snow dusted firs ; one part of a very long conversation yesterday; & five crows on a snow bank-
|
A former guest coming in and telling me about his welding test coming up tomorrow and just wanting to SHARE that excitement with me. It made me smile.
|
the good stuff
The swing in Grandmas backyard
A walk around the block with the one I love A Road trip in a car or down memory lane in a Navy yearbook Being someones sweetheart everyday |
Waking to the sound of birds chirping.
Warm sunshine and the sweet smell of grass. Watching Lulu The Princess Bean frolick at the park Epiphanies... |
~~that's about the point where I just want to turn off my phone and say fergit y'all

Cilantro.
Fresh cilantro, chopped into hot steamy rice and veggies. I could get drunk on that aroma! Cilantro. |
The tiny shivers of happy, happy anticipation skidaddling all about.

Every 5 minutes I am looking out back to see if the new bird feeder Mrs. Day got from Jae last night is getting any new birdy visitors. :cluck::cluck::cluck: :daywalker: |
3 oreos as a reward for getting work done.
Looking around me, seeing my house come together as a home. Youtube, that tells me the words to music so it makes sense for the first time in my life. But that is such a change, it doesnt really feel little. Im having a great day off. :flyingpig: |
Rooted

My day off too. Music filling the house and the bamboo windchimes playing along in the wind. Transplanting in-door 6 ft. trees to bigger pots,.cuttings from the the jade and cactus all rooted and ready to give away. |

having really good neighbors who arent intrusive but are friendly and caring of each other. I havent had this since the old days out in farm country ....
grooming a horse in the spring and getting covered with horse hair as they shed off their winters coat freshly shaved legs, lotioned and smooth to the touch a dab of perfume every day...just because... drinking coffee from your special cup.... a call from a young niece who lives 600 miles away because she loves her auntie wearing an apron of your moms |
This thread. *smiling*
Knowing that the annoying barking dog is NOT mine. Big galumphin' galoot needing a den, but not wanting to be in his crate--and curling up on a blanket he dragged under the cat's feeding table. The ferocity of a teensy twelve-pound doglet with a bone when the big galumphin' galoot breathes her same air... and the way she suddenly stops growling to look up and implore me ever-so-politely with those big soulful brown eyes, "Mom? Please don't take my bone... please, Mom?" Discovering the mudroom is warmer than the rest of the house today! Open the door and let the light in! |

All the material so I can do crafty, home made centerpieces for my daughters baby shower on Sat....
I hope she loves it. I still cannot believe that I'm going to be a Glam-ma.:harp: |
Being online here with My friends
Being alive My health, other than gallbladder problems and tooth ache Yogurt (fieldberry) Flavored water (tangerine lime) Chocolate pudding |
flashes of colors as brave flowers begin to say hello. I am HERE
dirt under my nails cause I spent the dusk planting flowers a tired body from LOTS of yard work, that says, oh yes, sleep is gonna come eassssssy tonight. |
Seeing the first of the American Robins of the season all over the lawn in the backyard and watching mah kittehs (who are TN born, and having their first look at California Springtime stuff happening) look at each other like: "OmG...those are huge, and they brought their own gang" :help: :playingcat: :daywalker: |
Finding two purple crocuses at the foot of a tree in the side yard! *just beams*
|
rudolph -
clarice |
watching seeds sprout as my mouth waters
fresh mint tea sitting on the front porch hearing the fountain, water trickle and looking out across my farm a phone call at just the right time avocado's with fresh squeezed key lime's from my trees (no they dont grow in VA lol- greenhouse) the faint sound of Indian flute |
waking very early to the sound of birdies chittering and tweeting softly... stretching very delightfully to come awake (one of those stretches that is sooooo satisfying) and getting a big smile from the warm little furbaby body curled up tight next to me, day dreaming about future delightful mornings after I get my move done.
Feeling secure and safe. Thinking about how good it will feel to give up this very large, high maintenance, high priced place (that has many "luxuries") for a very sweet, peaceful, gentle, beautiful, less stressful place that has less house and more open land away from the city where I can once again enjoy the little things and more peaceful moments.... But I'll miss one little thing that means a lot to me... spending quality time with my very dear friends here in PA... and just savoring a cup of coffee while I listen to them vent about their day and delight in their smiles, laughter and warm hugs. While packing, finding the very first birthday card my dad sent me...and the bitter-sweet moment when I placed it with the very last one he sent just a few months before his passing. Discarding clutter to put things behind me, but packing things that I will cherish. |
Liking the new color eyeliner I bought.. :)
Enjoying seeing the faces of my residents as they sign my "bus trip log"..they know they are gettin outta here and im their ride! :) :byebye: |
Birds are chirping and the day looks beautiful. The hope springs forth that this is going to be a good day.
|
The tulips peeking up and out, of the snow.

a perfect weekend with the queen and her tiny grand daughter
who repeats everything you say baby horses and cows everywhere you look a mild thunder storm while sitting on the back porch and the lightnin bugs showing up for the first time after a harsh winter. tons of frogs croaking in the pond healthy and spoiled dogs Arnold in his humpy pool (rubber girlfriend) sleeping in a smidge genuwhine :hrmph:friends |
receiving a surprise gift of two little daisies... that I pressed between the pages of my great grampa's old book for safe keeping and reminder of fond memories... http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_YiY9aRU_3Y...d+lg+named.jpg |
A fish called Guppy
If you separate guppies into male and female groups, the largest and most aggressive of the females will transform into a male.
|
Hearing the snort and snuffle coming from the little dog following me around in the yard.
Getting those text messages. Climbing out of bed in the morning and knowing that you are lucky enough to have another day. |
Walking in the door after an ass kicking day.... hugs and kisses from my Daddy and hot steamy pizza from Papa Johns... :happyjump:
|
Waking up to kisses
Waking up again to big puppy snoring in my ear Text messages Memories... they make the world go 'round Some chores being done Some things for a project or two being done Hugs and kisses and storytime Monkey |

Coffee and then Monkey. |
The quiet of the evening in this big semi-empty house
The stillness of the night covering my world like a blanket tucking in my spirit The smell of coffee when I get it ready for brewing in the morning My kingsized bed with just me and my puppy who loves me no matter what Knowing sleep will come .....eventually |
Calls from friends, near and far.
A hot shower to relive sore muscles. A nice long walk on a beautiful clear evening. A kind and pretty young woman at the deli making a sandwich just how I wanted it. The last of some very tasty cookies. |
walking along the shore so completely absorbed i forget i'm walking.
watching kitty look around the room. |
walking around my yard with my dog walking beside me, off leash...feeling serene in the moment
finding plastic ducks with graduation hats on them for my kid's graduation party. Ever since she was young,she has loved ducks. Her theme for the party is Conquackulations...lol being able to bake cookies in my own oven for this party... shrek glassware! |
I am miserable and on bed rest but feeling my babies kick in my stomach makes my heart flutter every time
|
the promise of a beautiful day
finding the gift of her writing squirrels playing tag music everywhere I go her voice; God, her voice feelings a hot dog and popcorn for dinner at the movies a contented pooch |
The sweetness of cherries.
Cuddling with my precious pup. Finally finding my glasses and seeing life in a non blurry state. |
