Sunday Morning Bright and Beautiful!!

I am looking at the tall trees over the roof top of the hospital wing which is across the street from my window.  The shades are drawn, it is much to early to get up and move on a Sunday  morning....and then there are us...smile.   A beautiful new silver car is parking in front of my window...must be brand new...a beauty....no breeze, nothing but russet leaves on the tall trees, Fall is coming up fast.  I marvel at how fast the seasons change.    I smile as I watch the hospital workers walking slowly into the hospital building;  nine out of ten carry some kind of a gadget they cannot seem to do without;  wonder who is awake to talk to them at this time of day.   Some have their morning libation in hand, sipping and walking...don't miss a beat as they wake up on their way in the door.  They must have coffee pots on inside as I see some carrying something edible as they walk along.   If it was me, I'd probably have the 'goody' eaten before I got to the door....nothing bashful about my appetite.  My cup is empty....that will never do...I'll be back.

Aah!!!!  Hot, black, coffee, filled cup to the brim and if I am careful I do not lose a drop.   Aah...the morning libation what would we do without it?   I don't want to find out.   I am looking out my big picture window at the workers cars all parked neat and tidy, only one parked a bit further away from another, the others seem to have their distance down pat and leave plenty of room to open the car doors wide.   There are four cars parked out there already, a new Sunday morning and a day to celebrate in a church of your choice.    I would love to have lots of new news to share but it is a quiet time and I have no ramblings to share. 
So I am going to love you and leave you to enjoy your Sunday;  say a prayer for me.  Be good, be kind, be YOU!!!  Hugs to all.

Saturday

So many folks wait for Saturday morning to roll over in bed, ha.ha.   Well, some of us get up and get going, bad habits die hard.   I wonder what it would be like to sleep in;  don't think I'd like it as I have a lifetime habit of getting up along with the birds and the bees.   The old folks used to think that anyone that slept past the wee hour of five a.m. was lazy.....wonder where that idea came from.  Pa was up, out the door by five a.m., a long walk up the street, over the hill and he opened the door to Gibbs Florist Company and started his day with all the flowers and bushes.  He had the gnarled hands from  a lifetime of working in the soil;  there was not one flower he didn't love and make blossom and grow.   I am thinking, as I sit here looking out of the big widow at huge trees swaying in the breeze of an early morning almost white sky, such a pale blue, quiet,the shades down in the hospital wing, cars all parked in 'my' side of thee road today.  I have four light cars parked in front of my window and a dark purple one, looks more Navy than purple.   Some words bare repeating and my early morning routine is just that....smile.

Coffee is gone, off for a refill, put on the television and find out what the news caster has to say about the goings on in the night.   We have a new Saturday morning to make good use of....a bit of news, more hot coffee, feet up on the hassock, rump huddled in the big chair.....aah.....life is good.

Go....have yourself a good Saturday doing what YOU love to do best.   Be kind...that is important.....Be loving ... and that is even more important....be YOU and share YOU with those you love and like.    Today is a day for good deeds.  I am sure you can come up with one or two.   Remember YOU make someone's day special.  Be all YOU can be!!!  Go!!!!  Be YOU!!!!  Hugs to all.

A New Friday morning!!!

This might be called "puling up a new day"...smile!!

Good Morning.  The sun is shining on the tree tops and the clouds are picturesque, still, fluffy, designs of all kinds and a sight to see as the sun envelops the tree tops in a stillness that would be difficult to describe.  Shades are drawn in the hospital wing;   cars are parked on 'my' side of the road this morning and quiet prevails.  The start of a lovely Friday and the mundane wash day for me.    I notice a bit more change of color in the tree tops as we head for a change of season which is about to greet us sooner than we anticipated.   The seasons change rapidly and that word 'holiday' comes to mind....ha,ha...you are not ready for such a word, neither am I.

The view from my window is really lovely this morning as the sky is like a washboard with streaks of baby blue showing through the clouds so fluffy and white.   The imagination can run rampant as there are all kinds of images, very beautiful.

I am off for a refill of hot coffee, put the television on and find out what transpired in the night.   Take time out for YOU today an do some one thing you have been wanting to do but have been to busy to get to it.....Friday....all day...go....give yourself a treat for surviving a hard week of work and struggle....which makes us stronger  ...or so the old timers used to say.....GO!!!  Be YOU....Be good, be kind, be a friend today and accomplish 'great' things...smile!!!

Hugs to all.

A New Thursday Morning!!

Roll out a new day, the day after the Fourth of July holiday and the noise is gone, the sky is full of beautiful clouds, some trimmed in white with the inner grey and patches of blue that make pictures of their very own.  The blinds are still drawn in the hospital wing, only one Navy blue car in the parking lot and not a leaf stirring, calm cool and collected as the old saying goes.    My coffee is hot and good.  There is nothing 'good' in this house and I am hungry for a really decent breakfast but to lazy to go and fix it.   Maybe later....or not!!!

There was not a lot of noisy activity around here last evening and I am thankful for that.   A few salutes went off but for the most part it stayed pretty quiet.   A salute to Freedom....now to enjoy it.

Go, have yourself a good day...all day...do what you love to do best....be a friend, be a helper, be good, be kind, be YOU.    Celebrate today!!  Hugs to all.

Fourth Of July!!!

Some one is out there in the roadway shooting off some fire crackers;  it is after nine, you would think they had enough for this holiday....not one of my favorites.  I did enjoy the company of my daughters, the treats, the pizza, the wine, special television programs that were well done and now the darkness of night and hopefully the end of the 'noise'.....so I am not a fire cracker lover....ha, ha, unless it is to see them from far away, the higher the better.

It was a good day, lovely weather, good television programs, and, as I said, good treats....there is something about pizza...smile.

So, my shoes are off;  the television is on;  most folks are hunkered down and had enough for today...with the exception of that one person who is out there shooting off some noisy fire crackers....hope he or she runs out soon....such appreciation for the 'idiot' who is firing off some noisy fire crackers. 

I have a fan on as the room was warm when I got back today.   I am in my pj's, have no shoes on, thinking a cup of hot tea but am not sure I want to go out into the kitchen and make one.....

I hope your holiday was great.  I hope you are enjoying quiet and peace now.  I hope that you had a great day.  Be good, be kind, be gentle, be YOU....be the harbinger of good.....like and love.....and write and tell me all about your special Fourth of July.....

Have sweet dreams....be good, be kind, be gentle, be YOU!!!  Hugs to all.

A New Tuesday all day!!

Good Morning....I think!!!  A good morning, quiet, grey sky, cars parked for the day, one silver truck, a beauty, grey wagon with window wings that stick out, two black four doors and an empty space which will fill up fast...a new day...a work day...a Tuesday all day!!!   Wonder what is in store for each of us.....um!!!!

My coffee is delicious, hot, waking me up to blog..about?????...have no idea.  It is early Tuesday morning and it is quiet.   There is an empty space left for another car.  Quiet....silence......a new day and not a breeze to be had.  The sky is a very pale blue, almost white, silence, a stillness with the tall trees standing quietly without any movement at all;  the leaves are still.  There is one bush that is different as the entire mass is green, several shades of green to be exact, and...the tops are an orange, pink, and yellow coloring as if to bloom but stopped before it got very far.  The bush next has one red flower, very tiny, hardly worth the effort to survive.  The third bush is low, rounded top and wants to bloom as there are some yellow flowers or little leaves showing.  The cars are coming in and the workers walking slowly to the front door.   They are probably still a little asleep and not quite ready for the new work day.  A hot coffee will wake them up and maybe someone remembered doughnuts to go with it.   I am ready for a refill, hunker in my chair and watch a little tv news.   I hope your day is a good one.  I hope you find what you are looking for.   I hope that you are blessed.  Go...have yourself a day to remember.

July!!!!!!

A very quiet Monday, the start of a brand new week;  the beginning of ????;  um....hopefully wonderful days and nights with our family and friends to love, to like, to celebrate time with...how lucky we are.  Right now today...Monday....is almost over and it was a quiet day for me.   I had lunch upstairs with the ladies, worked on the big puzzle on the table and WE are coming along really well.  There are some illusive pieces but then that is to be expected so that when one is found it is that proverbial pat on the back .   There are four dedicated puzzlers and I think, although this one is no where finished, a new puzzle has been selected to follow.    Meanwhile, down in the apartment there are new books to be read, dozens in the bookcase waiting but a yard sale or two this past weekend gifted us with some new ones.  I actually did read a few chapters in the book that is waiting patiently on my night stand for a bit of attention.   I do read every night before I turn off the light for the night.   I intend to read at least four chapters but some nights I am lucky to get through one....the restless soul of a reader..smile!!

The sky, at this minute, is a violet shade;  no stars, cannot think of how long it has been since I have seen stars....maybe if I stayed awake long enough I would but when the head hits the pillow...yawn....snoozing follows.

A quiet day, an alone day, a comfortable no shoe day, feet on the hassock, tv on with cowboys and right now folks are bringing their favorite pieces hoping for a million dollars for a tea cup...smile!!!  I am going to go out to the kitchen, put on some water for tea and make myself a cup of hot tea.  There is nothing good in this house....so nothing to go with it.  I cannot imagine where all those goodies go.....I know I made a store run and I did buy some fancy cookies....wonder where they went!!!

So, have a good rest of the day to yourself.   Make sure you have a good sleep, don't forget happy dreams....and make your tomorrow special;  just like YOU!! 

Sleep tight.....don't let the bed bugs bite......silly saying... catch up...I need a word or two.....a verbal hug will do.    GO!!!!  BE YOU!!!!  Hugs to all.
