I’ll leave the light on for you

In the deepest deep of my heart I will let go
but..please know I really tried to roll that stone away for you
but you held on as if for dear life, you wouldn’t let go so…
so I did…not completely

I’ll leave the light on for you…should you need me
follow the light home

Everybody have you heard the Mockingbirds are back?

This sweet little baby is outside my window in the rose bushes chirping and calling for his momma. Momma is a tough bird, she flew over to him, fed him and put her head down and pushed him and he fluttered his wings. Thus begins learning how to fly.
Being a momma isn’t easy, it’s hard to know sometimes when to push and when to let them fend for themselves, it’s a tricky thing. I wish I was more like this momma bird.

This is the second baby it’s on the outside of the bushes so it’s hard to get a good clear photo of it. I have a front row seat from my window. Something interesting, I cut my rose bushes back this year so I wouldn’t have babies, but it seems they found the one place I didn’t prune. The momma knows I’m there because she came up to my window looked right at me and made the noise she makes to warn me. 🙂 I smiled and decided to leave her to her mothering. 🙂 Happy Saturday, may it be a chipper and chirpy as mine. Ha

Happy Friday-Happy Day-Forget-Me-Not

Happy Friday Sweet Friends to You

Oh Happy Day to You…Do you feel it? Deep inside your soul? I feel sometimes I’m so Happy and it’s nothing that happened to make me so…I’m just happy all by myself…Forget-Me-Not Sweet Soul

I felt you might need some sweetness today ~ღ~

Pruned

Have you ever felt like you have been pruned by The Master Gardener? All the dead stuff cut away, or perhaps the not so fruity parts of your life pruned and cut away so they can bare more fruit ? Well I have and so has my garden! I was thinking today how sometimes we have to cut away what seems to the eye a good product but pruning allows for newness to grow and everything looks different and feels different because it is.

My butterfly bushes are going crazy this year. I really cut them back and they are blooming out of their spaces this year. 🦋 Come on butterflies. 🦋💜 I’m hoping for the same in my life. 🙏🏼

Mom do you like my hair?

Alex came out of the bathroom and asked me if I liked her hair. It’s been so hot I decided not to straighten mine, I looked at her I said, “Hi Skip.” She said, OMG we look like Grammy.” Yep 😂 We were channeling Skip today. 😂😂

I’ve always looked like my Mom which I love. It’s so funny to me that Alex looks like me, like I look like my Mom.

Here’s me without sunglasses and my hair curly. I don’t know why I thought that was funny but Alex sure got a kick out of it. We both called each other Skip. 😂

And I thought I learned by now

And I thought I learned by now…and I did
When I find myself in same familiar circumstances
Going round and round on this fair ride

And I thought I learned by now…and I did
I can’t stop myself from watching and looking
I tried not to look, but it’s best for me to see

And I thought I learn by now…and I did
I don’t know who I was back then
Now my heart is older and I know it can break

And I thought I learned by now…and I did
Looking sometimes doesn’t hurt like it did
However that familiar sting reminds me that
I learned by now…and I did

I won’t forget

Something for You

I don’t mean beautiful in looks but beautiful
inside your heart & soul. I heard you loud and
clear and realized there wasn’t anything
I could do to help you but to send these quotes
I made back in 2013.


Feelings are fickle and sometimes we need to sleep and wake up
renewed and refreshed. Be proud of yourself and thank your body
for getting you this far in the journey. Today was just a day,
nothing more nothing less. Just a day. Tomorrow is another day
and things always look different in the morning.

I always believe in good things…even if the only good thing was
awesome coffee I’m thankful for that one simple thing. Go outside
and look at a tree, I mean really look at it. Maybe get outside
yourself and your own thoughts and mind because if you stay there,
they will drive you crazy, if you let them. So please hear my heart on
this…life is good, so very good. You are part of my life and you are good
and loved and You Matter To Me.

Color of the sky


People talk about it baby
The colors of the sky
Are in your eyes
I don’t even have to try
I tell you…
Sometimes stormy
Sometimes blue
Sometimes green
Golden in sadness
Holding your dreams
All the colors I see
Remind me of you
Today I see orange
Your favorite color
I smile

Rules of the rain

Did you know the rain has rules?
Well…when you live in Oklahoma you quickly
Learn how to spot tornadoes and also
Awesome cloud shots sprinkled with rainbows

The right side of the rainbow


The left side is very faint but it’s there along with the yellow storm sky.


I love a storm.
