Good Morning and Welcome to Sunday the 10th day of January, 2016.
A welcome sign this morning the sun is actually rising and the sky is somewhat clear this morning.
This winter the sky has been overcast so much that we miss seeing the sun shine.
With not having the sun shine it is actually depressing.
I know many people suffer from a type of depression when the sun does not shine from the lack of light.
Today we are good.
Yesterday was an awesome day my baby, my darling, my daughter came for a visit and surprised me and Alvin by bringing both Elton and Miss Penny along.
Our dear Penny is not the same energetic bouncy vocal girl she once was but that is what a serious disease will do to one.
Mr. Elton is in pretty good health other than his hearing and that makes for some interesting moments.
He cannot hear us and thinks we cannot hear him.
There are some things about getting old that I am not looking forward to …..
It was so great to have them all here with us and we ENJOYED IT SO MUCH.
The walls are still smiling and the air remains full of song this morning.
I made pancakes for we girls and afterwards we made jewellery.
Well actually my daughter made jewellery and I practiced making flowers.
I came up with the idea kind of in a day dream about making petals …. flowers.
Then ladies can place a drop of an essential oil on the flower ….. and it will be like having flowers with you.
Obviously you cannot just start making “flowers” to be used so it will take some practice.
I did make two and they look pretty good for the first time.
My daughter left me some clay so that I can practice.
I can tell you it is so relaxing and FUN.
In between our fun … I took a run (borrowed her car) to the grocery store.
It was a great day.
I felt like a million dollars with my family here with us.
I even managed to slip in a couple of loads of laundry throughout the day and early evening.
Alvin and I curled up on the sofa and watched a couple of movies that I had recorded and had the most relaxing evening.
The best Saturday ……
So on this Sunday there will be more laundry in my future.
I also want to call some folks and see about booking a tea party or two and secure some orders.
So phone calls also in my future.
So happy to see the sun shine.
The temperature is supposed to warm up so I can go for a walk with Mr. Alvin.
It has been a couple of very cold days so we did not go.
He did go in the back yard to bury his chew treat from time to time and take a run about.
I hope that you have a lovely Sunday ….. filled with a bit of work and relaxation time and above all LAUGHTER.
Happy Sunday.
Time for toast and coffee and perhaps banana to share with Mr. Alvin …. he is waiting.
Also share coffee with my neighbour ….. she buys the beans, I grind them and make coffee for us …. I make her a special one …. am I not the luckiest person.
I believe most days.
Special Hello to: everyone who reads my blog, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Always, Carol and Alvin
