~Great Start for the Week~

Great starter for the week, rain.. and tomorrow

rain again.. I heard on the weather channel that

out west its snowing butt deep to a giraffe and

they say we may have more snow.. I look outside

and have been enjoying the ladies daffys across

the street.. I may plant some this year around

that tree out there, that would be so pretty next

spring.. I have some shoots coming up out of the

ground next to the back door by the gas meters.

I think its peonies.. I am pretty pretty sure that's

what they are, and boy they will sure be pretty

when they bloom.. only thing is they don't last long.

My mother had 3 peony bushes all a different

color.. beautiful things...

The lady across the road, I believe, has a twin sister.
I looked over there the other day and for a minute

I thought I was seeing double ! :-) They were dressed

alike and are identical... I don't think they both live

over there, but I'm not sure. Out by the end of her

driveway is one of my favorite bushes, a forsythia,

I had one by my driveway in Elkhart.. It is so pretty

when it blooms and they do for a long time.. Growing

up we had a flowering almond, now THAT was just

beautiful when it bloomed.. just solid pink flowers.
My Penny is very talented. She can crochet and make

some of the most beautiful things.. I had told her

my sister has some crochet things for her and that

she would bring them next time she came up.. she had

forgotten them the last time.. I had told Penny this

and she brought that gorgeous doily for my sister. I

will.. MAYBE.. :-) give it to her when she comes.. :-) I

know you read this Bev.. so SHHHH honeygirl :-) Bev

is my niece and my sisters daughter... special girl..a

a wonderful daughter AND niece..:-)
I have 3 others that Penny made for me on the back

of the couch.. but a different design..mine is the pine

apple, Shirleys is a pinwheel.. I don't have the pin

wheel... YET.. Penny made a tablecloth for her sister

that I would LOVE to have.. its something like the

one on my desk that a dear friend gave me when I

was in the nursing home and I wanted a tablecloth

for my bed tray..and she brought me that.. Needless

to say I was VERY happy to get it.. Its one of my

favs.. I'm very old fashioned and I like the froo

froo stuff.. :-)

I did a stupid when I was taking those pictures so I

thought I would tell you so you realize that although

I AM PERFECT 99% of the times, that 1% catches

me once in a while.. I took the photos from the window

here on the side of my desk. Next to my desk is a

floor lamp.. I rolled up to the window and my tire hit

the bottom of the lamp, the lamp tilted and guess where

it hit? :-) It smacked me right on top the head ! :-)
No damage of course :-).. never a dull day.. :-)

We made some chicken faijtas today, smells good, its out

in the kitchen waiting for me.. So- 3 guesses where I'm

headed? :-) Time for my GORGEOUS WEEBLE "g'day,

g'day", post and EAT :-) wanna come for lunch? :-)

Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear? love ya and thanks..

ALways, Lois ****

"God Bless You" is my prayer today,

I'm honored to call you "friend".

I pray the Lord will keep you safe,

Until I write again..
