This seems like Friday!  Happiness seems to reside in this day that we call "Friday."  


I belive that the essence of Optimism is to not worry about what day of the week it is.....just focus on the achievements that you made yesterday and look for the thrill of what you can accomplish today!

The sweetest joy was given to me this very morning.  I had a meeting with some of the staff at Breckenridge village this morning, for Tammy's annual progress report.  It is so refreshing when you hear the leaders rave over how good Tammy is and how she is such a huge Blessing to so many people.  


Mother's day is this coming Sunday, and as I sat there in the meeting this morning, watching Tammy as she shared her feelings, {straight from her heart} I couldn't help but think of how proud her mother would be to know that her daughter has such a genuine soul.  I can only imagine the joy that would fill my sister's heart. 

No matter the number of sorrows that have come Tammy's way, she
remains to be the truest, most loving, most giving, young lady that I have ever known.  She is Blessed with strength and peace.  

Already today, my path of life has been filled with great joy and inspiration......just by having the opportunity to be a part of a Tammy's life!!!

Light Tomorrow with Today!

Prom 2018 has come and gone!  This was Emily's senior prom and her handsome date.....{my grandson}.....Tucker, accompanied her to this big event!


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And now, it's Monday!  

My jobs for today........return Tucker's Tux, Grocery shop, laundry and entertain Mylee Jo this afternoon!

The Sports Banquet is tonight, so I plan on staying home with Mylee, while the rest of the crew goes to the banquet.

I have more flower planting to do this some time this week.  This will complete the front yard and the sides.   The back yard is still to come!!  👀

Gosh....it's hard to believe that almost half of this year has come and gone.....  I hope the Summer passes by slowly!  

My friend Betsy has posted about a book on her blog...
"Prayer wasn't Enough"

I'm not a huge book reader....but this particular book sounds like such a good read!!  I plan to get a copy on Amazon!!

Hope you all have a super great day!

Once again.....my friends and I attended a beautiful luncheon today,  in honor of the ladies at Breckenridge Village of Tyler.  

This event is a fundraiser to help raise funds for BVT, which is a faith based community for adults with mild to moderate intellectual and developmental disabilities.  


I regret not taking pictures of all of the gorgeous tables!  It is absolutely amazing how beautiful each table is decorated.  

Such a special time for the ladies at BVT.   

I appreciate this place and I appreciate all of the hard work and dedication that is put in, to making this event wonderful.

The scouting program is changing it's name.....Dropping the word "Boy" and going with Scouts USA.     

What happened to the "Brownies" and the "Girl Scouts?"  What happened to the BOYS?     So, what happens now with Girl Scout Cookies?   I guess they could be called "Scout Cookies!"

The older I get, the less that I like change!!  I don't want to be the negative "49" year old {😉 wink 😉} who goes against change, but Jeez....some things just need to be left alone!!!!!



I prefer to ignore this cute little inspirational quote.  

I'm kinda like.......if things are good, Why change?

Social change is a biggie for me.  Not so much with 
 staying in touch with technology....Just this past week, my group of friends joined "Marco Polo."  A new App that has been around for about a year now.  If you haven't tried it, you need to do so....
We have had a lot of fun using this App.

The reason it's such a Biggie for me is because I truly do not understand "Millennials" and I don't understand their sometimes, selfish, impatient, entitled ways.

I think that one reason Change is hard to cope with is because 
CHANGE
is happening so fast these days.  Gosh....Change was once a very, very slow process!  

I really like the "Walton Family" kind of life style......

Church has changed, schools have changed, jobs have changed and our society as a whole has really changed.

The great thing is:

GOD HAS NOT CHANGED.....Same yesterday, today and Forever!!

Thank you Lord!!
