Trying once again...

I was finally able to get a few pictures posted. If you read my previous post, you will find out
what has been going on in my life.

These images are of a few things around my home that are reminding me of Valentines Day.

Enjoy your day! Much love to all!

Happy Valentine's dear friends...

I tried to upload some pictures but have been unable. Just a note to let you know that I am fine. There have been some major changes in my life. I sold my home and have moved into a one bedroom apartment. My home became too much for me to take care of financially. God continues to be so good to me. I love my new apartment and have a pretty rose and some begonias in pots on my patio. I will miss my beautiful cottage rose garden, but I have a real peace about everything. I know this was the right decision for me. My life has been much simplified and for that I am so thankful. I hope you all have a wonderful day tomorrow as we celebrate love for one another. God bless each of you richly!

Today, give a stranger...

one of your smiles.

It may be the only sunshine he sees all day.

Sending a little smile your way and hoping your day will be a good one!

For you, my friends, I wish...

comfort on difficult days, smiles when sadness intrudes, rainbows to follow the clouds,

laughter to kiss your lips, sunsets to warm your hearts, hugs when spirits sag,

beauty for your eyes to see, friendships to brighten your being, faith so that you can believe,

confidence for when you doubt, courage to know yourself, patience to accept the truth,

and love to guide your way!

Do you remember. . .

selling coke bottles for 2 cents each so you could buy penny candy?

wearing a skate key tied around your neck so you would always be ready for your roller skates?

cat's cradle and other string games?

Ma and Pa Kettle, The Three Stooges and Spanky and Our Gang at the movies?

playing paper dolls for hours on end. . .Yes, I am feeling a little nostalgic today, dear friends. Hope you have many happy memories from your "growing up days". God bless each and every one of you!

There are five things in life you cannot recover...

A stone...after it is thrown.

A word. . .after it is said.

An occasion. . .after it is missed.

The time. . .after it is gone.

A person. . .after they die.

Life is short. Break the rules. Forgive quickly. Kiss slowly. Love truly. Laugh uncontrollably. And never regret anything that made you smile! Enjoy life!

Love me tender. . .

While all the girls my age in the 1960's were going crazy over the Beatles, I was secretly in love with this guy!

Love me tender,

Love me true,

All my dreams fulfilled.

For my darling I love you,

And I always will.
