WINTER IS BACK

Yes, from Spring to winter in just a few hours. Wow. After all it is March and that can be unpredictable. Blueberry pancakes for breakfast. My "sweetie" makes them every Saturday morning with blueberries from our two little bushes. I freeze them and count out 30 each time. Six pancakes with five for each pancakes. You would think I have nothing else to do. Like I said I am made for little things, but BLUBERRY PANCAKES are BIG things. O well I will find something else to do this day. I hope. Penny is doing good.

PENNY UPDATE

Penny is better. Last night when I put her in her room (the laundry room) she jumped on her food for the first time in two days. Kept is down and acted sort of normal this morning. I do not understand what was wrong because the Vet checked her out real good and could not find the reason for it all. I guess it does not matter the reason--she seems o. k. now.

SUNSHINE

Penny is better. The Vet could not figure her out. Blood test o. k., no temp. Mystery Cat. She still will not eat or drink but seems better. He fed her with a tube. I guess she liked that. He said just wait and see and let him hear from her today. I hope she does not end up like Linda's cat (Slick).

Very worried

Penny, my very spoiled cat, is sick. I am taking her to the Vet. I feel so sad when she can not tell me what is wrong. Hasn:t eaten or drank water in two days. I really love that cat.

LITTLE THINGS ARE IMPORTANT

I decided a long time ago that God created me to do "little things". Yesterday as I entered McDade's this pretty little white haired lady approched me as if she was waiting for me. She began to tell me she was in a lot of pain and was going in the hospital for help this morning. She told me all about what she thought caused it and why it happened. She talked non stop for a long time as I picked up tomatos and other stuff. I said very little--just listened. I thought she was very old. 78 and since I am 82 that seemed young . I kept moving on and told her I would be thinking of her this morning while she was in the hospital. I felt like I helped her because she finally moved on smiling. Little things mean a lot. Right?

CLOUDY DAY

You should have seen the Canada geese yesterday. I think they were courting!!

at least they were showing off. They were playing "Watch me skidd on the water" They looked like an airplane landing and trying to see how much splash they could make. One would come from one way and the other from the other way. Sounds like I need to find something to do? O well it did not last long. Excuse me--I have to get ready for Church.

RAIN RAIN RAIN

Thank you Lord for the rain. As we were coming out of Kroger yesterday, it started to rain. With me holding two coffees, Truman pushing the cart and holding a huge umbrella over us we were laughing and enjoying it all. How great to have a husband you can laugh with about little things. He is truly my best friend. We always exchange valentines and this morning mine from him was so sweet while mine to him was very funny and private. Have a good day!!!!!!

Sweetly be, Betty

TGIF

I like weekends. Because usually something special happens. We will see. BALLET MAGNICAT will dance for our Sunday family night at our Church. That should be special. Kathy T.'s father is in our Sunday School class.

COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES---AND COLOR THE LEAVES PURPLE--dot
I had lunch with my sweetheart yesterday at his Civitan Club. {Sweetheart Day} How sweet is that? Be creative today. Buy a color book and color it the way you want to. Canada geese again this morning on the lake. The Lake has diamonds sparkling in the sun. How beautiful. I know I am wandering this morning but hey, I am 82 and counting.

GOOD DAY

Lord, thank you for the little wonders in my life that are shadows of your glory--Andrew Attaway

Canada geese floating on the glassy lake, church friends this morning, lunch at the Piccadilly, buttercups blooming madly in our own yard, and warm weather which promises Springtime is near.

This is the day the Lord hath made-let us rejoice and be glad in it. The sun is shinning and it is cold as February is new. More cold and hope for a "little" snow this month. Ground Hog saw his shadow {somewhere)

SAD DAY

We sold the Motor Home. It really made Truman sad. He loved it and felt as if a part of him is gone. But we have many wonderful memories from over the years. It was getting too hard for us to do. A young couple bought it. They have two young kids. They will give it a good home. I divided up my flowers and now have vases all over the house. I love flowers and it was the first time flowers were put in my Church in my honor. I loved it. Later on the 'MIRROR CAPER'
