Tuesday SOL 2/17/15 - Remembering the serenity, beauty and warmth of last week in Florida

As I sit here looking out the window this morning, I see snow and feel the cold temperature.  We've been very fortunate this winter here in the Ozarks until yesterday.  Still not much snow, but wind and temperature has us shivering. 

I loaded my pictures from Florida onto my computer yesterday and thought today when we are all freezing that some pictures of flowers and peaceful settings were in order and will help all of feel better.  These were taken at the Bok Tower and Gardens (last week's slice).  Enjoy!












Hope you have a little more peace and warmth in your day!

    Ah, beautiful! Spring, summer ... you are not hiding much longer, are you?

    This is just what I needed to see before heading out in the arctic air and piles of dirty, white snow. What is that I see? More snowflakes! Now I know why spring is still hiding!!!

    Thanks for sharing! Beautiful! m.

    Yes, those photos brought some warmth into the day. It's making me long for the colors of spring and summer, plus the temperatures. Stay warm Judy, it sounds like it's getting colder by the end of the week. Brrr!

    Thank you. I need these to get my mind off of shoveling snow, single digit temperatures, and wind chills below zero. A ray of hope that things will improve.

SOL 18/31 - The Realtor's Came Yesterday

Image
Yesterday, the realtor's came to look at our house.  Our realtor only brings his own people thru, so it wasn't too bad.  Max slept thru most of it until they went upstairs where he was sleeping.  He barked briefly, came downstairs, got petted and pampered a little.  They walked thru the house, in the bedroom, up the stairs, down the stairs, looked things over, asked a few questions and 15 minutes later out the door they went. Our realtor told me he has had a couple of calls - one from a neighbor (being nosy) and another from a realtor who said this house is exactly what his clients are looking for, but they had just left the day before it was listed.  But could they put in an offer sight unseen?  Really???  Is this just a realtor's ploy to make us feel good or is it real?  No offer yet, but who knows.  It could happen. I breathed a sigh of relief.  Max looked at me as if to say "Is that it?  Can I go back to sleep now?". ...

Tuesday SOL 10/23/12 - Mr. Pockets goes to school

Image
Last week there was an article in our local newspaper that I found fascinating and wanted to share it with you.  This is a story about a dog who listens as children read out loud.  It's a new program in our school district and I'm proud that our district is using this innovative program to help students learn. Animals are so loving, caring and accepting, and the students love to have someone that they can read to and to be loved unconditionally. I hope you enjoy the article. http://www.baxterbulletin.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/201210200500/NEWS01/310200014
