LOVERLIES

I'm feeling really appreciative and blessed today. I try to feel that way always but I guess I'm just overflowing today. And the funny thing is this is just over small things which actually could be huge things when I think about it. I'm rattling - again.
1. Another morning walk with 4-legged-7th-child. The wonders of being home and going for a walk whenever I want. Neighbors and friends to wave to and stop and chat with...sweet widow Billie J. and her Yorkie Sassy. Just so nice.
2. A washing machine that really does all the work!!! So easy to have clean clothes and the laundry done. How could I ever complain!
3. My "solar drier" clothesline that gets me outside hanging that clean laundry.
4. A big rose blooming along with red cherry tomatoes, red sweet bell peppers and almost all yellow lemons, petunias and geraniums to deadhead.
5. Fresh ground whole wheat flour and a bread machine doing all the work for my soon to be loaf of wholesome bread.
6. Hot water for a long, soaking bath.
7. Leftover bread pudding.
8. Your blogs to check in on you and mine to let you know what the old folks are up to.
9. Getting to spend the evening with the AZ grands tonight so T&M can have a night out.
There is so much more. May we all take the time to notice our loverlies, blessings and even the ability and courage to get-through the not-so-pleasant-times (usually on our knees in supplication). 3

Jody is also so very greatful, don't have the viggies and flowers right now, but lots of other good blessings in my life. My kids, grandkids, home, job (did I really just write that!?) church, the season, health, friends, and all the other things MSK mentioned. Love and Hugs
