HELLO!!!!!! How are all of you? I have missed you!!! Lots of catching up to do with you. As you know I have many chronic illness and have been having some problems with these, but I am on the right meds. and I am having better days and nights. As the week progresses I will be sharing more of what i have been doing. I am sooo happy to be back and be able to reconnect with all of my sweet blogging friends. Big Hugs...m...

everything looks good in a jar!

Friend Phyllis here, blogging for Mary who for some reason cannot sign into her blog.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to why I can and she can't? Would clearing cookies do it?

Speaking of sweets LOL...I thought I'd go ahead and share a find from Pinterest...this cupcake in a jar!

If you are like Mary and I...there are kids around since school is out. Not that us adults wouldn't eat this, huh?! and I had never seen this blog before...it looks like a popular one!

Stay cool, sisters!

Hello!!!!

Hello Everyone. Just wanted to let everyone know we are fine!!

Thank-you my friend Phyllis for the BEAUTIFUL new header and update for everyone.

We are still dealing with a lot of health issues here but are taking it one day at the time. We are enjoying each new day and thanking the Lord for our many Blessings!!

Here in Kentucky we have been engulfed in one storm after the other. We have been drenched in water. It got into our garage and bedroom. Our yard looked like a lake for days upon days. We went without Sunshine for days. It promises to be a nice week-end. We could use some porch setting-tea sipping weather.

As for my porch I have two trees one is 16 years old ( a gift from friends when my Dad died) & the other one is 12 years old ( a gift when my brother died). They are so tall now they are bending at the top. Then I have an old iron kettle with red and white inpatients in it. Then I have an antique nail keg with sweet potato vines in it. Then two big Boston ferns, and other hanging baskets, plus a big pot of collius.

You can set there on a hot Summer evening and forget all you cares.

I wish all of you a awesome week-end!!!!

sneak attack

hello friends of Mary!

this is Phyllis from Blissitydoodah and I came to put Mary a new banner on. shhhh! ;)

i see she hasn't blogged so i'll do that too and surprise her.

we had a phone conversation yesterday i think...and she talked about how she had gathered plants for her porch and i'll tell y'all ...her porch is like a little hideaway in the jungle...you can sit amongst the blooms and stay cool and undiscovered!

i'll let her tell you what flowers she has.

we went from chilly, chilly wet and rainy to sweltering sweaty heat here in southern Ky. ...this place is not for sissies LOL!

in comments, will you say if you have been to Ky. before?

what did you do here and did you like it?

stay cool, sisters!

Happy Good Friday to everyone.!!!!

I have been busy buying food for the pantry this week. Then cleaning it and then giving food to those who needed it. It has been a very long and very full week. It seems there are more needy each time we do this. I pray that we did not miss anyone who needed help.

What are you doing for Easter?? I am going to Sunrise Services and then to teach my Sunday School Class, then Church Services. Our Granddaughter is coming for Easter. I am cooking. This is something I am really looking forward too as I have not been able to do much of that since I have been sick.

We are having Chicken and Dressing, corn, deviled eggs, Lima beans, and strawberry shortcake.

I wish all of you a very Happy, Blessed Easter!!!!

Hey everyone. It is a beautiful sunshiny day here in Kentucky.

Yesterday I went to the food pantry and stayed my whole time, Then went the get a hamburger with my husband, After this we went to a flee market. Where I purchased three books. Guess what they are!!!! They are The Tale of Jemima Puddle-duck by Beatrix Potter and The Tale of Tom Kitten and The Tale of Benjamin Bunny all by Beatrix Potter. They are pop up books and are in near perfect condition. They are also hardback. I paid a whopping .50 a piece for them Talk about being happy. I just wished I could find the book about Peter Rabbit I so love it.

Then we went for ice cream. It was the best day I have had since Nov. I had sooooo much fun and so did my husband.

Today I went to have my hair permed for Easter. I have not felt like doing anything with my hair either. It has been a good day too.

I still have some pain at night that does wake me up. It is a thousand time better.

I am so thankful and blessed.

I will be around to visit all of you soon. Have a great week-end.

Hi My Friends! My computer is now up and running. It has been a nightmare. Please leave a comment so I can have your address we had to wipe the computer clean, all the way back to the beginning. I still have some issues the doctors are working with. It is going to take some time to get everything worked out. My feet are better but are still not letting me sleep all the way through the night. I think we will get there. There is light at the end of the tunnel. I am so thankful for each of you and all the love and prayers that you have sent for me. The e-mails, sweet comments, cards, phone calls and gifts. I love you all so much!!! Have a great and Happy week-end!!!!
