'm singing, aren't you glad you cannot hear me...ha.ha. The worker cars are all in and parked under my window this morning. There is a new grey one that has a large glass roof top, a beauty, bet it cost a pretty penny. The trees are still, the bird is on the roof top across the way and the blinds are down in the hospital wing, all but one that is. Early morning silence, even the car motors do not make a noise...smile. That first cup of coffee goes down fast, need a refill, be right back. AAH!!! Coffee, a sip and the eyes open..smile. The start of a new week, no special plan as yet but I am sure each day will bring a new adventure and I will be out and about. I hope you are up and feeling good and making plans for your week. Have a good day, all day, doing what you want to do. I am heading for my easy chair, coffee in hand, tv on ...feet up....aah!!! I'll be back..later......Hugs to all.

Sunday evening

Someone is going to smile as a young man is walking up the courtyard with flowers in hand and I would guess he is about to make someone smile; flowers have a way of saying what is in the heart and gives us reason to smile. Yep, I was lucky and got a beautiful bouquet that is on my dining room table. It is Sunday evening and I have my shoes off and are not going anywhere for the rest of this day. I was up early, out the door with two beautiful caring daughters and had a delicious breakfast cooked by granddaughter Erin and then went on to try my luck at the casino and although I did not come home with a chest full of money, I did come home with some of my own money and memories of love and laughter. Sunshine, a lovely ride, good company and lots of good things to eat and even a gift or two ...Mother's Day....Birthday....how lucky I am. The day itself was a gift of sunshine and fresh air. The ride was smooth and not a lot of heavy traffic although there were a lot of folks on the road. All in all I had a wonderful day and want to take time to say thank you to each and everyone of you who remembered me with love, laughter and a gift or two...how lucky I am. Thank you seems inadequate but the words and feelings are from my heart and I thank each and everyone for the love and care shared today. The sun is out, the trees are still, the lady across the way is changing the bird feeder or maybe just filling it to keep those hungry birds happy. There are only a couple of cars out there on the tarmac and the bird is still on the roof top. My shoes are off, my chair awaits and the tv is on. I am hunkering down and have no intention of going anywhere or doing anything more today. Well...a walk to the kitchen to look for something good and I don't think there is anything good in this house. If there was, I would have found it by now...smile. I hope your weekend was all you wanted it to be. I hope you found love and hugs to share. It is not to late as the sun is still up and there is time to make someone you love and like a bit of your love and attention before the day is gone. Be good, be kind be generous and share YOU with those you love and like. The trees are swaying in the breeze, the bird is on the rooftop, the silence can be heard and I am off to sit in my easy chair, watch a little TV and put my feet up but not before I go out to the kitchen, heat some coffee, and maybe look for a 'small'...'tiny' bit of something sweet.. if there is anything left...which I doubt. smile. Be good be kind, be a lover, be YOU!! Hugs to all.

Saturday morning!!

The sun is shining on the roof top of the hospital wing. The little bird is on the roof top and one of our men is out walking his dog. The trees are still and the cars are already parked in front of my window. A new Saturday, wonder what is in store for us!!! I think there is a tea at the gallery today. my brain is slowing down so I will have to check so I don't miss out...smile. Right now it is quiet, silence, nothing moving. There is a new white car out in the lot this morning, one blue and a grey truck so folks are coming in for another work day. My coffee cup is empty. I am not really awake yet and tv is on telling how 'hot' it is going to be today. So I am going to wish you a good day, all day, doing what you want to do....fun in the sun is always good. Make your Saturday a day to remember....a fun one....hug a friend or two.....kind words for those in need.....find reasons to shine and have yourself a good day ...all day. Hugs to all.

Friday All Day!!!

Good Friday morning, sunshine on the tree tops, worker cars coming in slowly and a new silver one is parked under my window. The bird is on the roof top across the way, the sun is on the trees and there is no wind..a new day...a soft day...hopefully a good day. I have not put on my coffee so off I go and I will be back.... Coffee!!! AAH!!!! Hot and tasty, a wake upper, I have three silver, two black cars in front of my window this morning and one tan truck that looks brand new. All the workers are in, shades are still down in the hospital wing, the sun is shining on the green bush making it come alive. A nice quiet morning and I have one eye open....and nothing new to add...I didn't go anywhere, do anything of interest and it is quiet and all is still. My girls are off to Costco and know my needs, now wants are a different story...smile. Maybe they will find a special 'goodie' and bring home a treat or two. The sun is shining and the little rose bush is bright and beautiful. The green bush has sunlight on its top and the bird is sitting on the edge of the rooftop watching the worker cars come in. Only one worker car takes two spaces, a new grey one, probably afraid to have it sides scratched... My cup is empty already so off I go, refill, hunker down in my easy chair, watch the tv for awhile and get ready for a new day. I hope you find thigs to do,places to go and a lot of fun in your day today. Be good, be kind, be you. Hugs to all.

Thursday, May 9, 2019

Now it is Thursday afternoon!!

I am back. I have been sitting here at the typewriter looking out the window to the hospital wing across the way and the huge tall trees behind it. The wind is up today, not really heavy but it is making the tree leaves sway. The trees and bushes in the yard area are lovely as the sunlight bathes the top of the leaves bringing out the yellow shades within the green of the bushes Underneath is a rose bush, pink roses, but the pink is not light but dark and a very beautiful shade. The worker cars are all in a row in front of my window and one of the workers is getting in, shift over and she is heading home. I bet she is happy her work day has ended and she has some lovely warmth and sunshine to enjoy. The bird is on the roof, the larger one of the two that visit and it has a long neck It is sitting up on the edge watching the cars go bye. As for me, I've been in and out...in right now and thinking of taking my shoes off..but then I could get an invitation to go out again and I would only have to put them back on...smile. I was off with Pat this morning and we had a ride down to our favorite restaurant for breakfast, always good, and the view of the water is always welcome. It is a lovely area and one of our favorite stops. I have been thinking of taking a walk up to the drug store and back but am lazy and keep thinking about it but not doing it....lazy, a sore toe is a good excuse..smile. I have my door open as it is such a lovely warm day, sunshine, breeze and the pink of the flowers is very beautiful, not really pink, has more depth to it, hard to name a color that fits it. The one across the way is definitely red, quite a contrast. I was surprised to see how the little trees have grown, the one over by the hospital building is now over the roof top. Right now one of the birds is sitting up there. As for me, no news, enjoyed my time out with daughter Patricia, we have a favorite ride and a place where the food is hot and tasty. The view is wonderful as you can see all the way over the water to where some of the huge Navy boats are. As I said, I was thinking of going for a walk up to the drug store but keep talking myself out of it; on sore toe and you would think it was a major problem...ha...ha. any excuse will do. So I will go back to my easy chair, check the television and watch a show or two. I have some reading to do but that comes later. Right now I am going for some hot tea...and sip.... I hope you are having a good day ...all day...doing what YOU want to do. Catch up and let me know what you are up to....fun..I bet. Hugs. Jean

Now It's Thursday Morning!!

That is what my little calendar says....a beautiful sunshine morning with a bit of a breeze added and the trees are playing a tune for all to hear....how lovely the trees are when they come alive with the morning breeze... The worker cars are parked in front of my window. There are no blinds up in the hospital wing, sleeping in this morning...The little bird must have a nest in the red bush as it is flying in and out. It went up to the blue bird feeder for breakfast. I have a date with daughter Patricia this morning for breakfast out and that will be good. I am hungry, but then I am always hungry..smile. Four birds out there now...all fighting over the same bush, um...wonder what is up.....I am going to love you and leave you. I hope your day is g r e a t and you have fun and smiles to contend with. Be good, be kind, be YOU!! Hug to all.

Wednesday, May 8, 2019

Now It is Wednesday Morning!!!

My little calendar says it is Wednesday morning. One of the hospital workers is walking by in bright, and I mean bright, red pants; that should wake the patients up this morning...smile. It is quiet out there, cars parked on my side, the little bird on the roof top and the trees are still. There is a lovely rose bush in front of the hospital wing that is bright and beautiful, the only color around, everything else is green and there is a bit of mist in the sky today. A worker just came in driving a brand new white car...a wow....I would hate to have the upkeep of washing the road dust off of it. It is the only white car on the lot, all the others are a blue shade from Navy to lighter shades of blue. A truck just drove out and it was a dark blue so that must be the color that is a favorite. I did see a pretty white car drive in, not many of those. As for me, I am off for a refill of my coffee, heading for the easy chair and feet up for a little while as it is early and the cowboys are on.... I hope your day is a good one. I hope you have places to go and things to do that make you smile. Son John is coming in today so you know i am going to have a good day, a great day, all day...smile. A bright new red car just drove in...a wow....so....off I go, feet up, news on, refill of coffee....another sweet...nah....one is ore than enough. Make your day memorable. Have fun. Be a good neighbor. Be YOU!!! Hugs to all.

I needed a title..ha.,ha. but...have no spare words this morning as I am not awake yet and have only had a sip or two of my coffee.....the sky is a baby blue, trees are still, sun is up and shining on the side of the hospital wing. There is one bird on the roof top sitting quietly watching the worker cars come in and park. All is quiet....silent really. It is Tuesday...wonder what is in store for me today. I have a laundry to do. I have some correspondence to catch up with. But...I am open to an offer to run away...ha.ha now that does sound like more fun. The cowboys are on. The blinds are down in the hospital wing. The trees are still....quiet...silence....early morning....my coffee cup is empty so off I go. Have yourself a good day, all day, doing what you want to do. Be good, be kind, be a beacon of light. Hugs are good. Kind words heal. So......be YOU and have yourself a day you will remember for a long time to come. I'm off, but you already know that...ha, ha. Be good, be kind, be generous sharing you with those you love and like. I am repetition but that isn't all bad. Today is a good day to shine!!! I'll be back....idle threats get me nowhere..ha.ha Hugs to all. You know the tale of the bad penny.....well, I will be back.....meanwhile, be good, be kind, be generous to a fault. Practice hugging until you get it down to perfection. Go, have yourself a day to remember. Coffee cup is empty...well......who drank that....I guess I had better get a refill and wake up the taste buds. Be good, be kind, be gentle, be YOU. Hugs to all.

Monday..Start of a New Week!!!

Good Morning!!! The worker cars are coming in slowly and parking right under my window. There are two new deep red cars this morning, two blue and one white so far. It is silent. The bird is on the roof top and the trees are still. It is quiet,as it should be, much to early to be noisy. One of our men is out bright and early walking his dog. It is one of those long dogs, dachshund, not sure of the spelling, but you know, one of those long dogs...smile. The trees are still, a quiet morning. My coffee is hot and delicious. I had a piece of toast but it was not very tasty. I'd much prefer one of those big fat jelly doughnuts, you know, the ones without calories...ha.ha. fat chance!!! A new day begins. I have no idea what is in store for me today. A quiet Monday is always welcome and I could try to get a small laundry in but will wait to see if the laundry room is busy. I wish we had small laundry machines in our own place. Oh well!!!! Beggars cannot be choosers...you remember that old saying. The little birds are leaving the red busy across the way. I think two have nests in that beautiful roe bush. The big bird is on the roof top and not a leaf is stirring. A quiet morning. The yard sale was a success yesterday as a lot of used items (junk) went out the door. I am laughing as it will not take long to rebuild the junk piles....we will be out looking for treasures and we are sure to find some and bring them home to pile up for the net big yard sale....there is something about a yard sale that makes the world go around...smile. Monday, Monday....all day....house work to do; laundry too; a dusting is in store and a cupboard needs a helping hand... choose a few unnecessary items to throw out and make a bit more room. It is hard to part with anything, after all I shopped hard to find the item in the first place...smile.I really do not need a lot of glasses but then I might have some drop in company and then I would...maybe I should buy some nice paper cups to have on hand ...I am laughing as one of the workers has put her coffee cup on top of her car...wonder if she will remember it....smile!!! Have yourself a good day all day doing what you have to do and what you really do not want to do....once you have the chores done the day is yours. I am of for a coffee refill, feet up and news on....I am not ready to be up and about yet.....my coffee break is much to important...smile. Have yourself a good day doing what you want to do. Be a friend. Be a lover. Be YOU!! Hug to all.

Sunshine Sunday Morning!!!

It is beautiful out my window as there are three white cars parked out there along with one grey and a blue sedan; all shining bright and new; not a junker in the lot. The morning crew is in and busy as there are no shades up in the hospital wing this morning...too early...the sun is shining and the trees are still as I see the little bird on the roof top enjoying the morning sunshine. There is no wind as everything is still. I'll be right back, that first cup of coffee goes down in a hurry...well something has to open the eyes and face a new morning. AAH!!!!!Coffee, coffee....the morning elixir to wake up the body and open the eyes to the morning beauty from the bird on the roof top across the way, to the sunshine on the bright red and pink combination bush that is so bright and beautiful in the morning sunshine. My angel is here on the desk with the message for serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference. I have no new words this morning. I see the little birds flying in and out of their ground nest over on the side of the hospital wing. They have chosen a spot under the rose bush and not to far from the bird feeders....smart birds. Trees are not moving, tree shadows on the side of the building, and there are three white cars and two black parked on my side this morning.All is quiet; no noise at all in house as everyone seems to sleep in. I am an early riser and it never seems to change. I don't have to get up early but I do, a life time habit ...and one that I don't seem to want to break. If I had the early morning energy to go walking, I'd be out the door enjoying the fresh air and sunshine. I do think about it....smile. I have nothing to complain about.....um....well let me think awhile....maybe I'll come up with something....ha.ha.ha. Go...have yourself a good day all day...do some of the things you have been putting off, but... it is Sunday and a day of rest so find restful things to do. Today would be a good day to visit a church of your choice and light a candle or two for the souls that have gone before us. Some had no one to remember them so you have a chance for a good deed or two. I am off to watch tv for awhile, news is on and I will hear what is going on, hope for some good news but that is asking a lot..smile. All I need is some hot coffee in my cup, nestle in my chair, feet up, aah...Sunday morning...is't it wonderful!!!! Hugs to all.

Saturday Morning

Good Morning. The sun is shining. The birds are flying about and the worker cars are parked in front of my window this morning. I can look into the windshields but cannot see much as shadows abide. There is one empty space this morning, unusual. There is a new grey car out there, don't know the make or model but it is a beauty with a window top, light grey and shines in the sunlight. Our Gina just brought in the Menu for the week and we have some good eating coming up this week. There is no way anyone will lose a pound. The little bird is on the roof top across the way hiding behind a roof metal piece; different as it usually sits in front of it right on the tip of the roof top; no breeze out there, nothing stirring and the sky is clear of clouds. There are a couple of new cars in front of my window this morning; one is silver the other a lovely blue a shade I don't know as there is a lot of grey to it making a 'soft' blue. The little birds are having a race across the way ....and I am going to love you and leave you as I am ready for a coffee refill, feet up, news on....and a new Saturday to enjoy. Enjoy your day, all day, doing what you want to do. Take a friend to lunch. Visit someone who is not feeling great. Stop by the church of your choice an light a candle for someone in need, or someone who has gone on and that one candle can end their soul in the door. Be good, be kind be someone who makes a smile touch the lips as soon as you are seen. Make your seconds sparkle...like YOU!! Yes, I am off....well you know that...ha.ha. but you wouldn't have it any other way...ha.ha. I am going to put my shoes on...I am going out that door and walk in the sunshine...what a beautiful Saturday.... enjoy....smile and the world smiles with you; weep and you weep alone....um....something to think about.... Have yourself a wonderful day, all day, doing what you want to do. Be good, be kind, be gentle, be YOU!!! Hug to all.

Friday Morning!!

Good Morning. The sky is almost pure white, no wind at all, trees are still, worker cars parked under my window this morning. I can see the windows but not inside as it is black within...smile. I have a refill of my coffee, nothing good to go with it, but then think of the calories I'm saving...ha.ha...only temporary.... It is Friday and no plans, going to be a quiet day I think. I have a few chores I need to catch up with and then I can go out and about..providing I get an invitation...smile. Right now I have one eye open in spite of the fact I've been sitting here for at least an hour or so. I hope your day is going to be a great one and you get to do all of the things you want to do. Let the have to go for another time...smile. play hooky. My coffee is hot and delicious. There is nothing to go with it..but when I shop I'll stock up and then I can brag as I add an inch or two to my frame. A new car just drove out and it was a deep purple, a shade I have not seen before. I think I like it. Okay, enough, I am off for a refill, blog, enjoy my Friday and maybe puzzle a little today with the ladies. I'd rather be out and about so we will have to wait and see how the day enfolds. Make your day a good one...enjoy it...be good, be kind, be a friend. Hugs to all.

Thursday Evening!!

It has been a good day, all day, no problems to contend with, friends to share time with, all kinds of good food to eat and enjoy; nothing to complain about....gee whiz, how will I be able to stand it.....ha.ha..... A good day, time at the Gallery with friends and family and some interesting visitors. The show this time, as well as all the other times, is very well done. There is so much talent here in Port Orchard. When you visit the Gallery and see the work that is done, you want to paint, and you want an empty canvas to fill in all by yourself. There is so much beauty in nature to capture and so many talented folks to make it come alive. You will not know what you can do until you take a brush in hand and try. I enjoy being at the Gallery. The folks are friendly, helpful, and never think of not sharing and caring. How lucky we are. There were many pictures hung for the recent show and it as such a pleasure and joy to spend time enjoying them. I can tell you I would never want to be on the judging panel as each picture turns out to be a favorite. All in all it was hours well spent. I enjoy the company of the ladies and am lucky to have a daughter , in fact two daughters who have an interest n the gallery and all the works and workers....they have not taken a brush in hand but I am willing to bet that if they did they would come up with a masterpiece all their own. It has been a good day, all day, and we have another day before the weekend takes over. The weather has been perfect. The trees are lovely, full, green as spring green can be. The bushes with blossoms are showing their beauty and the trees are reaching for the sky...wonder how tall these trees will become. I am very lucky to have the view from my window that I do have. I especially enjoy the little bird who sits on the roof across the alley and is patient and quiet for hours. I noticed there are several new cars in the driveway. Right now it is twilight. The sky is turning from a lovely soft blue into a deeper shade, almost has the feeling of a rain storm coming in. All is quiet. Silence. Another day is done. Sleep tight and dream sweet. I am off for a coffee refill, and a 'pinch' of desert although I don't know where I will put it..ha.,,ha. Have beautiful dreams....sleep tight....tomorrow will be a new day to take apart and put back together again...smile. Sweet dreams when you get there. Hugs to all.

Hump Day!!

Good Morning. Now it is hump day, my little calendar says so. It is quiet outside, only three worker cars in so far, it is early, a little white roadster just drove in and parked, cute car. It is quiet out there, pale sky, still trees, no breeze at all. The blinds are down in the hospital wing and the little bird is on the rooftop. A new day begins. But...not before I go for a refill....Can't believe I drank a whole cup of coffee already and in my sleep as I am not awake yet....smile. My little desk calendar says it is Wednesday morning, so mid week, what are we going to do with it? I have no idea, just to early and the brain is still asleep. It is one of those mornings when you want to go back, pull the covers over your head and snooze.....sounds good to me, but I am one of those who wakes up and stays that way....bad habits of a lifetime...blame my kids...ha.ha. Wow the colors of the workers, one lady has a grey sweater, a purple top and a blue slack while the other is walking down eating a banana in a purple jacket. The workers will never get a speeding ticket or a ticket for jay walking as they move like they have hours to get to work..probably wish they were still home in bed. So what can I tell you....yesterday was a good day. The puzzle folks did get quite a few pieces for the big puzzle and it is working up fast. It has been very easy to work so far. All in all, there is noting to complain about and I am not going to go looking for something. I am going for a refill, turn on the tv news and hunker down in my easy chair for another hour or so....no fuss, no rush, a new day and mid week with a way to go for the weekend and fun time or rest time, the choice is yours. Go.....have a good day, all day, doing what YOU like to do best. Make your day memorable. Hugs to all.
