some simple joys

Outside My Window  I see: the sunshine and the sun getting ready for bed///// I am thinking....teenagers never stop eating..... and or talking I am thankful for.... memories of the way we were-----
From the kitchen I can smell .... nothing as the fan in the window is on I am wearing.... my favorite pj s  again I was creating....spaghetti for supper I am going.... to watch TV for a while
I am reading....  the Mitford series again   = only on book one
I am hoping....  the house will cool down by bed timeI am hearing.... Ashley on the phoneAround the house.... I did some cleaning but not really dusting much yet....... ((((((((((((((((((((()))))))))))))))))

hot day in our town

• a hot day WITH SUN SHINE  in our part of the world 
• Dogman is regretting that he has to wait for his haircut, sitting in front of the fan
• with a wet wash cloth on his belly-
• Ashley is not moving- far- very fast
• and Meme is just doing small chores that will not cause her to overheat
• we are still sharing tears and laughter among the memories- I am so glad we have  joyful memories- papa David was a joy maker......
• hung my towels on the line he made me a few summers ago
• yesterday we had a visit from Miss Sidney
• we are trying to find a supper that requires little heat
• have a ''fan-tastic day and I will be back soon
• huggles me- Meme who thanks God for giving me a good husband
• THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD

Friday thoughts

• today was a lighter blue day
• partly because my brother called and said
• take the next two or three days off
• from doing things and trying to do things
• I know it sounds strange to need someone
• to give you permission to just ''be'' rather
• than getting things done...
• I gave Miss Ashley a hundred dollars to go get
• her and I some groceries so
• I am not sure what we might be eating--LOL
• I just was not able or ready to be in a grocery store
• as we are a small town I would see too many folks
• I know and I am not ready to really talk out loud yet
• Miss Sidney came to see Meme today and to tell me
• that she loves me- we could not hug too much as she
• managed to get a sun burn but it was just so nice
• to sit and look at papa David's picture
• and just imagine what he is doing-
• she picked out a picture of papa and says that she knows
• that is how God made his new body.......
• it is so simple to a child
• well, must go and see what the Miss Ashes did bring home---
• what ever it is, Meme will not complain
• as she saved me some heart ache today
• huggles Meme
• "I give thanks to my God always for you because of the grace of God
  that has been given you in Christ Jesus, for in every way you have
  been enriched in him, in speech and knowledge of every kind--just as
  the testimony of Christ has been strengthened among you--so that you
  are not lacking in any spiritual gift as you wait for the revealing of our
  Lord Jesus Christ."  ~1 Corinthians 1:4-7
  
  

blue in the day

Today was a blue day as I have to get the business end done with papa's passing------it is hard to cancel things that were a part of him =

It was sunny here but we have heard rumors of rain for the long weekend - (Canada)

I have so much to be thankful when i think back on our marriage- papa David was such a kind and gentle man with a mischievous since of humor- his eyes did twinkle-

I have been cleaning the house and find so many special touches he left behind.......

Miss Ashley is doing ok- she is wiping a lot of my tears away for me..........she was so good to her papa- she did not miss a day of his illness------pray for her as right now she is angry at God even though she knows that God loved papa= I know that this will pass .........I know that God knows best...and I know that He is holding us up right now....

soon I will share some of papa's stories again- especially the day he left his earthly home to be with his Shepherd-

thanks for praying for us-they are a gift that I/we need huggles Meme

starting over

I need to start blogging again even though I am nearly speechless with sorrow- but it is

a sorrow with hope- I am doing ok as my days go but nights are long....when papa David was sick I learned to sleep with one ear open.........and now I have to re-learn my sleeping patterns-

I do think I will try to start sharing some of the joy moments of my days for now until I can write again :

so for today I will share some- there will be more but it is only noon here

1. sunshine coming into the living room making my corner bright

2. Miss Ashley got up before noon- LOL

3. Dogman is happy to hear he has a hair appointment even if it is not for another month

4. my wash/laundry is all caught up- last week was a washless week

5. where ever I go in my house I see a little touch of papa which gives me joy memories

time to go for now- pray for us as me as I walk a new road..
