Day One Hundred Twenty Three

Out And About On A Blue Sky Monday

Heading home after a trip to Wal-Mart around 1:30 today. The blue sky and puffy clouds were nothing short of awesome. The word on the billboard on the left side of the picture speaks volumes--can't help remembering the towns still under water after all the weekend flooding. I am blessed to live on high ground, but some roads here were under water this morning.

Couldn't resist snapping another cell phone camera picture of the deep blue sky and white clouds while waiting for grand daughter after school. Just wow.

Snapped this at Cane Creek Rec Center after leaving my fitness class. (Yes, Jane, I actually went to class! Woo Hoo!) That lake is usually dry ground. More beautiful shades of blue to make my day. So much to be thankful for. So many folks still needing prayers. Hope you are someplace warm and safe and dry.

Picture Postcards From A Gloomy Sunday

Time can stand still at the worst possible moment. And on days like today, you think it's never going to stop raining. But those of us with Faith know that the sun will come out again and time never stopped in the first place. Sometimes it just moves on without us. I'm so grateful for each and every loved one. Always. Sending you love and hugs.

Inside

Today was a good day to stay inside. Flooding in middle Tennessee. Hope you are warm and safe and dry tonight wherever you might be.

'Bud' The Caterpillar

Grand daughter Shelby found this caterpillar on the school playground today. She sneaked him into her classroom and hid him in her backpack--the side pocket that is mesh, so the caterpillar could breathe. She fished him out when she got to my house--said it was a girl because a classmate in the know said it was. She named her 'Bud' and made her a bed of leaves inside the bug box we keep handy for such situations. I'm telling you, kids don't require toys to have fun. She enjoyed petting her and talking to her and making sure she had everything she needed to be comfortable. Then she wanted to go inside and read a book. Cool.

Meet 'Bud'--a most cherished caterpillar if ever there was one. 'Bud' says, "Thank God it's Friday!"

Wishing everyone a lovely weekend.

Water Gun Fun

This is one way to get the plants watered ...

This is what you look like after you've squirted yourself in the face with a water gun ... Don't let the look fool you--he thought it was fun ...

Shoot the bee! It's not easy shooting a bee with a water gun. But it's the best fun ever.

Hope your Thursday was fun!
