Thursday Thoughts



This is the little church that we stopped to see yesterday!!

Good Morning and Welcome to my part of the world...Georgia!! We have been getting rain which we always seem to need here. The temperature has went down a little and that always helps too. I am still watching my neighbors home and going over to our daughter's home and feeding her kitties...

Today I take Mother for her first massage!! I sure hope that she enjoys it as much as I always have...I am really envious of course but she needs to say she has at least had ONE..Right?

Yesterday we met Mike at noon for lunch...Mike took Dad home with him and Mother and I set off looking for a new sewing machine for ME!! I have had mine for years and years and it is just so old that so many things do not work on it...It has also yellowed over the years too. It is a Singer. We went to Hancock Fabrics and right there was a great bargain. We came home with a Brother Sewing machine...I am crocheting a purse and need to make a lining so that is my first sewing project in a long time. I am still crocheting the handles for the purse. Hopefully this will turn out okay...If it does not work out well I had fun in the doing of it!! Smile!!

We went to see the kitties and got them fed and talked too..Fed the little bitty fish too. Came home and collasped....after playing with the sewing machine. It is a very nice one and i am going to enjoy it. Mikey said...Why did you get that? Well I bought it with MY WORKING MONEY so there!! smile!! He is a sweetie you know!!


Here is Tigger our daughter's cute Maine Coon

Are any of you on facebook? You know I love it because I have re-found old friends from some 30 years ago...Love that aspect. They have little things that you can become fans of like: Flipping the pillow over to get to the cold side; Life is good; I love Oreos; fan of marriage; Love brownies; Love laughing; going barefoot; love being a parent and so on and so on!! Kind of fun...I know some of you think it is a waste of time...Oh well at least it is MY time..right...

Mother and I stopped to take a picture yesterday of a historic church...it is really a cute one...The picture is at the top..here is the sign out front...

I received several great pictures yesterday via email of my oldest grands and their parents...Here is a great one that I wanted to share..We make them gorgeous in this family for sure!! I am a little bit prejudice.


Aren't they a beautiful bunch of ladies!!

Better get going this morning!! Much to do!! Smile!! Drop by when you have the time...

Thought for the day:" Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin' it back in"

You will enjoy that new sewing machine.

That's a beautiful picture of the grands. They grow up so fast, don't they?

I hope your mom enjoys her massage. I hate them, but I know lots of folks who love them.

What a lovely kitty. My cat is very similar looking, except not quite so dark.

That is one cute old church.

I sometimes think of getting a portable sewing machine and getting rid of my old Kenmore sewing machine. I just don't sew much.

The kitty is cute and the girls are beautiful!

I just got a Face Book account not long ago and don't know the ins and outs of it yet.

Have a great weekend, Sandy.

Hi Sandy. You've been busy as usual. I really hope your mother enjoyed her massage. I love massages, I feel so energetic for a short while after, then soooo relaxed.

I don't sew anymore. I used to...I've made wedding and bridesmaids' gowns in the past, jackets and trousers for men, sewed all mine and my daughters' clothes, but I've given it away now. I even send my repairs out...that's how much I've "retired".

Of course your family is beautiful. We all have beautiful families, don't we?

Have a wonderful weekend, Sandy.
