The sun rose this morning and burst to life in a beautifully watercolored sunrise waking the earth to a glorious day. Mother Nature informed Father Sky we had had enough of his clouds and overcast sky canvases and told him today was a day for the sun to celebrate her glory, to warm the Earth…

I’m enjoying the Christmas tree in the lady den tonight, drinking hot coffee that will probably keep me awake at bedtime, reminiscing about family Christmases celebrated in my home, thanking the Lord for all my blessings. Our hearts are in our homes beating with the love of our families. Maya Angelou said, “The ache for…

Visiting my grandchildren so my words this morning are from my archives… My friend down the street just walked up to borrow a cup of brown sugar. We borrowed her pliers last year on Christmas Eve. Isn’t that a small town act of kindness. I love it! And I love my friends! Real friends are…

Today the sun yanked off her cloud covers, broke through the rolled up banks of purple and cigar smoke clouds, and beamed down her beautiful warm smile on Mother Earth. I was walking Penelope and felt the sun’s kisses on my face. As the hour of sunset approached, Mother Nature dressed the sun in a…

The sky canvas was a bowl of melted vanilla ice cream today. Father Sky kept the clouds tightly bound together, hard to make out the different colors swirled together but when I stared at the clouds for a few moments I could see gray and white and a faint purple, a little chocolate syrup mixed…

The sky was a melted vanilla, the day cool and damp. I think Mother Nature flung some of her watercolors in shades of gray and purple and blue on Father Sky’s overcast sky canvas. I could pick out the watercolors when I studied the sky. I’m missing Father Sky kissing the sun goodnight at dusk,…

Another cold day featuring a beautiful overcast sky. When I walked Penelope the melted vanilla ice cream sky canvas was covered in cigar smoke clouds, rolled up like a foggy morning’s ocean waves slapping a sandy beach. So pretty. I looked for the supermoon after dark but he was hidden from sight, his large luminous…

Had to pick up a Wally World grocery order today. Got in my car and it wouldn’t crank. Called Wally World grocery pickup four times but nobody answered, they were busy. I knew they kept the orders for 24 hours but I had already told them I was on the way. Anyway, I called oldest…

Today was cold and damp, the sky a canopy of melted white chocolate overcast clouds. The sun was hiding behind her cloud covers enjoying the warmth of her rays. I love Father Sky’s sky canvases but his pastel sticks and Mother Nature’s watercolor brushes were held hostage by the heavy clouds. I didn’t get to…
