SUNDAY MORNING GRATITUDE


So much to be grateful for on this Sunday morning.

Two weeks since the horrible of the fire next door
and
Stewart and Sandy
have maintained their humor
have been working their butts off in the heat
of their home
and
we have all managed to still love each other
even more
although we have even more of a
bond now that we
are living together
and
Stewart finds himself surrounded by women!

Last night his sense of humor was such
that he said he wished there was a program
on t.v.
about how to restore your home
on one of the many channels
cos' he would watch it!
Sandy on the other hand
says
"Oh well, just think
all new furnishings and while we're at it,
let's get rid of the ugly tile"
Yep
it's a "more than a make over"
over there
it's a
oh my in the making.
And speaking of
OH MY...

How bout' these handsome Godsons' of mine? OH MY...
All decked out in Purple, and now ready for summer, yep school is officially out! Bet the gratitude party is goin strong there.

And my goodness
I am wondering
how is
this morning treating you?
Are you ready to step UP for your day
and
rejoice
with the blessings of all that you are
and all that is around you?
Singing songs of gratitiude for all
that are out there
during times of
great stress
good or bad
and
times of
movement of emotion into action
and
resolve
May you have a joyous day
filled with
good times
good friends
good memories
and
wonderment

Best of all days to all who gather here
prayers are being sent on the suns' rays
and strength in healing ways

I am terribly remiss, friend; I have been so busy implementing changes in my own life that I have neglected to check in, and am only now learning of the fire. Talk about challenges ... Stuart and Sandy are pretty amazing folks. Then again, they are your neighbors♥

HOPE your Sunday is blessed, I am so grateful for mine. And grateful for your book and our day on the lake last year ~ I have not forgotten☺ Wado!

Good Morning Fl. and all of those wonderful people around and near and dear. Glad to hear of Sandy and Stu progress and new tile and stuff sounds good. It is a nice breazy day here and time for some outside sprucing up. There are changes everyday in my life some good and some not so good. The not so good I cast away. Blessings to our troops and their families. Blessings to all who gather here. Have a great day, shout, dance, laugh and enjoy.

I really am grateful for this day. It sunny, breezy and quiet. Dinner in the oven, and am off to take a nap. All chores are on hold for the moment. Enjoying my family of choice. A special thanks to ou dear friends who spent hours slaving over a hot stove and grill to cater our meal one night this past week. It was so appreciated, and so kind. Talk about good people. They are the best. Surround yourself with the best people thereare and every day brings warmth and kindness. The world is round! Proof is in the pudding.
