~HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!~

Good Morning!
Here it is, the weekend of the 4th! Wish I were someplace, other than at home, but, I'm not. My hubby is on call for his work now, so that sort of puts the anchor down as far as us going anyplace together.. That's okay, I'm used to it! But there are times like these that I get kind of bummed out! It too, will pass..

I hope you all are having a happy 4th! It is raining out today at my house.. I guess it might rain here off and on through Monday.. I'm sure that our lawns and gardens can use the rain, but.. I'd much rather look out my windows and see the sunshine instead! The flower gardens will love all the rain and so will the farmer's gardens! It's needed too I guess. I think I'm what is known as a ~fair weather person~, where the weather has an overall effect on my mood.. whether I'm up, down or somewhere in between, (like I am now) on the mood scale.. Anyone else like me out there?
I'm sure I'm not the only one that the weather affects, at least I hope I'm not!

My thoughts yesterday were mostly about my father. Yesterday was his birthday, and he would have turned 82. He passed away May 5, 2006, at the age of 77. He and I were always real close, and I love and miss him dearly.. I know he's looking down at me from Heaven and knows that I miss and love him a whole bunch too.. Life is so darn short! Many, many times over, I've ask myself why some people live a short life while others live a long life? That will be one of many questions that I want to ask our Lord when I get to Heaven.. I bet you have some of your own too that you'd like to ask our Lord.
As I say on my post decor.. Make Everyday Count, as one just never knows when they'll be called home..

I don't mean to sound like being ~called home~ is a bad thing, cause it's not. It's just that it's so hard on the one's that are left behind.. I do feel though, that one never gets over their loss of a parent, child, loved one or friend that has died. I think the feelings of their loss or losses will always be with them. I know mine are.. Some of my feelings are just more profound at certain times than others, but are always still there in my heart and thoughts just the same.. never to be forgotten..

I look forward to the day when I can be up in Heaven with my Lord and Savior and Family and love ones! Oh! What a glorious day that will be!

I went to Hobby Lobby yesterday and found a couple items. One is a crackled glass round candle holder with roosters around it, and the other is a wicker basket with a lid that I'm using to store several of my crochet yarns in. It works really well! I'll share some picture's with you all later, once I get them taken and downloaded. My Hubby and I also went to Jin Wei for lunch yesterday.. Hmmm sooo good!

You and your family and friends enjoy and have a Happy 4th! Stay safe too, especially if you're traveling or out and about, or using or watching firecrackers!

Thank you so much for visiting my blog! I love the kind comments that you leave, and I love having you stop by! Have a wonderful day!

Blessings,
