If you want to see the sunshine, you have to weather the storm…
Opened my eyes this morning and I could see the beautiful blue sky, white fluffy clouds sketched on the blue sky canvas by Father Sky. The morning sun’s rays were filtering down through the bamboo canes so prettily. Another glorious day for me to make my own. I remembered a quote I read yesterday that…

As Grandaddy always said, “He’s a fine little fella!”…
Drove to Peachtree City this morning to visit the grandchildren and go to church with them. Went by Shady Oaks and was afraid they’d keep me if I stopped. Bertha, my Tahoe, wanted to drive in and check out the parking but I persevered and we kept going. The sky was cloudy, full of grays…

Normal is a setting on a washing machine…
If you are a cloud and sky watcher like me we’ve seen a little of everything today. We’ve had blue skies with sunshine and white fluffy clouds and overcast skies and angry purple cloud skies and gentle rainfalls and heavy short lived rains. We’ve heard some thunderclaps and seen some lightning bolts. Father Sky has…

May the rain wash away your worries…
Today has just flown by, don’t know what I accomplished if anything. Oldest brother came by to tell me had taken his new puppy to vet brother for a checkup. He was talking about the dog like it was a grandchild. Good to see him so happy about something. We checked on my garden and…

Hands in the dirt, head in the sun…
So pretty today, bright and green and HOT when you’re putting pine straw around things. Can’t find my gardening gloves so it’s slow go with the pine straw. That stuff is prickly. I swear that raccoon that opened my plastic box of things on the porch several months ago stole them. I’ve always kept the…

The time of day when fairies wake…
Opened the door this morning on a beautiful blue sky day and there was Fatty, hanging upside down on a bird feeder raking in the seeds as fast as she could. She scampered off when she heard the door shut and I promptly greased the pole again. Ordered some squirrel food that looks pretty good,…

“The sun’ll come out tomorrow…”
Going to bed last night I gave myself a lecture about doing some household chores today. Nope! Sat down on the porch to eat my bagel and I’m still sitting here at 3:30 in the afternoon. And in the great schemes of things it doesn’t matter if I sit here as long as I want.…

Birds serve as the eyes of heaven…
Today was rather fallish in my corner of the world. I walked Penelope in a light rain this morning and tried to sit on the porch and ponder but it was just too cool and damp. Pitiful when 61 degrees makes me cold. Guess I’m getting old. If this day was in the fall it…

The love of a family is a life’s greatest blessing…
Hope all have had a beautiful Mother’s Day with your children. For those of us who have children in heaven I know they are looking down and smiling at us. The day has been a good day in so many ways! My youngest son gave me the World Encyclopedia of Butterflies and Moths and I…

A happy family is an earlier heaven…
Been pondering on Mother’s Day perched in the porch swing and watching the songbirds. The sky is dark blue and has a few wisps of clouds floating along like beautiful fish in a blue crystal fish bowl. When the fish swam away the sky stayed cloud free the rest of the day. I read quotes…
