March SOL 23/31 - My Morning Routine

How I begin each morning:

An early riser am I
Up at 5:00 without an alarm
Isn't retirement a charm
First to the computer to check messages
Then to my cozy chair to read devotions and pray
Off down the hall to spend 30 minutes with weights or a DVD
A cup of coffee calls my name
A hug and kiss from hubby to begin our day
A crossword puzzle
And a Voxer message to Michelle

God has blessed me with a new day.  What JOY that brings me!  What plans does He have for me today?

    You have a great routine! I alter my wake up time with what is happening in the day. If I'm to go to schools, I am up around 5. If it is a home day, I will make it until 6:30. Retirement is great!

    What a great routine. Each day is a gift from God and an exciting adventure because we don't know where the day will take us. My day usually starts around 6:00 because 3 beasties want to be fed.

    What a great morning ... however, mine would be better staring at 7 am and then all those other things! :) Wish I had the early morning bug, but I don't ... not yet anyway!

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
