2026!!! Geez!!! Today is a good day to have a good day. I am soooo thankful for all my blessings. I have had to overcome so much. For all the pain and challenges that have been my road in life, I have been the greatest challenge! Today WILL BE a great day…I can say that and then here comes an attitude. You know it’s bad enough when you get old and older and you are constantly talking to…

Ya’ll know we got a rescue dog, a puppy. Seems like I spend a lot of time playing now. Rather carefree, yet stimulating. Amazing how like God, they just love. They find no fault with us. Well… I have to retract that. That gal’s got a temper!!! She goes into attack mode if she doesn’t get her way. Being firm, then she goes in her crate and all hell breaks loose.

Have you noticed on fb lately that people are announcing their MONTH LONG, now Birthdays? So yesterday there was also a beautiful colorful announcement how in Poland, Names Days are celebrated much grander then a birthday. That a family would gather, have dinners out and of course gifts and cards and flowers. I enjoyed that muchly! Even my Godfather would call my mother for a dinner date just for…

Just when I was on top of my flower plots…everything cleaned up and refreshed, I asked Silly Sally if she knew where I could buy these fancy flower pots for my patio. Yes. we can MAKE THEM…in the spring. That gave me time to find them thrifting. What a fun party with 4 of us! Never done that before. I was the newbie! My pots are all going to be outside in the rain, with an occasional sunny day…
