Believe you can, and, you're halfway there.

                                Hey--  It is Monday, June 15th-a new day  -- WooWoo! And I see the sunshine--I have been awake --came down early to turn up the heat a bit--Son #2 is in Brussels, Belgium--They flew overnight--just going to bed now, so he said, after they landed--I'm sure a picture will eventually come thru on here sometime this morning, of his breakfast--

Here in Elliot Lake, the washer sounds like it is finished-Lopez and                     Sushi and I, are "up and at-er' as Dad used to say--
            Believe we can, especially when we believe we can!
                                      
                            so, a few words I wish I had written--
#1.Be careful who you laugh at.
#2. It is no use crying over spilt milk.
#3. Childhood should be happy and carefree.
#4. Without the past, there is no future.

                            And, Blasts from the Past---
                                Below-- Fred with Son#4
Below-- Fred and I attending son#4's Graduation from Police college
Did you ever see so many bodies ??__"Life on the Dock!"
                                (I think I count 11 people)
Below--Son#2with Hannah, his daughter, who just graduated from                                                             University

Time to begin our day--"Move it, or lose it" as the kids used to say to each other--I hope that your day will be happy--Remember--Music is good for you whether yu are happy or sad--Do not think there are no crocodiles because the water is calm---(Crazy reminders eh?)--  So, get off of here--Make this the best day ever! I know you can---Oh--and ---                                                Big Hugs

    Quote for the day
    It is only the farmer who faithfully plants seeds in the Spring, who reaps a harvest in the Autumn.
    B. C. Forbes

    I feel that your harvest later on will be a beautiful yard that you will enjoy

    Happy Monday!
    It's sunny here and temperatures are only going to be in the low 70's F. So a bit cooler than it has been lately.
    I'm off to the grocery in a little bit, then lunch and a workout.

    Hope your day is awesome, Lynda. Enjoy!
    Hugs,
    Jackie

    Ah yes! Music! Yesterday I asked Alexa to play some "oldies" music to inspire me while I cleaned house! And it was great! I mopped floors and vacuumed and even moved furniture to get behind it! Yay! Listening to those old familiar tunes was just what I needed! Got lots done. I really do not like the "rap" music that the kids seem to love. Guess that's because I am old! hahaha!

    Good morning Lynda, are you feeling better today after yesterday's upset stomach? I certainly hope so. You do sound chipper, and that's a good sign. You have such wonderful family photos. Lots of togetherness, which is a blessing. Enjoy your day. Waiting to see what Matt decides to eat today.

    Good morning, Lynda. It's Kathy. I love your words of wisdom today, and all the family photos. Didn't have the best night's sleep last night - my neighbor of 44 years decided to yell at me AND my little Daisy yesterday while I was outside trying to get more weeds out of places. I don't know why she hates me so much but it's been 6 years now that she's watched me every time I go outside. It was pretty awful. So I believe I'll just stay in the house today!

    Hi Lynda! Happy Monday! It is high 68 in Ohio. Much cooler this week. I bet we get Matt pics of his good food. I got my painting almost done. Gosh, I am sore today. Why didn’t I hire it out? Well, the yorkies would need to go to daycare. It was just easier. How are you feeling?? I was worried about you getting sick. I sure hope you are feeling much better! Enjoy your week. Big hugs!

    Oh, Brussels is beautiful.

    As always, the photos are wonderful.

    LOVE that . . . do not believe there are no crocodiles because the water is calm. Brilliant.

    Here’s to a good day and enjoy the sun. We have some, too. . . before the rains come!

    hugs and blessings
