Hello and how are you doing?

Well it's time pump some positive energy into the internet!  Here are somethings that are making me happy.

It rained overnight and it was the first good rain in months.  It's a relief since most of us have water restrictions these days.  I've not been so worried about the flowers but have been concerned about our trees and bushes.  Let's hope this is the start of a wetter season!

My niece and her family live a few hours away but two weeks ago we had a nice visit from her and her 2 year old daughter.  We did an early Christmas celebration and Remi loved all her gifts.  She was especially happy with her new doctor kit.

We all received nice physicals and pretend shot from Dr. Remi!

She certainly made us all feel better!

Sewing!

I'm doing a lot of sewing and have even used up a lot of scraps making table runners for family and friends.

Lana asked what are we cooking for a family dinner?  Well my family loves lasagna so that would be an easy one.  For Thanksgiving I'm making a lot of the meal including potato filling--my husband's favorite!

Wishing you a safe and happy day!

An Unexpected Flower Friday

Surprise!

It's an unexpected Flower Friday!

Robin shared an unusual blossom...a daffodil that surprised Robin and is called "Good Cheer".  Robin also said it has a wonderful fragrance!

Robin also saw a tiny violet peaking out!  What a nice find!

Impatiens are the most tender annuals here in Pennsylvania.  I had a volunteer on my patio and just didn't have the heart to pluck it.  Amazingly, despite frosts and 20 degree weather on Wednesday, this flower has endured!

So on that note, I wish you a safe and happy weekend!

How are you doing? 

So again it's been a while since I wrote.

Again I've been caregiving.

But it seems I may have a little break so here I am.  LeeAnna who initiated the Thursday post asked for Autumn movies but to be honest I don't know any.  LeeAnna, you are going to have to go with a winter to spring movie.  Watch Enchanted April.  I love that movie so much,  I could hug it.

If you do need a diversion, I've only recently started watching YouTube and listed a number of channels I enjoy at my other blog (here).  Another good channel features "The Repair Show" from Britain.  When I am restless or can't sleep, I put that show on and it calms me.

When I do have a little free time these days, I sew or clean out the garden.  Lucky and I continue to do a lot of walking and it's hard to believe but he's now been a part of our family for a year!

I need to catch up with everyone's blog and am hoping to do that this weekend.  

Take care and have a safe and happy day!
