It is my HOPE that I will continue to see the REAL treasures around me,

Let Your Love Flow
(Bellamy Brothers)
There's a reason for the sunshine skies
There's a reason why I'm feeling so high
Must be the season when that love light shines all around us

So let that feeling grab you deep inside
And send you reeling where your love can't hide
And then go stealing through the moonlit night with your lover

Just let your love flow like a mountain stream
And let your love grow with the smallest of dreams
And let your love show and you'll know what I mean it's the season
Let your love fly like a bird on a wing
And let your love bind you to all living things
And let your love shine and you'll know what I mean that's the reason

There's a reason for the warm sweet nights
And there's a reason for the candle lights
Must be the season when those love lights shine all around us

So let that wonder take you into space
And lay you under it's loving embrace
Just feel the thunder as it warms your face you can't hold back

Just let your love flow like a mountain stream
And let your love grow with the smallest of dreams
And let your love show and you'll know what I mean it's the season
Let your love fly like a bird on a wing
And let your love bind you to all living things
And let your love shine and you'll know what I mean that's the reason

Just let your love flow like a mountain stream
And let your love grow with the smallest of dreams
And let your love show and you'll know what I mean it's the season
Let your love fly like a bird on a wing
And let your love bind you to all living things
And let your love shine and you'll know what I mean that's the reason.

Have a GREAT Thankful Day!!



My goal this year is to soak it up, to bloom where I am planted, and enjoy the ride...

Bloomin' Tuesday: 03/31/09

(fuzzy) Pink Champagne Clematis, Early Spring Bloom, Part Sun

Last year Lowe's had all their Clematis on sale. I bought one of each and planted them all together, thinking it would be easy to care for them.
THEN I found out different bloomers have different pruning needs.
Oh, well.

So as they are blooming, I'm going to document, and plan on making the adjustments to make sure I can prune them and keep them happy, for many more seasons of blooms:)

Say hello to my first Clematis bloom this year:)

Black Sunday, The Peace Treaty has been Violated!!!!

Life with a Monarch is a delicate thing.

Queen Uno has declared COMPLETE reign for many years.
She is a kind ruler, allowing her subjects MUCH freedom.
After seeing to her needs, her subjects may go about their business,
AND Queen Uno goes about hers.



But this Sunday things went VERY WRONG!!

It was ok when the subjects took it upon themselves to bathe the dumb dogs.
Dogs, unlike cats, NEED a bath every now and then.
AND they are owned BY the people,
unlike cats which OWN the people.

But THEN the people overpowered the Queen,
hosed her down,
suds her up,
hosed her down again,
then



left her to fix the mess they had made.

Queen Uno did not go down without a fight,
there much protesting in the form of yelling and screaming
(on both sides),
much blood was shed
(on the rebel subjects' part-NOT the Queen's) .




On Monday, the Queen reviewed the Peace Treaty with her disloyal subjects.
They WILL think twice before pulling another coo such as this again!

She may have lost the battle,

BUT Queen Uno has won the WAR!!

ALL HAIL QUEEN UNO!
LONG LIVE THE QUEEN!!!!

Son-Day: "The Old Rugged Cross"

What Happened to Your Hand by Lars Justinsen



The Old Rug­ged Cross was writ­ten in Al­bi­on, Mi­chi­gan. Or Po­ka­gon, Mi­chi­gan. Or Stur­geon Bay, Wis­con­sin. All three towns claim to be the birth­place of this hymn.

On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
The emblem of suffering and shame;
And I love that old cross where the dearest and best
For a world of lost sinners was slain.


So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.

O that old rugged cross, so despised by the world,
Has a wondrous attraction for me;
For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above
To bear it to dark Calvary.


So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.

In that old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
A wondrous beauty I see,
For ’twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died,
To pardon and sanctify me.


So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.

To the old rugged cross I will ever be true;
Its shame and reproach gladly bear;
Then He’ll call me some day to my home far away,
Where His glory forever I’ll share.


So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.
Have a Blessed Son-Day!!!!
