ReplyDeleteHi Delores! How sweet of you to offer your congrats! Thank you!
DeleteCongratulations to your winner! And thanks for the Sound of Music quote. That's my favorite all time movie. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Lisa! Another sweet person!! I knew you liked The Sound of Music, but I don't think I knew it was your "favorite all time movie." It's gotta be right up there at the top of my list, too!
DeleteKeep fighting the gloom, you can do it. We were fighting gray but had Lovely Sunday and had a little road trip even today! Now Thursday gray and severe weather starts to return for four days...okay, finding some gratitude like you before it gets here!
ReplyDeleteHi Bookie! Thank you for the encouragement! It's been gorgeous here today and I've been taking advantage of being outside when I can....Vern and I on the deck, taking a walk, and just looking out my large windows when I'm busy inside! Stay safe!!
DeleteI didn't win?

Yep, I'm sorry to say. Your word of disappointment is also one of my favorite words! That and also: Poopy, Poopy-Do, and Poops!
DeleteI think you nailed it in your side bar. Follow your bliss, whatever and where ever it is.
ReplyDeleteAnd remember you are much loved.
Although you always leave such heartfelt comments, I think this one is the absolute BEST! What a joy it is to read, over and over! And remember....you are much loved, too!
DeleteI may be the only person on the planet who hasn't watched The Sound of Music (though I know several of the songs).
ReplyDeleteThe stormy days pass and sun shines bright again - unless you live in Pittsburgh, one place where there are a predominance of cloudy days...yet I survived that, too. :)
Hi Kim! I think you definitely ARE the only one on the planet! LOL. I beg to differ on your choice of a cloudy, crappy city....I choose the Seattle/Tacoma area!! Ick!
DeleteI agree with you about counting your blessings regarding the weather, Becky. Hope it clears up soon, and I enjoyed your sunny day pictures very much.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Kathy M.
Thank you, dear Kathy! Hugs back at ya!
DeleteCongrats to the winner. I'm jealous. Sorry about your weather. Wish we could get a little of that here - we're in a drought. So glad you're able to make yourself happy though and share some of that with us. Love the pictures.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Myrna! I, too, wish all the areas that have too much water and flooding could send some to the drought and fire infested areas. Glad you liked the pics!
DeleteA lovely list of happies-- ahhhh. Does a heart good to see what makes someone smile. Thanks for sharing your pretty pictures. By the way, I love fluffy clouds too.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Julie! The more we find out about each other, the more things we have in common! Glad you liked my "happies!"
DeleteI love all of your fun photos, too! We used to go to the Lake of the Ozarks when my kids were growing up. They would get in paddle boats and go...and GO! Fun times! Congrats to your winner! I'm sorry I missed out! But I'm happy for this lucky lady! Sweet hugs my friend!
ReplyDeleteHi Diane! Thanks much for stopping by! I don't think I knew you ever vacationed in my state! Fun times!
DeleteGreat, happy pictures. (And BTW, I *HEART* The Sound of Music!)
ReplyDeleteKatie Gates!!! How mahhhhvelous to see you here!! Thanks so much for commenting, and I'm happy to hear that you "heart" The Sound of Music.
DeleteSo nice to mosey over this morning and read your words Becky! Hope you enjoy a great day. Love your photos!
ReplyDeleteHi Kathi! Thank you! And I'm so glad you moseyed on over here, too! I need to do the same....!
