Another Week

Good news.

It is drizzling outside this morning.

It is still warm and humid,

but drips are falling out of the sky!

I am so happy!

Perhaps now, our weather

 will be somewhat normal?

***

Yesterday's dinner and a movie 

was nice.

 I made parfaits for dessert...

diabetic parfaits.

Fruit and zero sugar Ready Whip.

More good news.

The dessert did not spike my glucose numbers.

*****

Today I am trying to get lots of errands done.

The house is such a mess,

but it doesn't bother me like it once did.

Please God,

Don't let me become an old lady hoarder.

*****

OK. Enough of that.

There are rain showers here this morning.

Autumn has arrived

and

I have lived to blog another week.

Life is good.

Love you beyond the moon.

A Blue Blurrrr

 Last week was a blue blurr.

I am tired today and look forward to time with Larry 

and reading a bit.

Summer is still here in Texas.

I cannot wait for the cooler weather to arrive.

It is Sunday morning and Larry has something on his mind.....

so we will leave on an adventure in a few minutes.

Please have the best day.

Love you beyond the moon.

Harvest Moon

Photo: September's Full Harvest Moon by Robin

I was outside last evening
and was overcome by the
beauty surrounding me.
This is yesterday's picture.
I have been rather grumpy lately.
Is this a grumpy picture?

Love you beyond the Moon.

The Calm

 Yesterday, I worked on a Christmas gift

 and watched the BBC version 

of Little Women.

It was relaxing.

I wish you a calm Friday.

Love you beyond the moon.

The Dried Roses

Photo: The Roses

 Last week I came across a large 

zip-loc bag in a desk drawer.

It was filled with dried roses and baby's breath

from the family arrangement that was

 at my Mother's funeral.

Mother died on August 13th, 1995.

(Norman, my father, bought the flowers

 and brought them to The Cottage in 1995. 

He asked me to make the family 

arrangement for Mother's service. 

I was so happy to do it)

When I found the flowers, last week,

I took this photo and threw 

the dried flowers away.

It was sad to throw them away,

 but it was OK. I am OK.

Life has an uncanny way of moving on 

and you have no choice 

but to hang on and go along with it.

Life isn't exactly as I imagined 

it would be at my age.

I think that it might be better.

Life is truly wonderful....

Love you beyond the moon.
