Outside my Window...
I see the wind blowing but the sun is shinning and I know that we are going to get more rain…

I am thinking...about that maybe someday our whole family will get together and have a family get together…maybe we could rent a mutual place to share and enjoy …

I am thankful for...the summer, sunshine and the breezes…so we may air out our homes and clothing…

From the kitchen...I am preparing a roast with potatoes and carrots…a salad with Italian dressing…chocolate cake with pecan icing…a refreshing iced tea…

I am creating...another quilt for our daughter and son-in-law, mainly in the colors of red, black and gold with other colors to enhance what I am using…

I am going...start on some photos to upload and printed…

I am wearing...
blue jeans , red striped top and barefoot…

I am reading...
Quilters Companion, PSP book, several magazines…

I am hoping...that our Grandson’s MRI comes back O.K. and I pray he is feeling better and most of all what causes his headaches…

I am hearing…
the TV and the birds outside in the trees…

Around the house...we have hostas and yuccas growing everywhere…with flowers blooming and trees that we need to cut down…

One of my favorite things...at this time of the year is SWIMMING…

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week...
get ready for the 4th of July…make sure I have enough windows for camp…DVD”S for the evenings when not working and it is raining…

Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...

For Today

Outside My Window...the sun is out but I don't think for to long, as we are going to have thunderstorms in the afternon.

I am thinking
...what I have to get done today to stay on track...then to go out and enjoy the sun and do some weeding.

I am Thankful for...the rain that is providing our water in our home, for our garden and flowers, all the animals that live outside. Also for my husband and family to celebrate the holidays with.


From the Kitchen
...the 6" shrimp cooking with Old Bay seasoning on the grille, then added by a vegetables ( green peppers, onions, mushrooms ) followed by 2 steaks...so good!

I am creating...a new garden design that I once had when we lived in a small town, it was amazing that it feed a lot of our neighbors and family.

I am going...to the bank and make deposites, post office to mail invoices out, back home to layout some patterns and enjoy some red tea.

I am wearing...black jean capri's, with a blue top that has light blue dots and barefoot of course.

I am Reading...The Best Basic & Easy Recipes of Texas Cooking, I love to read cookbooks.

I am hoping...that what I have plan to get done this summer does get done before fall, that our new grandchild is born healthy and happy.

Around the House... sits lots of projects to start to finish...rooms to be cleaned.

One of My Favorite Things... is to read a book by the pool and have a refreshing drink beside me.

A Few Plans For the Rest of the Week... get my SUV inspected, play with our grandchildren, quilt a few things, and cut the grass.
