Love the Moss!


This picture was taken Saturday morning as Jen and I drove about trying to find good shots to take. I just love to see moss hanging all over the trees, it's so very beautiful. Makes me know for sure that I'm in the south. It's pretty when the trees are not so full of leaves and stuff because you can see it all hanging there looking so forlorn moving in the breezes. Then when summer is here how the gray plays peek-a-boo in amongst the greenery. It's absolutely wonderful for me to look at. Gives me great pleasure.
I believe the picture was taken from the west side of the down town Osceola County Florida courthouse.Today has been a quiet, easy day. Sunday's typically are rather nice. Not sure if we're going to get much bad weather or not tonight. It's been all north of us and I hope it stays there. Well, guess I'd best get busy with my other blogs. I'll write more later.

Glad Yesterday's Over


The day can start out pretty good and then suddenly turn bad. Tha'ts how yesterday turned out for my sister. Suffice it to say it might be time for her to find another way to use her teaching degree.
I took this picture yesterday and thought it was beautiful. I like the play of light and shadow on the greenery. Then to top it off the new leaves were this beautiful redish brown color and the shot came out quite nice. I have other shots also of this bush that I'll probably post here also.
Anyhow, I'm hoping today is a great day and one without tension. We all need it. As we journey through life we can and do live through tense times but it's always better to be able to curb the tension with calm, quiet and easiness. I'm hoping today will be one of those calm days.
I'll stop by again. Need to get to work.

Another Busy Day!


I'm posting early because I'm going to try and do some crafts tonight instead of sitting on the computer. I took this picture a couple of days ago and thought it was pretty. I like catching the raindrops on the leaves but his one had new leaves starting and I liked it.
I tried to upload my software program and found I didn't have a video card so now have to find one and install that before the program. Ugh! But it didn't spoil my day at all. I'm enjoying working on my company - makes me happy to know that people trust me to publish their manuscripts. Not making any money but it's a good feeling to help others reach their dreams. Maybe someday I'll earn some money. I've got to help my BFF get her stuff uploaded to FB, she's not understanding how to do it all. Hopefully I'll be able to do what she wants. She's like a sister to me.
Well guess I should get busy so I can help with supper. I'll stop by again.

Busy Day -- I'm Tired!


This was taken this morning. We woke up to a foggy few hours. I like how the fog makes the neighborhood look all cloaked. It's pretty.
I was supposed to work this morning on installing my new software package but my Authors kept calling needing help or information so that took my time. Going to try again tomorrow to install it.
I'm pretty tired tonight. It's hard to sit here and do this entry correctly. Too long at the computer. It's been a nice, quiet day and everyone was polite to each other. So I guess I found my happy spot for the day. Yay for me! I'll stop by again -- needing to get to bed before I fall asleep here at the desk. Maybe tomorrow I can get some new shots to post here. I have a few from today that would be nice here also. Till then.

Peaceful Sunday


This picture is one from my nephew, Michael. He painted it years ago in college, I think. He gave this one to my sister, Jen.The day is over and it was a good one. We spent it being leisurely and peaceful. My sister and I went out again to shoot some photos early this morning. I believe we only got a few but I think they are good ones - nature. Had breakfast and did some work online then went with my daughter to look for a book. Didn't find what we wanted but my hubby called and we picked him up from work and came home. Spent the rest of the day going through photos, watching TV and enjoying each others company.
I started to make out a master daily schedule for me beginning tomorrow but already it's not going to work because I have to take hubby back to the truck so he can deliver his load. So I'll need to retool it and make it work for me. I'm definitely going to try and upload my software program that I so badly need to typeset one of my author's manuscripts. She's waiting for me, patiently. So much work to do on my part.
I'm also working to change up my diet and exercise to loose this weight. Right now it's not successful for me. Well I'll stop by again tomorrow.

Mixed Up Day


Well Saturday proved to be a mixed up day. People just relaxed for most of the morning and then the afternoon seemed to lag on forever. I was busy in the house doing work so I was ready for a break.
My sister and I finished a craft project for my daughter and then went for a short ride to the Post Office to check my business box. My son called and we picked up my grandson to watch for a couple of hours. He was fun. My son came after a couple of hours and we had a nice visit. They've left now and it's quiet and peaceful here.
My hubby will be home sometime tomorrow. Yay! I do hope tomorrow is a pleasant day for all of us. I need to work on developing a scrapbook so that means going through my pictures which usually takes a long time because I have to constantly sort and put them on the table then take them down when I'm done so the table can be used properly. It's a time consuming job because you have to also design the page and that's not an easy task. I'm sitting here right now thinking maybe I should just categorize the photos first then begin putting ideas together so I can get the books started at least. I'm tired of buying the supplies and then never using them.
Guess I'd best sign off - I'm tired.

Pretty Palms


I love palm trees. Just looking at them makes me happier. The way the light reflects off their fronds and how they move in the wind so gently swaying. They appear to be fragile but are some of the strongest that can survive hurricanes. Enjoy the photo.
Had Dustin last evening and throroughly enjoyed his visit. He's such a good little boy. I love him so very much.
I'm hoping today will be relaxing enough and quiet enough that I can upload the new software program. I've got to be aware of everything it does so I load it correctly, therefore, I need quiet when it's being done. I also need to get the grocery list done as there's not any food here to eat. Been a long week. The sun is shining and it's nice outside so I'll enjoy being out of the house for awhile. Wanting to work on my books also this weekend. Time for me to get to the business of writing also. Can't just do TD business all the time because there is no money coming in. I'll chat again later.
