this and that

Here it is.....Spring Break!  I love having all my babies at home and out of school...


Unfortunately, it's not going to be one of those Gorgeous...full of sunshine...kind of Spring Breaks.  The latest weather reports are forecasting lots of rain for our area!   


I guess there is no better time to get out all the supplies and do a little Spring Cleaning. 

Our home could use a little of this too.   Even though I'm home everyday.....sometimes I find myself guilty of junking up the place.   

Closets need to be cleaned and I will be so excited to put away all the Winter clothing! In my opinion, it has been (Shorts) weather for quite some time now!

Wouldn't it be sweet to live in a place like Hawaii where you only have a need for one season of clothing?  No changing out the different seasons of clothes??

This would be SWEET!!

Baseball season has started!  This is my favorite sport!  Not only do I love the game (and watching my grands play) but I love the outdoors.   It's awesome to sit outside and watch the game!!

Where have all the bloggers gone? I can't figure it out.  Is everyone just kinda tired of blogging, or is life too busy for us all?  I love blogging...but I can sure tell that my followers have dropped a bit.   

I love visiting with everyone and keeping up with all of my far distant friends.   I'm thinking that Facebook has taken over.  I understand....because it is easier, but I just don't think it's as personal as blogging.


I'm hoping to get back into my more inspirational style of blogging.   

Hope all of you my friends....have a super, wonderful day.

Hugs from Texas

Happy March!!!!   


I'm jumping for joy to have March roll upon the calendar.   February was a very long month and while a day is a day.....the month change sure brings hope of things moving forward.

Today is election day here in the great state of Texas.   Sam and I have already voted (thank goodness) and one can only hope that each citizen of the United States will do their duty and go out there and VOTE.



There have been quite a few days lately when I have had to repeat over and over again.....Psalm 46:10.

"Be Still and know that I am God"

When we face difficulties or when those we love come up against a constant flow of what seems to be negative energy......it becomes very challenging to understand the depths of this scripture.  

"Be Still and know that I am God" means that we must Trust God to bring us to that sweet place of harmony in knowing that God is in control.   

Any detour that God leads us on, is a path to bring out the good in  us.   It doesn't always mean that what we are longing for is going to lead to more closed doors.......it just sometimes means that God needs to get our attention before HE can move us further in the direction of HIS will for our lives.

There are two great wisdoms in this scripture....

ONE...."BE STILL"  This means to gain PEACE.  Rest in God and be willing to listen to HIS clear direction.

TWO......"Know that I am God"
God wants all things to be for our good.  HE loves us and trusting HIM brings us to a place of complete harmony.


Hope you enjoy this beautiful day......

Shug....
