Guess I will just enjoy my cat--and a wee bit of wine--


 Good morning--It is Wednesday, May 6th--and  we are up and at-er--This morning I meet Dave at 9-30am--BREAKFAST__hard to get out of a warm bed , and put your feet onto a cold floor---  I always run downstairs to turn up the little  fire place---then run back upstairs and jump back onto bed, till my feet warm up--and then--I HAVE TO GET UP AGAIN!--crazy!!! 
Son#2 called also  to see if I was up--Sushi was up already-She likes to cozy up beside me when I jump back into bed--and then--- I HAVE TO GET UP AGAIN--- CRAZY!!What one does in the morning eh?--
                
                Below-- Words I wish I had thought of--
#1.A wise person knows that she cannot know everything.
#2.Remain calm
#3. Live in the present
#4. Encourage self-sufficiency
           
                         and---  Blasts from the past
                        Did you ever see so much snow??

            Allison's son-in the dog cage-- Tyson looking on--
Below--Fred holding "Biggy"---  the cat that I found on the garbage  Dumpster, one extremely cold winter                                         day--

            Hard to see the photo below--
 and I cannot make it larger-- Son#2 was camping out in  Elliot Lake with his family, plus cousins
                                Jacob with his cousin Ethan
                I hope your day goes well-
-Remember, "There is always a way"-
    Look at things in a new way--Anticipate trouble---and if you do not seize an opportunity, someone else will!--- Now, Get out there and  be a great part of "to-day"--Everyday can be extraordinary!

  1. Good morning, Lynda! You are up and at it this morning! Enjoy your breakfast. I hope your weather is nice again! Only high 55 and cloudy in Ohio. You have rescued so many animals. You are such a wonderful mom and grandma to all! Hoping you enjoy your trip and Regency stay this week. Can’t wait to see what you think. I know you will love your time with Matt, too! Hugs!

  3. Happy Wednesday Lynda,
    Nice you are meeting Dave for Breakfast. I guess you won't be able to do that if you move out of the area, but it sounds like you will meet new friends to lunch with.
    Love all the blast from the past pics, especially the one with "Biggy" and Fred. What a beautiful cat. He kind of looks like my "Rowdy" except Rowdy is gray and white but just as big.

    Have a wonderful Wednesday!
    Hugs,
    Jackie

  4. Good morning, sis.

    It's a cloudy day today and we have a freeze warning! Must get out the winter coat again.

    I enjoy looking at your photos! Yes, I have seen that much snow. I was born and raised in Michigan and live in Minnesota. Biggy is a tuxedo cat like my Lucky...and beautiful!

    I know you will enjoy your breakfast with Dave. When you move (if you do), you will miss that and him. There are always new friends, though.

    I am waiting to hear from the dermatologist what he wants to do with that huge thing on my shoulder. An assistant took 15 photos yesterday for him to look at.

    I am about to eat my breakfast. I will be back later, as always. {{{HUGS}}} Love, Maggie

  5. Good morning Lynda, you sound quite happy this morning. Do you have a tile floor or wooden floor in your bedroom? You mentioned putting your feet on a cold floor. Maybe get a carpet runner with backing so it doesn't skid and cause you to fall. Dave seems like a good man and I'm sure he enjoys eating and conversing with you as much as you do with him. I might make a small suggestion that for this trip to the Regency, you take only Lopez. Remember, this will be as new to him as it is to you, and he might bark a lot when you're out of the room. It may not be a problem since most of the other residents will probably be out of theirs as well.
    Tomorrow is your big day to begin your trail run. I hope it helps you in making a decision whether or not to move.

    1. The floor upstairs is that fake wooden strips--nice--but cold on the morning early--Yes, I have the cleaning Lady coming in to feed Sushi--It would never be good to take her--'fraid a cleaner etc or maid might let her out by mistake--Hopefully I can move there--in time--maybe not now but one day-- Lynda-think I wud miss Dave--LOL--

  6. It's Kathy. Enjoy your breakfast. I think my favorite meal to eat out is Breakfast! I used to make us a nice breakfast every so often but with all the surgeries that practice has gone out the window! Love all the photos. Biggie was a beautiful cat! There are days when I get up to take care of Daisy, turn up the heat and then get back into bed too! I'm so ready for Spring - it's very cold and windy here today. I went to Pilates and thought I'd blow away before I got in the door!

  7. Hope you had fun @ breakfast. And I feel the same. I get things warmed up, go back to bed for 15 min. and out again.

    LOVE the blasts from the past.

    Here’s to a good Wednesday.

    hugs and blessings

  8. Hi Lynda, enjoy your "vacation." LOL. Do you have a tablet? I imagine so, doesn't everybody these days? If so, please take it so you can still keep us updated! You could do that on your phone, too, of course!

    Most of all, ENJOY! Remember to DO IT ALL! Make lots of friends, take Lopez for walks, get on the internet, all that! :)
