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.

Saturday already...wow!!!

Good Morning. It is pitch black out my window, worker car moving in slowly and parking for the work day. It is very early so the sky is black and there is nothing moving, well, a worker car coming in but most are already in for the first shift of the day. My coffee cup is almost empty that first cup seems to disappear as you set it down. This is the time of morning when you hear silence. This is quiet time. This is a wake up time and some of us take a bit longer than others. I do have one eye open. My mind????? Well that takes a bit more time. It is Saturday, all day, and it should be interesting to find out what is going to unfold. Plans??? None..smile. I will take today as it comes and find out what I want to do as it unfolds. The sky is deep blue velvet, trees mere shadows, the television is on in one of the hospital rooms as the shade is up and a light is on. Out in the parking area the side light is on and reflects on the car roofs. Silence...quiet....can't tell the sky from the tree tops and at this moment nothing is moving.....the sound of silence...so profound. My coffee cup is empty so I am off for a refill I don't have a lot to write about this morning as I had a more or less quiet day yesterday. I did get out and about. I did have a fun time with daughter Patricia, and I really have nothing to complain about....ha.ha....and you thought I did.... I am going to give you a break and let you go on about your business this morning. I have time to put my feet up, turn on the television and check out the Saturday morning cowboys...Yippee ..... I need a refill of my coffee, has to be hot and at the right sipping stage to be enjoyed. I have nothing to go with it...maybe there is a piece of bread left to toast but it wont be the same as a big fat jelly doughnut. Think of the calories I'm saving...ha.ha....well that must count for something. Make your day extra special .like you....have a day you will remember for some time to come.....a memory builder....a 'smile' day....and throw in a hug or two. I'm off for a refill, feet up, tv on....cowboys...yipee....see you later...much later...ha.ha. It is Saturday morning, la, la, la, la..... Be good, be kind, be wonderful...you are you know.

Number Two for today....afternoon....a rainy day!!

Hello. The rain is raining, nice to see and the bird is on the roof top unmindful of it, doesn't seem to bother it a bit. The worker cars are parked on my side and there is a very bright orange sedan, a four door, rail tops and the red in the back lights clash; black would have been classy!!! I was out and about with daughter Patricia for awhile this morning, a bit of the junker store and a few treasures to find. Lunch out in a local restaurant and the food was good, crowded today and busy so we had a wait before we got to have our very early breakfast late...smile. We went for a ride in the rain. I am humming "I love a rainy day." and I do. I like to watch the rain drops fall and even like to walk in the rain but not today as it is late in the afternoon and I used up all my energy. Shoes off.....feet up.....going to turn the TV on and see what is on there. I missed lunch here and the ladies and the puzzle today but I am not unhappy hunkered down in my easy chair watching a good show or two. I have a lot of reading material to go through an one of these days I might just get through some of it...smile. well, my intentions are always good. BUT.... I wanted to stop in and say hello ...wish you a good rest of your day....and hope to hear that you are having the start of a really good weekend...Friday seems endless sometimes, but it is the start of your weekend and it is important not to miss a second of it. As I told you, the rain s coming down and it is nice to watch the rain drops bounce off the pavement. I had my walk in the rain...from the restaurant where we had a late breakfast or early lunch today and not a very long one a the car was parked right by the door. I just wanted to touch base; going to hunker down in my chair, turn on the TV, and relax. Well, I might make a cup of hot tea....wonder if I have anything left to go with it. I certainly am not hungry but it seem a must to have some little munching with it. I wonder if I an classify saltine crackers as a treat......well, if I have to. Off I go. Have a good rest of the day and enjoy yourself. Be good...be kind...be gentle....be YOU!!! Hugs to all.

And Now It Is Friday Morning!!!

Good morning. Pitch black out my window, cars parked outside on my side of the tarmac and the little bird is sitting on the roof top in the dark. Well, the night light is still on and a few cars are leaving and the worker is going home to bed and a few folks are just walking up the tarmac and getting ready for a new work day. Me..I have one eye open, coffee hot...aah...had a piece of raisin toast and it was okay but.....smile!! There are two new cars on the lot this morning; one a box affair that is white and the other is a standard car with a glass roof top; one red or rust colored car and a couple of black or dark grey, too early to see. The sky is soft, tree tops still, and the bird is snoozing on the roof top as it waits for the sun to come up. There is a new boxed white car on the lot this morning and there is one that is more orange than red. and....not a junker in the bunch!!! I am smiling as you could write my opening paragraph every day....same old...same old. ha...ha.. It is Friday. I have no plans. I have laundry to do. I have dusting to do. I have a book to read and the desire to run away never goes away...smile. So, I wish you a good day ...all day....hopefully some fun time and lunch out in your favorite restaurant. Be sure you invite a friend along. As for me, I have laundry to do; move a bit of dust around and maybe go for a walk around the block for exercise a bit later. or, one never knows if an invitation or two is in the offering and I am never one to say no..smile. Go..make your day memorable. Do a good deed or two. Stay healthy and wise. Be YOU....Hugs to all.

It is Thursday all day!!!

Good morning. It is quiet, windless, nothing moving as the worker cars are all parked and they are in for the day. The blinds are down in all but one room so they are sleeping in this morning. I would be to but my body clock goes off early and says get up whether I want to or not. I have no idea why I think I have to get my feet on the floor before the sun comes up. I chalk it up to 'bad' habits or the residue of nuns who meant well...smile. It is Thursday, right now a beautiful morning. The sky is light blue and the sun is shining on the tall trees. The bird is on the roof and the worker cars look clean and bright and shining on my side of the tarmac this morning. I see a new grey wagon out there this morning...a real beauty....it has a shield on the window to protect the upholstery from the sunshine. There is one car with a soft tan shade different and really nice looking. There are more grey shades and a couple of very dark blue or black...hard to tell from here. I can tell you it is quiet My coffee cup is empty...um...think I had better get a refill, hunker down and listen to some news for awhile and later..much later....smile...I'll get dressed and start a new day but no plans as yet..smile. I hope your day is a good one and you find things to do and places to go and friends to share tie with. I hope you share you with those you love and like. Be good...be kind...be YOU!! Coffee.....coffee....my cup is empty......I'll be back when I have some news or views ..smile!! Meanwhile enjoy your breakfast, share you with those you love and like and have yourself a day to remember. Hugs to all. '

Hump Day!!

Good Morning. A new Wednesday morning and it is hazy outside, a bit of fog in the trees, grey in the sky and all the worker cars are parked on 'my' side facing my window and one is a brilliant orange...tangerine might be a better color to say, stands out loud and clear with the white and black ones. There is a haze in the air, trees are still and the bird is on the roof to looking out over its world. A new Wednesday morning, that song with the words "a hush comes over the world" comes to mind. A new day and a day to check the figures of the budget and get ready for new days, weeks, and a bit of living for a month...one follows another so the routine is easy, Now all I need is a big raise but that sure does not happen ...pinching pennies is getting to be a habit...an old one...ha.ha. I want a raise...I want some money in the bank....I want to travel....I want...I want.....ha...ha. I bet I am in good company. Well, there is nothing new and different to report this morning, It is quiet around here, the bird is on the roof top and not a leaf stirring. I am waiting for Chris to come and we are doing my budget for the month. There is so many ways to pinch a penny and I think I have thought of them all. I'd like a raise but that is not about to come about; if wishes were horses beggars would ride.....ha.ha. I'd probably get an old plow horse.... The morning quiet, the stillness of the trees, the pale sky and a blooming bush across the way tells me Spring is springing....right now I'd say we might get a little rain and that is okay. I like rain. I even like to walk in the rain. So, I wish you a good day, all day, doing what you want to do....if you left a chore or two for another day, well it wont hurt to leave alone for one more day...go out the door...find places to go and things to do and make your day bright and beautiful...just like you. A small truck like vehicle just went through and it is dirty...wonder if they know what a car wash is.....sad to see....some one is lazy. The macadam is wet looking although it is not raining at the moment. The little birds are over in the big flowered bush this morning. One is sitting on the roof top watching the cars come in and park. I wonder if it sits up there wondering which car to give a little gift to...smile. Be good, be kind, be gentle, be YOU!!! Catch up when you have time. I want to know what YOU are doing...nosy....no.....just curious ....wishful thinking as I'd like to be sharing time with YOU. Hugs to all.

Now It Is Tuesday Morning!!!

Good Morning. A new Tuesday, hopefully a good day all day doing what we like to do and not have to do....famous last words...smile. It is early, cannot tell the earth from the sky as it is pitch black out my window but the night light is still on over on the side of the hospital building. Nothing moving at the minute but soon worker cars will be coming in. It has to be a little after five a.m....why am I up???? Who knows, the body clock goes off and up I get and the mind is a bit behind but coming awake slowly. The coffee cup needs to be refilled and I am sure there is something to go with it. I'll be back.... yes, I had a coffee bun waiting to devour and I am already sorry I ate it....why I do that is beyond me as I know it is to early for food...just coffee is enough to wake the body up..oh well, live and learn....next time I'll just settle for a sip or two of coffee and give the body a chance to wake up. Ha, ha...until I put my feet on the floor and head for the kitchen and check out the goodies I was not going to ever buy again...well the thought was there but the body is weak when it comes to sugar....sweet rolls have a call all their own. It is a new Tuesday, no plans yet, but I am sure I'll make some before the morning is over. So I wish you a good day all day doing what you want to do and I hope you will share you with those you love and like. Good deeds are good for the body and the soul, so get busy and be a mover and a shaker today. I am off to sip my coffee, finish my news and that will not take much time as I didn't do anything special or go anywhere to brag about....but...one never knows what the day will bring so...I am off to refill my coffee cup, it is so much better when hot. I will say goodbye and wish you a good day all day. Be good, be kind, be loving and your day will be a really good one. Send me a verbal hug...yeah one or two will do...more if you are in the mood to be 'good'....and you are always so 'good'.....I will love you and leave you for now....coffee cup in hand, feet up on the hassock tv news on and tie to enjoy the early morning wake up call. Be good...be hind...be YOU!! Hugs to all.

Now it is Monday again...smile!!!

Good Morning. It is quiet, worker cars parked on my side this morning. It is silent outside, no breeze, nothing moving and I am going off to make the coffee...then I can blog as I will be awake...almost. Be back!! AAH!! Hot, delicious, raisin toast..yum....I'm set....Taste buds alert....smile!!! It is silent around here, blinds down on the windows of the hospital wing. I see three grey worker cars this morning and one orange one. There is a grey cloud in the sky behind the tree line. The bird is on the roof top. A new day begins. I hope you put a lot into your day; a lot of energy and love which you can share with those you love and like. I wish you a good day, all day...don't forget a good deed or two. Help a friend, lose an enemy and make today a banner day. Go!!!! Be YOU!!!! Hugs to all.
