May 22, 2024 @ 20:44 It turned out to be a gorgeous day outside, and I was able to spend quite a bit of time out there. Warm but not hot, and breezy - perfect! Pete had his PT today. I picked around in the garden, cleaned up after the dogs, got the mail…ate leftovers so didn’t have to cook. Did a LOT on my sites (as you will see from the list below!) as well as file mgmt stuff and moderating, and also some researching about a few ideas I’m tossing around in my head, to see if any of them are feasible or not. And of course what little Pete needed, he is doing most things for himself now, his PTist told me not to baby him so I don’t…though I’d like to! So I’m going to end it here, and contemplate the meaning of life for the rest of the evening, and will see you in the morning. Tomorrow will be a busy day so I doubt that I will be as prolific as was today but we shall see - at least you’ll have Don’s guest post to look forward to :). Sleep well in Jesus, my friends❣️🥱🙏

To be esteemed by God…the thought brings me to my spiritual knees - what a thought! For those who are proud, and mock His word..that is heart-breaking to me… Anyway I got started on this in the morning again - WOOHOO!!! Was delighted to see all the nasty storms didn’t hurt my baby plants at all although one of them looks a tad wilty. I am hoping with this morning’s sunshine he will perk up quickly. Going to try to stay off my legs again today and rest my spine…I saw “try” again because that hasn’t worked out very well for me so far hahaha! I did go out with the dogs, and got photos of all of my baby plants, may put them together into a collage or something and post, but trying to only put up the bigger photos once a week or so, so that the changes will be more obvious. I might go out to weed a little if it isn’t too hot…no, no, no, nevermind that thought, I have to rest my legs and spine today… I have Pete’s soup ready in his soup maker so when he wakes up I just have to turn it on, and I have some vegetables to add to it in the bowl. Trying to make sure he has a good protein portion every day as he heals, and I do have some collagen “shakes” on order for his healing as well…I’ll look in his freezer and see what he has meat-wise as beans aren’t on the menu yet, not until he can get around more quickly. Those are my plans for the day, and the keyboard if I can, and bird cages if I can. Oh, and please say a prayer for Maisie, she’s pretty logy this morning and didn’t want her breakfast though she did eat it once I mixed it with a spoonful of canned food. (They love that Evanger food!) Anyway, I will see you later, friends, have a terrific Tuesday❣️🌱✝️

🌱 For the first time yesterday “I” planted flowers! Well, I actually put some flower seeds in dirt a couple of weeks ago too…but the flowers are still hiding inside the seeds. They look like pots of dirt and my imagination doesn’t see them as flowers yet. But yesterday was like a beautiful dream, but real! How I never knew what fun and how satisfying this is, in my 67 years of life, I can’t imagine. But now I know.

A few days ago our helpers, J&E, and I went to the nursery and I bought some flowers in my color scheme, which is Sunrises and Sunsets. I am picky - I don’t like pointy flowers that look like Cruella’s fingernails, for example. I’m not a fan of purples, or whites. Just as a couple of examples. So I chose carefully, always keeping my colors in mind.

Yesterday they helped me repot them, making most into little arrangements. Who knew how fulfilling that could be??? I do now… 🌱
