Here’s what I have so far.  Was lucky to find many of the […]

February 28th, 2008 · No Comments

Oh, I was so happy.  Even though it was nearly 5:30 p.m. yesterday evening, I was so happy to see the man from the tree service pull up in front of the house.  He backed his dump truck up into the driveway and left this behind!

I mean, that is a mulch pile!  :)  Any gardener […]

This picture is for…

February 27th, 2008 · 2 Comments

my daughter before I had a daughter.  And you know who you are. 

When I took the picture, Thomas asked what I was doing.  I told him who I was taking the picture for, because I thought she would like the colors.  So there I was, trying to be all elegant and everything, and […]

Rainy Day Fun

February 26th, 2008 · No Comments

I sure wanted my mulch delivered today, but the tree service got rained out. 
It’s okay, though.  My daughter and I decided that if we can’t plant outside, we’ll plant inside!

I bought a little Jiffy Greenhouse and a packet of shasta daisy seeds. 

We also chose some seeds from a collection that I keep in an old, green McCoy planter.

The […]

February 25th, 2008 · 2 Comments

Sunshine makes me happy!  Does it make you happy?
I went on my walk and I took a picture of the same church steeple that I photographed on Saturday morning.  Here’s the steeple in the clouds.

And here is the same steeple in the bright, beautiful sun!

Saturday’s Child…

February 23rd, 2008 · 2 Comments

works hard for a living.  And he does work hard for me and his dad.  He’s a good boy and a good son. 
It was so late when I posted last night that the date showed up as today, but it was really last night and now this is today — Saturday.  Today is my son’s birthday — […]

Good News!

February 23rd, 2008 · 5 Comments

I spoke today with the doctor who did my core needle biopsy.  The diagnosis is fibrosis, which is benign.  I am so very, very thankful. 
I have to go back in six months and get this followed up.
This experience has totally broadened my view.  There’s a bigger place in my heart for those dealing with breast cancer.
One of my goals now is to be consistent in walking daily.  […]
