~ Thank You Jeannette ~

               

I've been so caught up in things here that I forgot to say thank you to Jeannette.  She was kind enough to send spring my way.  It's been wonderful.  Friday the sun was shining brightly in the sky and more then once I looked up and smiled at the empty deep blue.  The only thing I could see was the large glow of the sun and the bright white trails of planes that had recently flown by.  The birds were welcoming in the nice weather with beautiful songs.  Squirrels ran and played.  Up and down fences.  Some even stopped to chomp on something they found.  Maybe a lost nut from before the snow fell.  As the sun beat on my face it made me relax.  The warmth was so peaceful and so welcome.  It wasn't extremely warm temperature wise, but it did get into the 50's.  The snow was melting pretty quickly and there were puddles instead of ice in the low spots.  It was great to see the reflection of the sky as the water made its way to the drainage section.  I think my insides smiled as well as my outside.  It helped ease the pain in my heart. 

 

Today it was about 50 degrees by 8 in the morning.  As I was making my morning coffee my son came over to do laundry.  I never heard him open the door and he scared the shit out of me as he was beside me saying good morning.  He stopped on his way home from work and ate some breakfast as his clothes went thru the various cycles and then went in the dryer.  He told me he had no clean boxers and it was time.  I was thrilled to have him here.  He made me smile and had me laughing.  It was nice and just what I needed.  It did rain a bit early in the day and a fog settled.  The warm air hugging the snow on the ground was the cause.  Even though it wasn't as sunny as it was yesterday the warmth was welcomed by all.  So Jeannette, thank you again you timed it perfectly!!

 

I played with some different water graphics.  A touch of spring and a calming feel.  I love the effect!!  Looking forward to a restful day tomorrow.  I can pretend it's Saturday ::grin:: as I took off Monday.  I left work early on Friday to have my car inspected (a must in NYS) so it will be a nice extended weekend.  Monday I will spend some time with my son.  I can't believe he will be 21... I remember the day so well it's hard to believe it was that long ago.  I guess one never forgets tho. 

 

Going to go crawl in bed and get some sleep.  I do want to thank everyone for the kind words, the good vibes, and the prayers.  We all appreciate it here.  In the past I've seen several sites set up where you can light candles and leave a note.  I will look around tomorrow and see if I can find one.  Anyone familiar with one?  I'd appreciate you pointing me in that direction.  Hope everyone had a good day today and I wish you a beautiful Sunday.  Those of you in the states, don't forget to 'spring forward.'

 

Hugs
