Life is a Special Occasion!
Hallmark
Ah. July 22nd is Hammock Day, a grand occasion for swinging gently in the shade, coddled by a gentle summer breeze. Today seems like a wonderful reason for lounging in a comfortable hammock nest, alone or with someone special, on July 22nd. . Summer is in full swing. It's time to slow down and to relax.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Ah, summer, what power you have to make us suffer and like it.
Russel Baker
The weather forecast says this week is to be a lot hotter than the cool week we experienced last week. We may be close to 90 degrees today. But thanks to a few scattered thunderstorms we may cool down to the 70’s again by Thursday. Our weather is certainly up and down like a roller coaster lately.
I’ve noticed that mid summer days like we have now really do feel different. The hot and humid dog days are settling in. The freshness that we felt at the beginning of summer is gone and I have to admit I’m feeling very lazy. Ah yes, and the days are starting to get shorter too.
I won’t be laying in a hammock today but hope to get outside awhile before it gets too hot. Our little Xfactor is supposed to be here today. He loves to play outdoors.
I hope you all have a terrific Tuesday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Dirty hands, iced tea, garden fragrances thick in the air and a blanket of color before me, who could ask for more?

I have counted at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for over a year and have now reached over 1800 gifts. On my way to 2000. I'm not stopping, but will continue on counting. There is always, always something to be thankful for.
1874. for lazy days
1875. for restful places in the shade
1876. for another day to spend with one of my grandsons
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Lord, hold our troops in
your loving hands.
Protect them as they protect us.
Bless them and their families for the
selfless acts they perform for us
in our time of need. I ask this in the
name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT's
GOD BLESS YOU ALL !
ADVICE FOR TODAY
A summer's sun is worth the having.
French Proverb
A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…
Love,

Happy Day my dear! I'm enjoying this beautiful weather even though it's been a bit on the hot and muggy. It sure beats the frigid cold we had this last winter!!
Its good to enjoy some lazy summer days, Ma! I always thought it would be fun to have a hammock to lounge on and enjoy the summer weather. I hope you had a great day with XFactor!
