Little pieces of a full Day.
It was a long night here in East Texas. The work began around 8:00 p.m.
The road in front of our home is a Farm to Market road that usually carries a steady hum of quiet country traffic. Well....it came alive last night in a whole different way. The highway department began resurfacing it last week, and their work happens after the sun goes down. Last night, they were hard at it again.
We could hear the low growl of machines as they ground up the old pavement, followed by a steady rhythm of fresh asphalt being laid down. We lost a little sleep, however, I am thankful to have a smooth new road to drive on.

Sam and I both are enjoying a quieter morning today!

Yesterday afternoon, I stepped outside and grabbed the hummingbird feeders that have been resting all winter. I cleaned them out, filled them up fresh, and got them hung. Now, we wait for the buzzing of the hummers to come and bring life back to the yard.
Earlier in the week, the pool cleaning company came out and gave our pool a good cleaning. They also washed and cleaned the filters, so now we have a very clean pool...ready for the season. I love seeing the clear water...especially during the evening hours when the light is on.
Resurfaced roads, freshly filled feeders and clean water waiting for my swimmers. Life is Good!
Just some little pieces of a Full Day!
Oh, that pool is dazzling. How pretty it must look at night with the lights. And those hummers are sure to come around now that you filled the feeders. And thank you for cleaning that feeder - it's sparkling. I've seen some that were very dirty, and I often wonder how that can be good for the precious birds. I'm so glad those workers improved the roads near your home, and it will be a smoother path for you to drive on now. All these little things make our hearts happy, especially that hot cup of coffee on a quiet morning. I am having mine right now reading one of my favorite blogs. ; ) Have a dear Holy Week, Shug.
ReplyDeleteHere we have year-round hummers and several feeders. About every other day we clean them on the top shelf of the dishwasher and we make our own homemade sweet nectar for our little buddies! They're so used to us, they come looking for one of us, when they're feeder is empty. Personable little birds!
ReplyDeleteYour pool is beautiful.
I enjoyed this post Shug, the little things, they do make our days. I love hummingbirds. Ours will return in late May.
ReplyDeleteI love the photo of your pool.
Happy Easter Week,
Carla
Little things contribute to a satisfactory day.
ReplyDeleteThe pool looks so pretty and will soon be in high demand!
ReplyDeleteHope the hummers come soon. Aren't they a joy to watch?
Your pool looks so pretty!
ReplyDeleteA life full of blessings ...new roads, clean bird feeders and a beautiful pool all sparkly clean for the season! I am going to continue to pray for Sam's appointment on Wednesday...praying that the doctor will have good results to share with you.
ReplyDeleteAnd by the way, Psalm 73:26 on your sidebar is a favorite verse of mine.
