Cute kitty and daisies, jaycee!

[Billie]

Your picture of the bird (don’t know what kind it is) outside the sunroom/porch is so pretty, GeeBee. How I’d love to have a porch like that!

[Jane Austen]

LOL!

Also, 1102 & 1106 are adorable.

Have to get back to work and run chores. I'll drop in again in a few days.

Hi Jane! Check the post 1138, where there is a link to the rest of the story called “The Daisy” by Hans Christian Anderson.

I love poetry. I have a book called The Best Loved Poems of the American People, by Hazel Felleman. It was copyrighted in 1936. Some times, I just sit with the book, and read one not previously read..........

[Billie]

didn’t say that right. I HAD thought that Jason was a nice guy before he allowed himself to be manipulated by Molly. Now I don’t think too highly of him and don’t care to see anymore of him either. He blew it.

Yep, we're on the same page. :) And the odds are not in their favor for it to be a long lasting, "spend-the-rest-of-my-life-with" kind of relationship.

[Billie]

BTW ... love your daisy post, it's extremely well done.

Forgot to say thank you to this! :)

[Billie]

Thanks, Lori! And YIKES! 35 degrees in your neck of the woods?

Hope you're having fun with the pearl glaze on your walls - are you likin' it?! I bet it's pretty.

Thanks for the pretty daisy picture!

[Billie]

Actually, I think yours are sunflowers, not daisies! (aren’t they?) :)

[Mama_Bear]

Hope you're having fun with the pearl glaze on your walls - are you likin' it?! I bet it's pretty.

Not liking it yet. I think my walls may have too much texture on them, or I should have had the glaze tinted a shade darker or lighter than the wall color. To be fair, the guy at Lowe's said that the pearl effect wouldn't show up much with the glaze being the same color as the wall, but I didn't want a huge effect. So, what I got was an effect so understated that you can barely see it. LOL.

I think I need to wait and see what it looks like when it is completely dry. At least it didn't turn out looking bad and I won't have to paint over it.

I'm enjoying all the cute daisy pictures and the poetry

I have done my "ready for anything" grocery shopping, been to
the bank, went to the post office, back to the bank because I
forgot something. Saw lots of trees in bloom.
I am ready to prop my feet up and rest my back.

[jaycee]

I haven’t been back on since I left facebook today. It had been 3 weeks since I was on there! Both my granddaughters are on there and always yelling at ‘Nana’. My youngest son is on there and I also have a nephew in Tampa and we yell out at each other.

I will probably check in FB tomorrow! FR is open all the time even when I can’t join in, even though I like to peek in and see whats going on! I get lost on FB sometimes jumping around, etc. Know what I mean?

[jaycee]

I obtained that little graphic through Google! Didn’t know anything about a movie, etc. Isn’t that strange? Billie, I never have any trouble with the computer anymore since B. worked on it for me! Occasionally when I have too many things open, minimized to the bottom, the computer goes much slower! But there’s certain things I like to keep open, expecially since I’ve been in the learning mode....LOL! I will probably be in the learning mode for a long, long time!

[jaycee]

That picture is so lovely, Meg!
My, haven’t you accomplished a lot!
Feels good when you get all those things
done, doesn’t it?

[Lady Jag]

Hope everyone had a beautiful day. Snow is gone!

Daisy, Daisy

Give me your answer, do

I'm half crazy

All for the love of you

It won't be a stylish marriage

I can't afford a carriage.

But you'll look sweet

upon the seat

of a bicycle built for two.

[MEG33]

Thank you, (((jaycee)))
I’m too tired to feel good yet! LOL
I know I will feel better when the counters are cleared of all the groceries I have yet to put away...Chocolates and coffee are helping me catch my breath.
;o)
My house looks like a disaster zone...Tomorrow is the day to begin creating some order.
We have an 80 per cent chance of rain tonight! Come on rain!

[MEG33]

I love this from Mother Teresa.

[jaycee]

Glad you posted that cute song! Most of us know all the words, I guess!

I suppose you are glad the snow is gone!

Phone rang and this reply has been hanging here for 45 minutes...LOL!

[jaycee]

I know exactly how you feel. I get so overwhelmed sometimes with all there is to do! The harder I work, the behinder I get! I know people joke about a phrase such as that but with me its true! I am not accomplishing what I need to accomplish!
I have some kind of problem....LOL!

[MEG33]

Woo Hoo..Your snow is gone..If rain happens tonight things will really be good here.

Summer weather is going to be over for awhile ...
I now have summer and winter things mixed into my closet..This time of year goes hot and cold.

I am so ready for a rainy day.

[MEG33]

I just threw a bunch on junk mail on the floor. I’m not picking it up until I throw away more junk and triple bag the utility bills for the trash..I hate the shredder..too noisy!

When I am really, really old and more demented than now..they may find huge sacks of old bank statements piled to the ceiling..LOL..I hate shredding. I hate paperwork.
I want an office assistant.
