“Choosing not to enjoy moments meant 

for joy doesn’t exempt you from 

the suffering that may follow. 

Time you let slip away is never recovered. 

It’s your loss if you choose not to make the most of it.”

~ Philosopher DJ Kyos~

Good Morning this Tuesday!   Our project is over.  We have wonderful neighbors that shared their son's side business with us.  Viewpoint Exteriors put in new windows for us.  The deal was too good to pass up.  

These two young men changed out our 18 windows in a day and a half.  They were very considerate of our dogs and us.  They cleaned before, during and after the installation of each window.  

The reason it was a huge project for us is that we had to remove the blinds from each of the windows and that also meant moving furniture away from in front of each window so they had room to work.  

Yes, we pushed & pulled most of the furniture in the house around before they got there and we also climbed on ladders and carried heavy (to us they were heavy) blinds out of the house.  

Rbt was talking to Branden as he was caulking the windows and noticed that he would smear the caulk off his fingers onto the window. My hubby thought this nice young man had lost his mind. Then he realized the film hadn't been removed yet.  

The end results were well worth the days of preparation it took us and the days after to get furniture inside and plants outside put back in place.  But our bodies may not agree with that quite yet.  More to come tomorrow.  

"Sometimes, success doesn't come overnight;

it's achieved after a long journey,

traveled with patience, perseverance, 

and unwavering faith."

Good Monday Morning!  We are still enjoying nice temperatures as we start the day at 66°.  

Come sit with me a while and let the world drift by.  Yesterday was a pleasant almost 80° day with a gentle cool breeze.  

Coffee is ready and blankets are available.  The leaves have started to fall because of the cold spell we had a week ago.  

The leaves had definitely started changing colors too.  Mother Nature is trying to tell us that change is coming even to Texas.  

I am hoping that you have a perfect Monday filled with all the Blessings & Hugs that you can stand today.  

And know that if you can't be here with me that I am there with you, right by your side.  

Psalms 47

1 Clap your hands, all peoples! Shout to God with loud songs of joy!

2 For the LORD, the Most High, is to be feared, a great king over all the earth.

3 He subdued peoples under us, and nations under our feet.

4 He chose our heritage for us, the pride of Jacob whom He loves. Selah

5 God has gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.

6 Sing praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our King, sing praises!

7 For God is the King of all the earth; sing praises with a psalm!

8 God reigns over the nations; God sits on hHs holy throne.

9 The princes of the peoples gather as the people of the God of Abraham. For the shields of the earth belong to God; He is highly exalted!

We are so busy this Friday and weekend.  I hope you are doing something fun.

You should stop by for coffee before the day gets too hectic.  

I have the perfect chair just to sit and relax in while we visit.  

We could talk about flowers and plants!  Do you have a favorite?  

Or we could talk about a Mother's love!  Isn't that a loving lick?

Just by being you and sharing your world with me!  Blessings & Hugs!  Pam

Good morning to each of my sweet friends! 44 degrees here with sunshine! Just a trace of snow left on the ground now. We had a surprise visit yesterday, morning. Our friend from Mississippi, dropped by to see us!! He came north to deer hunt. We had a couple hours to catch up on each others lives!! Tuesday morning, Boyd&I had our meeting with our Insurance advisor. Then we went to Leesburg and picked up Bill. He had the day off from work. We visited his uncle and three aunts!! A blessed day we all enjoyed! Look for the good in each day! Hugs Shirley

Wednesday and the middle of the week is here already.  

I hope you can keep up with me this week.  It is a very busy week.  

Don't let this smile fool you.  You just never know what is going on in this brain!  

We have so many different things that we are trying to get done all at the same time.  

So keep an eye out for me and I will try to keep the top open for you!  

Even though all I really want to do is go back to bed and say Good Night!
