Full Circle

Photo: A Little Book

Last week, while  cleaning the book shelves,  
I found a little book that had fallen
 behind some of the shorter books.
I hate when that happens...
when they fall like that 
it is almost as they have fallen 
into a black hole never 
to be found again, 
but in this instance, 
the book was found. 

I opened it.....

It was a Christmas (stocking) gift 
to Larry from me.
Larry had been to France with a 
dear friend the year before,
and we were planning a 
family trip to Paris that year.
But 1995 was the year my Mother died.
When I found this tiny book last week,
I became sad all over again.
Isn't it interesting how life goes 
full circle when you least expect it?

Love you beyond the moon.

Sunday Dinner and a Movie ~ June 14th, 2026

Photo: Sunday Dinner

 Menu
Beef Short Ribs cooked with Veggies
Mashed Potatoes and Gravy
Roll 
and
Cheese Plate
Cherry Pie

Movie: The Best Offer
Larry and I love this movie.

It took me a couple of days to post the Sunday Dinner update....I'm not sure why I am so far behind.
Perhaps it is just the weather?
Why do people always blame 
being grumpy on the weather?

Love you beyond the moon.

Sunday Flowers

Photo: Tulips by Robin

 Larry brought me Sunday Flowers yesterday.....
Purple Tulips!
Purple tulips are believed to have a calming effect on our minds and bodies. They are known to reduce stress and anxiety, and promote relaxation and inner peace. Purple tulips are often used in meditation practices to help us connect with our higher selves and the divine.
How on earth did Larry know I needed purple tulips?

Happy Monday.
Love you beyond the moon.

Sausage Biscuit

Photo- Downtown Plano, Texas  on a Rainy Sunday Morning. 

After doing yard work this morning
 Larry wanted  a sausage biscuit 
 from McDonalds.
We went out in the flooding rain
 and saw this sweet dog 
hanging out of the car window,
 enjoying the rain.
He was smiling big.

Love you beyond the moon.

I Texted A Photo

Photo: The Dining Room Bookshelves

 Yesterday, I started cleaning, 
sorting and rearranging the 
bookshelves in the dining room.
While changing things up a bit, 
I found a unique photo of my grandmother.
Thinking that I was doing a nice thing,
I texted the photo to a few people,
hoping that it might make them smile.
But no.
Crickets.
It made me sad....

I wish you a happy Saturday.
Love you beyond the moon.
