Hibiscus from my Back Yard

It has been a busy week, I haven't been feeling on top 
of the world (lots of sinus problems) so my blog is a little behind.
Here is a gorgeous Hibiscus from my garden.  
I will be back to my normal postings on Monday.
Have a great Saturday and an awesome weekend!

Ouch...getting older is fun

Great fun first thing this morning, even before I had my coffee.
OB/Gyn Dr. ordered blood test to 
check my hormone levels, ah, the joys of aging.
Thank goodness, I had a kind gentle Phlebotomist who took 
my blood and was done before I even knew she had stuck me. 
 I am extremely squeamish and have been known 
to pass out while watching an episode of ER.

Baby Grandson is One Month Old...Already!

This is my son's baby picture when 
he was one month old, way back in December 1980



And here is his son, my Baby Grandson at one month old. 
 I see some similarities (they are both adorable).
My, my, how time flies!

Tried a New Organic Coffee

I am a coffee fanatic, and very picky about the coffee I drink.  
My favorite grocery store had "Audubon" coffee on sale and the bag was so pretty, 
 I thought why not give it a try?
When I opened the bag, the aroma was heavenly,  I couldn't wait to try it.
I wasn't disappointed. Yum! It was so good, I am going to go back and stock up.

Of course I had to drink it out of my vintage "Nestle World Cup".

I chose the Rainforest Blend, it is a medium blend, which is what I like.
It is great to find a good organic coffee that helps the environment.

Here Comes That Rainy Day Feeling

It is raining. I woke up to a light rain, which is awesome because it rains so rarely here in Arizona. Now it is raining hard. I am taking it easy today and enjoying the cool, rainy weather. Here is a classic rainy day song, perfect for a day like today.

Feed My Starving Children


This morning Jeff and I packaged meals to send to developing nations.   The event was held at our church.   This is a great cause that I am involved in, if you are looking for a good charity to get involved in you will like this one.  Information click here.



Feed My Starving Children is a Christian
organization committed to "Feeding God's Starving Children Hungry in Body and Spirit".

“Whatever you did for the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me”
