hanging out in the kitchen this morning...

Doug brought me this last weekend...
I have a thing for sock monkeys, you know...
I think I will name her Matilda...

I think this needs changed up...
going to be working on that...
printed off some more recent photos and we'll see what happens...

moved my funky bird over here....
I like it...

had to go over to the desk to print the photos out...
so took this while I was there...

and just some more junque around here...

you know, I get 97% of my stuff from rummage sales, don't you?

another 1% I make...
upcycling...
just some old shoe boxes that got prettied up to stick things in that I don't want anyone to see...

its hot...
its humid...
and it looks like rain but hasn't happened yet...
both of my guys are working today...
and I am still sitting here in my night gown...
its not noon yet, so no disgrace...

just did peanut butter and jelly for an early lunch...
(and it was so good)
and I am thinking of putting all the cats out and taking a nap...
that way I only have to share the bed with Bebe...
and no one walks on my face just when I get good and asleep...

been praying for the families of the 29 firefighters this morning...
seen an image that I just can't get out of my mind...
it was of all the hearst lined up in a row going down a highway...
so many of them were younger than my own kids...
heavy hearts always need prayer...
just to get through the days after...

feeling really blessed this morning for all that we have...
all the things that money cannot buy...
the important things...

just take some time today to whisper thank you...
it means a lot to Him...
;)

Tete, Hope you get a little rain...no one wants flooding. Yes, the funeral for the firefighters is so sad. Still hard to believe. I like that you re-cycle. I do that too. It's good for the world. xoxo,Susie

It's been super hot and muggy here, too. And the rain just won't quit! Love your covered shoe boxes, I wish I had kept some of mine!! Tilly (Matilda) needs some glitter:)

Yes when we feel blue for ourselves because of the trials we are facing we realize it is nothing compared to what others are facing..thanks for reminding me.
