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.

Tuesday Morning!!

Good Morning. It is hazy out there, wants to rain, trees are still, worker cars parked in front of my window this morning. I have a cute little tan one, have no idea what it is but is is different and small and NEW, ha, ha.....I see there is a new light beige wagon out there this morning. The car are line up in front of my window. The workers are in. The blinds are still down in the hospital wing. The sky is soft, no color to speak of. It is silent out there in the parking lot. Come to think of it, it is silent inside as well. I see there is more color int he tree that is in this courtyard,a little gold color is coming out and the tree next to it is all edged in reds and golds...Fall is here. It is Tuesday and I am going to go off and leave you. I am heading for the shower, get dressed and see who is willing and able to to out and about today. I haven't talked with the girls as yet, wonder if they are up yet...ha,ha. probably and wishing they were under the covers. The news is on. My coffee cup is empty....so is my chair..smile. so...without further adieu, I am going to fill my cup, sit awhile longer and check to see who wants to go out and about today.....I hope your day is a good one and you enjoy every minute. Be good...be kind...be YOU. Hugs to all.

Monday, Monday, la, la, la,

Yep, a new Monday. Sunshine, slight breeze not much as the tree leaves are not moving. The tree leaves on the smaller trees are changing quickly and are going to be beautiful this year. The russets are going to take over. It is still out there, worker cars are parked on my side, under my window and the workers have been in bright and early for a new day. It is quiet...silent really. There is no breeze at all so it adds to the silence. The little bird is on the roof top watching the workers come in. It stays there for hours. I wonder where and when it goes for a bite to eat. I have my coffee but no eats yet..um....you wont have my company long..smile. If you haven't taken time to look at the change of color in your trees, do so before it changes as that happens more quickly than we like. The sun creates magic and Fall becomes a favorite time of year. I hope you will put your shoes on, go out for a walk around the block and breathe in some fresh air, enjoy the sights and sounds and stop bye to say hello to a neighbor or two. My neighbor is walking his little long dog and they are ambling along like there is no tomorrow...smile. I am off for a coffee cup refill, feet up, news on, no rush, no fuss....the start of a new day. I hope you have a good day, all day, doing what you love to do best. When you have time, drop a line and let me know how you are doing. If you are vacationing in the Bahamas don't bother...smile. I want to go on a vacation. I want to sit in the sun. I want.....I want.....ha...ha. the power of suggestion ....one word...vacation....and it makes the mind wander. I am off for a refill, a bit of sitting and watching news on tv; a wish for something good but there is never anything good in this house......sulking is good, doesn't accomplish anything but it gives you a slight bit of satisfaction. I am going to love you and leave you for now. Make your day worthwhile Be good, be kind, be gentle, be YOU.....Hugs to all.

A New Saturday all day!!!

It looks like it wants to rain; sky is murky, some blue, more grey than blue, rainy looking but so far not a sign of any. The bird is on the roof top overlooking the traffic coming in. The cars are parked on my side of the driveway and facing my window. I cannot see inside though as it is pitch black. The new color of car this year seems to be a lovely light pearl grey, second would be a vanilla shade almost tan but can't make up its mind. All is quiet...silence....early Saturday's are like that. The color the leaves are almost turned but a few bushes have a way to go. There is a bit of wind this morning as the colorful leaves are moving. If there was a contest for car color the light silver grey would win as there has to be five out there this morning..very pretty I might add. Each model is different and each one is good looking, the car manufacturers have done a good job this year... As for the trees they are still, not a bit of a breeze, a stillness in the air. silence....and the bird is on the roof top taking it all in. As for me, I am going to go and fill my coffee cup, hunker down in my chair for awhile and watch the news on television. I could get dressed. I could do a lot of things but I am lazy....going to hunker down and do a lot of nothing.....it is okay if you join me. smile.......I like company. I am off for a coffee refill, going to look for something to go with it and "there is nothing good in this house" ...ha.ha. bet you are saying it wiht me now. Go..have yourself a good Saturday doing what you love to do best. If you are out on the sales find a treasure and tell me all about it; find two treasures and I'll find a spot for one...ha.ha. well, it is a thought. Go....have yourself a good day, all day....don't forget to have a tasty lunch....isn't Saturday desert day???? Choose a good one...with 'no' calories...ha, ha. if that were the case we would all starve to death. I am off.....I am thinking of you and wish you a day to remember with love and smiles. Be good, be kind, be gentle, be YOU!!! Hugs to all.

Friday, Friday...la, la, la!!!

Good Morning. The sun is shining. The trees are still. The worker cars are parked under my window, one with small pontoons or little boats on top; three very pretty pearl grey cars, two white, one red and one black which gives me a lot to look at..smile. It is a quiet morning. It is a still morning, not a bit of a breeze. The little bird is on the roof top and seems content. No wind, no breeze, nothing moving but I already told you that..smile. I am not awake...you know that...but ..I am working on it. I have had one cup of coffee and and am heading for a refill, feet up, news on, a new day...a Friday all day; how did the weekend get here so fast? I am hungry so I will love you and leave you and head for the kitchen and see what is out there....'there is nothing good in this house' ...ha.ha. well there isn't all because I never leave the good stuff alone. I am off to wake up, have some waking up to do, feed my face and settle down for a bit of news for awhile. It is a Friday all day....a good day...sunshine, birds on the roof top, quiet.....um....a good morning. Hugs to all....Coffee.....coffee.....one eye....open.....wake up.....um, but that bed looks nice and comfortable...smile. Have yourself a good day, all day, doing what you want to do, what you love to do, with those you love and like. Hugs to all.

Cars parked under my window, a new bright red on, good looking but I don't think I'd like red..too bright.Fan on, hot in here....want the weather to change to Fall; balmy days...smile. Hope you and JO had a good day all day. Catch up when you have time. Love you, more every day.

Hello

Just a good night It is a beautiful night night here, warm, sunshine, cars parked under my window, trees all lit up with sunlight that is slowly going down; a quiet evening; cars parked under my window and there is a new red one, I mean a wine red but light, not really heavy shaded. All is quiet out there. I have the fan by the window, door open, it isn't bad in here. It has been one of those overly hot days today; dry; not sure I like it; ha; ha; like i can do something about it. It has been quiet around here, no one moving about and they certainly didn't find there way to my door. I just thought i"d stop in and say good night. Not much going on....shoes off....feet up...aah....poor me...ha.ha. I hope you and Jo are resting and enjoying peace and quiet. Catch up when you have time. Love you, more every day.

Thursday evening

Beautiful out the door, wide open, a soft breeze, cars parked under my windows....a new roadster, different blue, has a bit of grey in it and of course there is a right red one beside it....must have money around here as the cars are all shiny and bright, not a clunker in the bunch...um..think I've said that before. Been hunkered down in my chair....watching tv....door open...hot no breeze and the sun is still very hot and bright. It was a good day today, enjoyed the girls. They are very good to me and I cannot complain...ha.ha. I wouldn't dare!!! Just wanted to wish you and JO a good day all day, a happy snooze when you get there and will wait patiently for a bit of news on what you two are up to. It is quiet around here, hot and still, there are a couple of new cars, one with the top down, good looking, bet it is nice to ride in and a new bright red one which you can see coming..no place for it to hide..smile. I am off for a cup of tea. I have tv on. I have the door open......and I am looking for something 'good'...ha.ha. Give JO a hug and get one back. Love you, more every day. Catch up when you have time. Off I go..feet up...tv on...hot tea and I think there is a 'goodie' still out there..I'll go and see.. smile!! Love you...take good care and catch up soon.

Now It's Thursday morning....

Good Morning. I am down..yep, foot is acting up so that puts a little hitch in my wagon and I cannot plan to go anywhere or do anything that requires walking....poor old feet are just getting older by the day.....and I don't like it. It looks like a beautiful day out there, sun is shining, warm, no breeze, worker cars all parked in front of my window and it is quiet....still...nothing moving, no breeze today so the trees are still. I see some more color in the little tree over by the hospital wing. It is very pretty as it changes from green to russet shades. I have the television to keep me company and some good reading material for a bit later. My shoes are off, and not going out today, hunkered down in my easy chair and a lazy day....um....not sure I like it but not much I can do about it.....I want good feet to take me places...smile. Anew blue small car with a leather top; cute; bet it gives a nice ride. All the worker cars are in front of my window this morning, two grey, two black and one white so far. The trees are still, no wind at all, The bird is on the roof top and enjoying the sunshine. So I am off to sit in my easy chair, watch television and do a lot of nothing...it is suppose to make the foot heal...well we will see...I just don't like it!!!! Boo, hoo......poor me....

Wednesday = Hump Day= Afternoon

Hello. Thinking of you and wondering how you and Jo are doing and what are you doing?? ha...ha. you to know and me to find out...It is a beautiful afternoon, sun is shining and all of the worker cars are under my window. I have been hunkered down with a bad leg, it has been given me fits and seeing the doctor didn't do much for it. I expect miracles but that is not what I get...smile!!!! It is a beautiful day out there, or so I say, but I opened the door and have not stopped sneezing. Hay fever??? The leaves are turning quickly and Fall is in the air, seems too quick to suit me. The cowboys are on..Ponderosa ( can't spell it_ cars coming in and looking to park and there are no open spaces; they will have to go around back and I am sure they don't really like that. It is a beautiful Fall day, colors changing in the trees and I have several right outside my window. I am having a quiet day, giving the leg a chance to rest, this getting older is a challenge when it comes to 'old' bones.. smile. I had you on my mind and wanted to say hello. Give Jo a hug and get one back. Catch up when you have time. Love you, more every day.

Sunday, Sunday, la, la, la.....

Good Morning!!! I am awake, well almost, first cup of coffee disappeared quickly so off for a refill...be right back.... and I found a nice size piece of pizza...yum. just what I need to wake the taste buds up...smile.' The trees are still this morning. Sun is on the building making shadows of the tall bushes and one small tree. The bird feeders are reflected in the window and the blinds are closed tightly. Sunday morning, a good sleep in time....smile. There are four new white cars in front of my big window this morning. White must be in demand. The brown truck with all the drawings on it looks like it is permanent, all marked up, even the roof top. Some children had a ball with colored crayons or chalk. It is Sunday morning, clear, sunshine, a little breeze as the tree leaves are moving a tiny bit. The birds must have been hungry as the feeders are almost empty...but I am full to the brim as I devoured left over pizza; yeah....you know it taste even better the next morning..smile. I am off to put my feet up, watch some tv for awhile and then I'll think about a shower and dressing for a new day. I am feeling lazy this morning, do not want to move fast, slow pace is always better this time of day...ha.ha. as if I could get this body to move any faster. I hope you day is a good one. I hope you get to do what you want to do. I hope you entertain family and friends and enjoy the sunshine. It looks like a beautiful day out there. I am off for a refill...yes, I did empty the coffee cup...hot, delicious and in need of just a little more... Have yourself a good day, a fun day, a day shared with those you love and like. Be good, be kind, be gentle, be YOU!!! Hugs to all.

Saturday, all day!!!

Good Morning. I have been up for hours, been looking out the window at the still trees, not a bit of a breeze out there this morning. The sun is shining on the roof top and the little bird is sitting on the edge. The worker cars are parked on my side but not as many as a week day; Saturday crew must be smaller in the early morning and build as the day goes on. Right now silence. Right now nothing moving. Right now is a good time for a coffee cup refill...smile...so you know where I am headed. Be right back!!! I had unplugged the pot so the coffee is cold so I will wait awhile and reheat it. Meanwhile I will stop and visit and find out what you are up to today. I have no plans as yet. I may go off with Pat junking a bit later but it all depends on what her plans are for today. She is so good about taking me out and about, how lucky I am to have my girls close by. The trees are still, the sun is shining, it is Saturday all day and no plans made. How about you??? What are you up to today? I hope you have a fun day and take time to send me a note telling me all about it. I am going off to put my shoes on...shoes...yuck.....I'm all for going bare foot...ha.ha. well, you can't beat comfort!! I hope your day is a fun one. I hope you enjoy today. I hope you find places to go, things to do, folks to love and have a problem wiping that smile off your face.....so go....be good, be kind, be loving....be YOU!!! Hugs to all.

Friday, July 19, 2019

It's Friday!!!

Good Morning!!! I am awake, well almost, one eye open, cloudy out my window, worker cars parked under my window this morning, new silver one, quite a beauty. The birds are flying in and out of the tree across the way and the sky is murky, not sure if we are due for a little rain today.I have one eye open, coffee is hot and tasty and that should help wake me up. The little bird is out there on the rooftop overseeing the worker cars as they come in.The worker cars are here under my window and some are facing out, some facing in, not a dusty one in the aisle...smile. Off for a refill. aah,,,,how often I thank God for the coffee bean. Well...what is in store for me today...have no idea....not planning anything ...yet....ha.ha. well when I wake up I will think of something I want to do but right now I a content to sip my coffee an talk with you. The sky is milky this morning, not a branch moving, looks like it wants to rain and it may have as the macadam looks wet out there this morning. All is silent, not a murmur, no noise of any kind. Two of the shades are up and open in the hospital wing and all the others are closed tight. Some folks sleep in an then there are 'us'...ha.ha. It is Friday all day; um....wonder what it hold for us. Maybe, just maybe we will find some fun things to do....well it wont be from lack of trying...smile. Off I go, feet up, tv on for awhile....hot coffee to sip but nothing good to go with it. I don't leave the good stuff for another sitting..ha.ha. Toast and jelly isn't all bad...but...it isn't as tasty as the real "sweet" stuff. You just cannot beat a big fat sugar coated jelly doughnut no matter how hard you try. So....have a good day doing what you want to do today. Enjoy yourself and make a friend or two happy that you are in their lives. Don't forget to smile...be calm...be good....be YOU. Hugs to all. Coffee,,,,coffee....aah!!!!

Thursday, July 18, 2019

A New Morning!!

It is hazy in the sky, looks like it wants to rain. The trees are still, not a bit of a breeze this morning The bird is on the roof top and the blinds are down in all but one of the hospital windows. It is quiet..silent really, no noise of any kind. The worker cars under my window are parked facing the street, that is all but one, and there is always one to want to be different..smile. Early morning silence; the little birds are flying in and out of their special space under one of the hospital windows. There is a tiny round bush that they favor and that is because the bird feeders are hanging just above it. You know the crumbs fall and they fall right into the bush so they know where to go for some extra food. It is early, quiet, and one of the smaller trees is showing a change of color in the leaves. Fall will be in full bloom before we know it. The sun is making shadows on the side of the hospital wing. One small tree is showing signs of the leaves changing colors, sign of an early Fall and it seems to have come much too soon. Oh well....time flies when you are having fun.... My coffee cup is empty. The news is coming on so it is time for me to find my easy chair, feet up on the hassock, hot coffee to sip and a new day begins. I hope you find places to go, things to do, folks to love and share time with. Be good, be kind...and you will find that your day will be all you want it to be. I am off...well you already know that...smile. I want a refill, feet up, news on, and let the new day unfold slowly and quietly...smile. Go....make your today special...like YOU!!! Hugs to all.

Wednesday, July 17, 2019

Now It Is Wednesday Evening!!!!

Hello. The day flies bye, weather is strange, wants to storm, rain, rage, but does nothing but cloud and hide the blue of the sky. The worker cars are parked under 'my' window and there is a new grey truck, good looking an I bet it cost plenty. There is a beige truck with blue trim, a red sedan, a grey wagon an the bird is on the roof top and has been there all day...smile. Some things never change. I was off and away with Christine watching Hallmark Movies and enjoying them. It was a down day, not really a bad weather day just a cloudy one and a quiet one. I enjoyed the television movies and the chance to get a few things done for Chris with some left over Gallery stuff. There is always something to do...smile. I came home to an empty refrigerator, forgot I had used up all that was there and have to shop. I made do with some soup and crackers, wasn't all that hungry anyway....well if you put a piece of pie or a cake in front of me I would have devoured it..smile. I had a good day. It is good to have the shoes off, quiet, tv on and my easy chair waiting for me. I did get to the doctor who looked at the foot, gave it a pat and sent me on my way...there really is nothing he can do unless I went for a major surgery of some kind which I don't think I'd do. It isn't all bad, just gives me the know how on what a leg and a foot is all about...have had them for years so I think I'll be patient and let them live their lifetime out...smile. So I am in...I have my shoes off...tv on and it has closed down a couple of times , seems there is some problem around, not sure what, but at the moment it is okay again. The bird is on the roof top. The trees are still. The sky is light grey, almost cloudy, still...only three cars on the lot and one is plastered with pictures and writing, looks awful, some kind of paint used that does not wipe off. Even the windows are 'chalked'; bet the owner is upset. So...that is my hello for today...I hope your day was a good one, filled with love and fun. I hope you shared you with those you love and like. Catch up when you have some time. Sleep sweet when you get there. Hugs to all.

A New Tuesday

Good Morning!!! I am awake....ha,ha..that's my story and I'm stuck with it....probably be another half hour before the light goes on...ha.ha. well, I am up..that is a beginning. I am almost awake...but that will take a few more sips of my hot coffee...a new day...a Tuesday all day....the little bird is on the roof top across the tarmac; the worker cars are parked under my window; there are three black and one white and a olive shade of truck out there right now. Some folks have the night shift or very early morning one. The blinds are down in the hospital building. The bird feeders are full to the brim and not a bird in sight...oops, I take that back there is one sitting on the edge of the roof overlooking those that are coming in to work for the day. I am enjoying my hot coffee which should wake me up a little more. The prayer of serenity plaque is looking at me so let's do it....."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." That should get us off to a decent start. It is quiet, trees still, sky is light, a faded blue. The worker cars are lined up under my window, facing in, only one light grey, one white and the rest are all black or dark blue. The trees are still, one bush blossomed out with light green flowers. I am laughing as I am thinking you could care less as you have one eye open and heading for the hot coffee or tea this morning. It still amazes me to look out my window and see and feel the stillness of early morning. I will go away and let you snooze a bit more. I am off for a refill, some tv and the start of a new day.''Be good, be kind, be gentle, be loving.....have yourself a day to remember.

Monday, July 15, 2019

Monday Morning.........

Monday, Monday, la, la, la.....about five thirty a.m. or six, didn't take time to look at the clock; if I did, I'd probably go back to bed...smile. Coffee is hot and tasty, a wake upper for sure. Tasty, hot, black....um....... The little bird is on the roof top across the way. The worker cars are parked over on this side so they are under my window. I have three black and two silver, although one is more white than silver. All shined up and no place to go...smile. The sky is iffy as there are a few dark clouds floating around up there. The trees are still. Not a sound. The little bird is on the roof top and one young lady is carrying her morning latte in hand, as she walks up to the door for a new day at work. I have to laugh as some are still dressing as they walk up to the entrance. There is a brand new white coupe out there this morning; good looking; bet it rides well. I almost didn't see it as it seems low. A red car is riding up and down looking for a space up front but will have to go around back as the spaces are all filled this morning. It is the case of the early bird gets the worm and the early drivers get the best spots. All in all it is silent, bird feeders are full, one bird on the roof top and not a tree leaf moving. So, a new day begins and we have yet to find out what it has in store for us. I am off for a refill, put the news on, feet up and sit awhile...that way I am sure to wake up...smile. I hope your day is going to be special, like you. Be good, be caring, be wise, be someone who cares. My neighbor is out walking his little 'long' dog, a love story in motion. All the parking spots are filled here in the front so the incoming workers are having to go around to the back to find a spot. The trees are silent, no breeze at all an the sky is cloudy, a little light blue, but mostly a darker blue that looks like it wants to rain. Morning silence..... I am off for a refill, put some news on, feet up for awhile and then the new day begins. I hope you have a good day and do some of the things you want to do, and, of course, some of the things you have to do. Be good, be kind, be generous to a fault and work hard at making those you love and like a little happier today..all because of YOU.... At this moment all i quiet....a new day begins.....

A New Sunday Morning!!

The sun is shining on the bushes and trees across the way from me. The golden leaves on one bush tells me the season is changing quickly and Fall is in the air. The bird feeders look empty but someone will fill the before the morning is over. The shades are still down in the hospital wing and all of the worker cars are parked under my window. There is silence this morning; no foot traffic as those who are on duty are already in and working. Three of the windows have shades drawn so some folks like to sleep in. A habit I never acquired. Pa was one of those up at five a.m., out the door to work at six and the neighbors set their clocks by him. Some memories stay in the mind forever and that is not bad at all..smile. The bird is on the roof top across the way. The sun is shining on the trees and there is no wind. There are two birds at the bird feeder and when they light upon it the swinging goes along with it and they feed and ride at the same time. I am laughing, my entertainment for the early morning. We have a beautiful sunshine morning; quiet; worker cars are parked under my window and I can see reflections in the car windows. Only one van type backed in, the others are all faced in. The girls have gone off to Costco. I was not invited and would like to have gone to walk the aisles and see what needed to go into the basket. They will find a few things I said I needed and a few extra special treats I didn't ask for but will relish...smile. fattening stuff...you know what that is....the good stuff...the sweet stuff...smile.....think it is called 'rounding materials' ha..ha. So, the sun is shining, the wind is asleep and the worker cars are silent It is Sunday, the quiet day of the week, and one we look forward to with a smile. It gives us time to relax, fill an easy chair and watch a show or two. A day of rest and we can all use one of those. I hope your day is a fun one. I hope you share you with those you love and like... It is okay to treat someone you love with not only goodies but kind and loving words that should be said at least once a day. Remember that song...."Three Little Words" .....So reach out, a hug or two, and whisper an "I love you" to those you not only love but like. I am off for a little television, too early for our lunch time...I'm laughing as it is breakfast time and it has not changed ...maybe I'll refill the coffee cup and see if there is a sweet crumb left out there. I doubt it, sweet stuff just does not have shelf life around here. Make your today a good one. Be loving. Be kind. Be YOU!!! Hugs to all.

Saturday Morning

Good Morning. Coffee....aah!!! I am sitting here, not awake yet, but working on it, and....it is quiet, worker cars under my window and all is still. There is blue in the sky and white clouds and nothing moving at all. The little bird is on the roof top and one of the workers is heading for her car and home after working all night. It is a new Saturday morning, um....wonder what is in store for us today....grocery shopping for one thing as there is nothing 'good' in this house..I just looked an the cupboards are bare...bread for toast but that is not what I am looking for....smile..... I had to laugh as two of the lady workers just passed each other and neither awake enough to say good morning...smile. Someone has a new silver car, stillness, silence, soft blue in the sky, clouds, no wind as the tree tops are still . One of the lady workers is walking up towards the front door and pulling herself together. A little tug here and there and all set for the day. My coffee cup is empty, the tv is on and talk of rain, wonder if it is here or over in La. that he is talking about as there is a huge storm there. So....I wish you a good, if not a great, Saturday...all day...doing what you want to do and a little of what you have to do....smile. Off for a refill, feet up, news on, wake up time...slow and easy...smile......go, have yourself a day to remember. Hugs to all.

Still Friday Morning!!!

Hello again. I am sitting here at the computer looking out the window at the parked cars in front of my area...four fit the window, black and white, ha.ha I have a choice....think the white wagon has possibilities but then I don't drive anymore so it will just have to sit there. There is nothing new. I am waiting to go up to lunch. I will see the girls after lunch as I think we are at the Gallery today and I get to help a little...experience kitchen duties..ha.ha. Just wanted to say hello. I hope you and Jo have some fun today doing what you like to do best. Catch up when you have time.

It is Friday Morning!!!

Good morning. I have one eye open....only half my coffee gone....I am too waking up...be patient......smile. The worker cars are parked under my window this morning; two white, two grey, two black can't see the rest of them. The window blinds are still closed in the hospital wing. The bird is on the roof top overlooking the cars as they come in and out. The trees are still, not a bit of breeze and all is silent.....no noise of any kind at the moment. A new Friday morning. I am awake...well almost....I am off to refill the coffee cup and open the other eye...be back in a minute. Friday morning, quiet, all is still. I am not awake but working on it. Coffee...coffee...hot and black and oh so tasty. My little prayer block is here: "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 I should add courage not to eat a cookie this time of the morning...yuck!! I have one eye open, tv on, cowboys...yippee .....off I go...YOU have a good day ...all day...doing what you want to do...not have to do..smile. Be sure you add a good deed or two and make sure you give out a hug or two and start someone you know and love off to a good start. Be good, be kind, be gentle be YOU!!! Hugs to all.

Thursday All Day!!!

Good Morning. It is quiet, no breeze out there at all, the trees are still, the bird is on the roof top and not moving, a new day...How are you this morning? I hope bight eyed and bushy tailed as the old adage goes...smile. It is grey out there this morning. The worker cars are parked in front of my window this morning. I am smiling, as I have a red, white and very dark blue, a brown truck and a black car, all parked for the day. One young worker is going in carrying her morning drink and moving at a good pace. The sky seems dull this morning, wonder if we are in for some rain today....probably could use some. As for me, I have one eye open, my coffee cup is empty so I am off for a refill, feet up, news on, and a new day is about to start. I wish you a good day, all day, doing what you want to do to the best of your ability..smile. Go...have yourself a day to remember. I am off for a refill of hot coffee, feet up, news on....aah....a new day....smile!!!! Catch up when you have some time. Be good, be kind, be YOU!!! Hugs to all.

Now It's Wednesday Morning!!!

Smile, hump day, looks overcast out there, the little bird is on the roof top, the worker cars are parked under my window and silence....not a leaf stirring, nothing moving at the moment and the full bird feeders are just hanging, not a bird in sight...well, I take that back, the big bird is on the roof top watching the workers come in and park. It is quiet...silence....shades down. I am almost awake....one eye open....coffee...aah; hot and black....tasty.....a wake up drink. You have heard all my news...um, what news??? ha, ha...there just isn't anything new and different this morning. One eye open, a wish to go off and see some sights and enjoy time away but that remains to be seen as I have no idea what the girls have in mind for the day. I am sure they have things in mind, places to go and will catch up with me later. How lucky I am to have them and am thankful for all they do. Right now silence inside and out. The sky is a pumice color, like a time before the clouds let loose. No clouds, just a huge milky looking sky and all is quiet. It is always interesting to see the difference in the cars and trucks parked out there. The pay scale must be good as there is not a junker in the lot. The new shade in the cars seems to be a light beige, almost white, but not quite. A new day, hopefully a full and busy day for all. I am off to enjoy my coffee, feet up, tv on, no rush, no fuss, no rushing around ...retired until I have to move...smile. I wish you a good day, a healthy day, a day to make memories. I hope that you share you with those you love and like. Be good, be kind, be gentle, be YOU. Catch up when you have time to share. Hugs to all.

A new Tuesday

Good Morning. The workers are coming in slowly, no rush in their step...ha.ha. I bet they would like to be home in bed snoozing away. It is clear out there this morning, light sky, hardly any color to it. The trees are still...nothing moving even the little bird is sitting on the edge of the roof quietly...no movement at all. I am awake...well I think I am....I have had one cup of coffee but it takes another to do the trick..smile. The cars are under my window, have two silver ones this morning..new...different...very nice. I think the tree, the tiny one in front of the building, is still. It is changing color and the leaves on the outer edges are changing color slowly. The bush, on the other hand, is bright and yellow begging to be noticed. All n all there is not wind as the bird feeders are still. The blinds are down in a couple of rooms so folks are not in a hurry to wake up and start a new day. So I have no new news. I did not do anything exciting yesterday and it is much too early to even think about doing anything this morning. I'm awake...I'm awake...ha..ha....well that remains to be seen. I hope your day is special, like you....go....have a good one doing what you want to do...not have to do...smile. Have a little fun today it is Tuesday all day and the sky is soft, no storm clouds that I can see from here. BE good, be kind, be gentle...be YOU.....Make today a day to remember with pride and love. Be good, be careful, be magnanimous, be YOU!!! Hugs to all.

A Monday Afternoon

Hello. I have been sitting here in the window for a good hour or two just looking out at the trees, the clouds, the sky, the parked cars, the hospital windows and enjoying a summer day of sunshine and huge floating clouds, some with a bit of darkness around the edges in want of dropping a bit of moisture. We have just been gifted a Popsicle, which they do on warm summer days, a nice treat. I had a bite and put the rest in the freezer for later, not in the mood for it right now. I am enjoying the quiet, the open window shades the still trees, the hospital wing with its shades up and a little bird on the roof top watching the cars come in and out. I have been here for a good hour or two, doing a lot of nothing; enjoying the stillness, the quiet, the pictures in the clouds and silence. I really am waiting for time to pass as Christine is coming to pick me up and we are going out for a good old juicy hamburger. She has been working at the Gallery all day. I did offer to help but that was not what she had in mind today and that is okay as she needs her time too. So, I hope you and Jo had a good day today. I hope you got to do what you wanted to do and had fun doing it. I am off to close up and get ready to put my shoes on.....ha, ha...all good things have to come to an end..... I am looking forward to a hamburger with pickle. I'd share but you are not here. Give Jo a hug and get one back. Catch up when you have some time. love you, more every day. Mom

A NEW Monday Mornng!!!!

A new week begins, wonder what it holds....some good I hope. The sky is a pumice color this morning, trees still, not a bit of a breeze out there. The cars are parked on my side so I can look into the windows but there is nothing to see...smile. The little bird is sitting up on the roof top and at this moment there is silence. My coffee cup is empty so I am off for a refill and open the other eye...be right back. AAH, coffee, coffee......a good thing it is a good buy and available...smile. My first cup always reminds me of Pa, early morning, a big mug of hot coffee and a hug to start the day.... It looks like it wants to rain, wonder if there is any in the forecast; maybe it already has as the macadam looks wet. It is silent...not even a tree leaf is moving. A new silver car out there this morning and it shines as the other cars are all dark blue or black. You get a break this morning as I have no new news. A Monday morning, start of a new week and places to go, things to do, as the week progresses. I hope your week is a busy one to your liking. I hope you get to do the things you want to do and go to the places you have in mind. The secret of success is to enjoy one day as it comes and make it play out the way you want it to. Takes thought, words, deeds but you can do it. My cup is empty, the tv is on and I show is in progress so that has to go and some news is in order. I hope your day find you cool, calm and collected, as the old adage goes....make it one you will remember for some time to come. Be a friend, be a lover, be YOU!!! I'll be back...ha..ha...just what you want to hear. Be good, be kind, be gentle, be YOU!!! Hugs to all.

Now It is Saturday Morning!!!

Good Morning!! It looks like there are clouds up in our skies this morning and the trees are still, not a breath of air moving The bird is on the roof top across the way; the worker cars are parked in front of my window this morning and at the moment, all is quiet...silence...a nice sound when you have only one eye open..smile!! It is Saturday. I wonder what is in store for us today. I have no plans, as yet, but I am sure I will think of things to do, places to go and folks to share time with. Some one worker has a new car, a dove grey, small, compact with a bright sticker, I cannot read, in the rear window. All is silence. The little bird is looking around and I see a lot more yellow on the bush across the way this morning. There is a bit of red in the leaves of the tree and the bird feeders are all but empty.Early signs of Fall but we have a long way to go yet. It is only July and we have the heat of August yet to come and then Fall, how fast the seasons go. I would love to take time out to just visit but I have no new news, nothing tell shout about as I have already told you all my tales. I am going to refill my coffee cup, find my way to my easy chair, turn on the television and stay put for awhile. Make your today a good one and do not forget the one good deed you want to do today....make someone smile. Catch up and let me know how you are, what you are up to, and take time to celebrate YOU today. Coffee......coffee, hot and delicious....off for a refill, feet up, news on, then Saturday cowboys....Yipee!!! ha..ha. there is nothing I know of that says you cannot join me.....smile!!!! Be good, be kind, be gentle, be the light that shines in someones eye....be generous with your hugs....be kind with your words.....smile with your eyes and have yourself a day to remember. Hugs to all.

And The Fourth of July Goes Off and Away for another year!!!

There is someone out in the court yard shooting off some fire crackers. It is almost time for them to give it up...or so I think....It has been a good Fourth of July and I cannot complain about enjoying one more...fire crackers are not my favorite but as an old friend would say "it is what it is"...and with that you can't do much about it..smile. It is after ten p.m. so those who are firing off some fire crackers should be about ready to call it quits....it is late and they have some of those lady fingers that make a lot of noise all at once...smile. I hope you enjoyed your holiday and had fun as well as good 'eats'; sleep sweet and enjoy a good sleep when you get there. Hugs to all.

Good Morning!!!

Hello. I have one eye open....do you? It is hazy out there, sky is grey blue, light, stormy looking but so far the roads are dry. The worker cars are parked under my window and there is one beige colored one that has scribbles on it and very few spots are clear...some children had a ball and it looks like it may be there for some time, wonder if it is paint or a chalk, whatever it is, it looks like it wants to stay right there. The sky is soft, looks a bit like it wants to storm but there is no breeze, bird on the roof top, quiet, silence really.One worker is headed for her car, the end of her shift, and she is probably smiling all the way to her car. As for me, I have one eye open. I have an empty coffee cup so you know where I am going....be right back. I am not awake so be patient with me...smile. We have a new Thursday to use up. I have no special plans. So, I am off to settle down in my chair and watch television for awhile. I am in no rush to start my day but will take a short walk to the kitchen and see if there is 'anything good in this house'; probably not; the someone who lives here has a very good appetite. So....go....have yourself a good day, all day, doing what YOU want to do. Thursday......a good day to shop...a good day to browse...a good day to do what you want to do, not have to do......so choose wisely, enjoy today and those folks you choose to share your time with. Be good, be kind, be cheerful, be strong and helpful as only you can be. I'm off for a refill, to blog....and start my new day.....after I hunker down for a while longer and watch television and maybe, just maybe, snooze a little longer. yawn!!!! yawn!!! Hugs to all....I'll be back.

Still Wednesday evening..smile.

Been watching tv, feet up, drinking hot coffee, had desert and am sorry, sometimes it does not hit the spot....smile. Not going to keep you, just clearing up the computer and quitting for today. It is silent around here, lots of clouds in the sky; silent; still; not a bit of a breeze so nothing is moving at all. The cars are parked under my window tonight, only six of them so the work crew is lighter. All is quiet....I'm off to watch tv some more and drink some hot coffee....and there is nothing good in this house....ha.ha. Sleep tight; give Jo a hug and get one back. Catch up and let me know what you are doing for the Fourth. I have given u holidays..smile. Love you, more every day. Sweet dreams when you get there. Love you, more every day.

Wednesday evening

I walked up to the corner and back; nice out there, not a lot of traffic and the trees are still, no wind of any kind.I am having some chicken soup here at the desk so if I spot you will know what it is...ha.ha. It is starting to rain, wow, had no idea it wanted to. I hope we have a good storm then. I haven't seen the girls, guess they found 'other fish to fry' as the old adage goes..smile. I met some nice folks on the sidewalk going and coming. Everyone is friendly. Stop and drop a line or two. Hope you and JO found something fun to do today and made good use of your Wednesday....feels more like Sunday....anyway it is about over and tomorrow will be a new day. I had some travel brochures to look at so spent the afternoon wishful thinking...smile. I'd like to do one more trip overseas but I am not sure I am going to be u to it as I really am slowing down....Now I don't admit that to everyone so be careful who you share my word with..ha.ha. I love you. I hope you and Jo are having a fun day. Tomorrow is the Fourth, wonder what you two will be doing...shooting off any fire crackers? I'm off to wash my dishes, find a desert but I doubt there is one, someone eats all that good stuff fast....can't imagine who. Give JO a hug and get one back. Catch up when you have time. love you, more every day.

Good Morning!!

Hello. It is cloudy this morning, sky is more light grey than blue. Bird on the roof top...cars parked under my window and all is silent. Just wanted to say good morning. Off to have some hot coffee, open the other eye and check the news. Wednesday, all day...um....lets make it a good one..smile. love you...give Jo a hug and get one back. Hope your day is a good one and you get to do all the fun things you like to do...all work and no play...ha.ha. be good to you...love you, more every day.

Tuesday, July 2, 2019

Hello

It is that time of night...goodnight...hope you had a good day, all day, and have a good sleep when you get there. Give Jo a hug and get one back. I am off to read a bit and call it a day. Love you, more every day. Catch up when you have some time.

It is Tuesday evening!!!

Hello. It wants to rain but so far it has not; don't know what it is waiting for...think there was a drizzle a little while ago but not for long; maybe we will have more before the night is over and we can always use some..smile. How are you? How is Jo? What have you two been up to today? i had a quiet day, nothing to complain about..ha.ha. well complaining is part of what keeps a senior citizen in motion...ha.ha. and you wondered how I got to move about so.... Nothing new. Just wanted to stop in and say hello. It wants to send the little bird off the roof top but so far nothing moves it...doesn't seem to mind a drizzle at all. The cars are parked in front of my window. There is a carmel colored one..light beige...almost a silver shade but has more depth. I wonder who makes up all those car colors; a big job and a tough one. There are four black and one light brown or tan out there right now....night crew is on. Nothing new. Didn't go anywhere, didn't do anything special, the usual tv and some puzzle time. We have not been getting many puzzle pieces; a tough one and that is good but frustrating. That was my day. Hope you and Jo had a good day doing what you love to do best. Catch up when you have time. Give Jo a hug and get one back. I'm off to watch a tv show....it did rain a little as the tarmac is wet. I'd love to see it pour buckets...smile. Have a good night, a good snooze and take good care; love you, give Jo a hug and get one back. Catch up. Sweet dreams when you get there.

Monday evening

Hello. It is quiet out there, no movement in the trees, worker cars parked under my window. Quiet...still....nothing moving.....hot....weather is changing fast this year. New white car out there, a new blue one and a new grey one, to say nothing of a lovely red one; money here, not a junker in the bunch. trees are still bird is on the roof top and my tea is good....the girls are hunkered down..smile. I took a walk down the hall way for exercise. I am bored....smile. well, there is nothing special I want to do or have to do..... so I can sulk...ha.ha. off to finish my tea...watch tv and there is a tiny bug on the screen; so tiny you can hardly see it. Hope you and JO are content and doing what you want to do. I am of to watch some tv.....feet up....quiet. Know I love you; give JO a hug and get one back. Catch up. bye for now

Monday

Silence, not a bit of a breeze, cars parked on my side, bird on the fence and on the roof top; a new Monday morning....I'm awake....well, not really, but working on it. Sunshine, bird on the roof top, trees still, cars parked outside my window and there are two brand new ones...both grey in color as well as a new blue one and I mean blue...a color all its own...almost purple in shade , different. Two black, two grey, one bright red....workers are in and busy..smile. The sun is shining brightly, the trees are showing the fall colors and all is very quiet around here. I had a chair snooze, cowboys on, no rush, no fuss, a new day to put together if and when I am motivated to wake up...lazy this morning. More fun watching the tiny bird on the fence and the big one on the roof top who hasn't moved in some time. All is still...all is quiet...and a new day is on its way. So off to shower and dress. Not sure if there are any plans for today. I will have to check with my girls and see what they are up to. I think a few groceries are in order as there is 'nothing good in this house' ...ha.ha....where have you heard that before? I see a brand new deep blue car in the lot this morning. Two black, two grey, and a bright red one....two cars have stuff in the windows, but others are all clear. So...off I go to get showered and dressed for the day. One never knows when an invitation could be extended....or not..smile. I hope your day is a good one and you get to do all of the things you want to do. Be good, be kind, be gentle, be YOU!!! Hugs to all.

Good Monday Morning!!!

Good Morning. I have one eye open, coffee hot and black, aah!!!! trees are still a bit of sunshine on the leaves and some Fall colors beginning to show. A few worker cars parked and the blinds are still down in the hospital wing. All is quiet...silent really. Sunshine looks pretty on the hospital wing and the red bird is showing off in the sunlight. Only a few cars out there on the lot ..but that will change. The bird feeders are empty across the way and need a refill. All is silent. As for me....I have one eye open, coffee is hot and tasty....aah!!!! A new day, wonder what is in store for us...a new week beginning.....I am hoping for a good one, a busy one, a week of being busy and productive...well at a slower pace...smile. Some one is coming in with a brand new blue car, a rich blue, very different and very nice looking. There are three other cars parked and all are black. Sunlight on the tree tops looks very pretty this morning. All is still, not a bit of a breeze...if I repeat myself blame it on not being fully awake, but I a working on it. I hope your day is a good one and you get to do all of the things that you want to do. I hope you are feeling great and ready for your new day. As for me, I am almost awake....almost counts....I have an empty coffee cup so off I go for a refill, hunker down in my easy chair, feet up on the hassock, news on and a new day begins. I hope you find things to do, places to go, friends to share time with and enjoy your new Monday....the start of a new week....seems they come and go very quickly any more....Off to fill my coffee cup, hunker in my easy chair, news on and feet up.....a good start for a new Monday..smile. Have yourself a good day all day doing what you want to do. Be good, be kind, be gentle, be YOU!!! Hugs to all.
