It's never too late to change your life for the better. 

You don't have to take huge steps to change it. 

Even the smallest changes in your daily routine 

can make a big difference.

I want to give you a heads up about the month of September and possibly beyond (or it could be less).  I might not be here as often to post dailys to you.  

I retired over 10 years ago.  Then I started working part time. This will be the 4th time that I work "almost" full time until a replacement can be found.  Two years ago the person Kelly hired said she would stay 4 years or more and never move to be closer to her children.  She has been there for 2 years, and now she is moving.  So we have already scheduled the month of September and I will be working about 14 of 22 days.  It usually takes months for Edward Jones to hire and train a brand new person.  However, if someone transfers to this office, it might not take as long.  

I love working with Kelly and Jen and the clients.  Each day there is fun for me but I am getting older and slower.  When working, I require more sleep.   I will try to read and respond when I can each evening.  Please know that I will look forward to reading your posts and seeing your beautiful graphics.  I start working Tuesday, September 2nd, the day after Labor Day.  

Happy Monday. Hope it's a pleasant one!
Take care, Gayle. *hugs*  -di

Hello, my lovely friend.

Would you like to know the news from this Monday... the last one before school starts again?

Three sisters, Chantal Mary and Sharon Ananas, took advantage of the beautiful summer weather to spend the weekend at the seaside.

How surprised they were to meet some local cats....

Wendy kept a close eye on her daughter, Kathy, who, still young, didn't dare venture too far into the water...

While Louis took their son, Hector, for a jet ski ride...

Solange, always very flirtatious, strolled leisurely, her bag slung over her shoulder...

Cindy went for a swim...

while her sister, Caroll, not very comfortable in the water, preferred to use a buoy.

Everyone was having a great time... under the watchful eye of Tom, our landlubber, a little more outspoken than usual...

Bernard, still very comfortable in an armchair, discreetly observed Caroline lounging on a deck chair, ignoring the loving glances of this red-haired pasha..

As for me, I'm going to leave you for now, because my furbaby is asking for food...

I send you lots of love across the miles

See you tomorrow

Yvette

( hope you liked this story....)

I hope you have a wonderful last week of August.  News coming up for September, look for it.  

I know that in some places, some of you are getting cooler temperatures.  But Summer is still here!  

Yes, there are less than 30 days left of my favorite season.  I love the heat and the long daylight days.  

As the days begin to get shorter and the temperatures begin to cool once in a while with less humidity, the colors of the sunrise and sunset get more beautiful.  

Yes, I love to take pictures of the colorful paintings by God.  So as you start to celebrate Autumn or Fall, remember that even the end of Summer can still be a beautiful HOT mess.  

I'm not saying I don't like Fall or Spring, but I am saying I don't like Winter and it comes all too soon for me.  By the time the sun sets in Summer, I will be counting the days until it is back again. 

I will be this forever summer girl from Cat ready for Vacations and fishing and fun memories sitting in the sun!  Blessings & Hugs!  

have a super week

Huggggggggggs

Focus on what really matters. 

Strive to achieve more with less effort. 

Creating and sharing stories should generate excitement, 

joy, and purpose, not frustration, 

fear, or insecurity.

It is here!  The early beginning of the weekend.  

So today is a perfect day to start slow.  How can anyone drink coffee in bed?  And why is the steam coming from the newspaper instead of the coffee?  

The Summer temperature is winding down but the Humidity is ramping up.   It was like soup in the air this morning!  

However, it is a perfect excuse for a nice cold drink especially before going out this evening.  Wipe that grin off your face.  

After all, it is Friday and the night is time for some dirty dancing!  Rock & Roll baby!  

I will save my new outfit for a hot date on Saturday night which might include some dinner and s l o w dancing.  

You wouldn't mind babysitting for 2 nights in a row, would you?  You can't say no to a sweet face like that, now can you?  Blessings & Hugs!  Pam  

Grace is what lifts me up and propels me to soar! 

Grace always wins! 

Be kind in all things: in anger, in sadness, in joy, 

in kindness, in cruelty—keep grace with you!
