Focus on Life: Week 35- Growth and Change

Growth and change.....well right now I feel like I am in holding pattern.  I can't seem to see the path where I am supposed to go. So I guess I will just wait.

But I did have something change in my yard.  My brother came by and put up the swing that I took from my parent's place when they past away.  The picture isn't that great either, as my good camera died and the only one I had was an el cheapo..but you get the point.

Focus On Life - Week 33 - In Season

Well, I don't know about the rest of you, but when I saw this prompt, my first thought was that song from the 70's -  Song: Time Of The Season Lyrics by The Zombies...  Ok, so I am showing my age....but it was a cool song.  Also later that day my husband and I had to run an errand and saw this sign....(suppose to say Rainy Season is Here!
























Thought it was kinda catchy...but we all know what season it is...especially in Florida....SUMMER! And finally we got the chance to go to the springs and beach....here is collage of what we did.  The two girls in the water is my daughter (standing) and me (in water...it was COLD water). Then the mural with my daughter in was on the side of a restaurant in Crystal River, so I convinced her to pose.....then there is one of the hundreds of crabs that were coming on shore...what a sight.  Then my son is striking a pose...that's me behind him...hehehehe. And of course some seagulls...when I took the picture of the single seagull with the buoy's behind him, I didn't realize there were seagulls on each one... what a hoot!

That my day in the "Summer Season" For more hop over using the links below....Have a sunny day!

Focus On Life - Week 32 - Where I Stand

When I first read this, being silly as I can be, I thought well I stand on my feet...but...we know that is not what she meant.   So I have been thinking about it this week, and right now I am standing in the center of several cross roads...Now that my parents have passed, I had wanted to do some traveling...but that is on hold while we wait for the doctors to decide what to do with my husbands ankle...after 9 months the bones still have not healed, one of the screws in his ankle is loose and he has an infection....they have given us several options. We are just waiting for the last of the lab test results to come in before making a decision.

My middle son is at home while he goes to college...where he is finding that college is totally different from high school.  My daughter spent the summer here helping me around the house and going through some of her "stuff" we brought with us when moved.  What she packed two years ago doesn't seem as important now....lol.

But..I know God is Good, and the right path will show itself when he is ready.

In my picture, I have my family, the one of my husband of course was taken last year before his accident. Then there is my daughter...(laying on the couch) then my middle son, and then my oldest with his two daughters and my daughter in law...the rest are of the nature around my house that somehow keeps me grounded.  I can't tell you how much I sit at my window or go out and look around my yard when I feel like I am about to loose it. Oh, and our dog, who doesn't know she is a dog.....

So from where I stand...life is good, God is good, and I will just keep plugging along.

Focus on Life - Week 31...The color Blue!

I really thought I would be gone this weekend so I had my picture ready.  I really haven't been outside this week. So I went back and found some "blue" pictures in my stash.  My husband's fav color is blue, mine is purple...so we are kinda the same...but anyway, here goes!

For more "blues" hop over to Sally's place! Til Next week......

Focus on Life - Week 30 - Catch the Sun

Wellllll, even though I live in the "Sunshine State"....this week has been more rain than sun.  The summer is our rainy season and we are really getting it!  Today...is the first day I haven't woke up to rain. We are hoping to go visit the springs and get a little r and r or sunshine!  But I did manage to get a couple of photos before the rain set in of the bird feeder outside my window with the sun, and my dog looking out the window watching for the squirrels that were running around out there in the sun, and then if you can see in the one picture how tall my grass is. I am going to have a jungle soon.....

For more pictures of the SUN hop over to Sally's page. 

Focus On Life - Week 29 - Routine

Wow week 29 and I am a day early...whoo whoo!  I guess not having much going on on a Friday helps.....

This week, as you can see, Sally gave us the prompt - Routine.  Hmmmm...routine....doing something the same way every day.....ahhh...yessss...that would be MY COFFEE!  Unless I have to go in for a fasting blood work, DON'T mess with me til I have had my morning coffee!  Really sad I guess....but I don't have any little ones running around so I can take as long or as short a time as I want.   But I guess this is ONE of the PERKS of being "more mature" and retired....

My coffee, my computer, my emails, life is good!

So anyway...I have had my morning coffee, it is now time for my breakfast and to get on with the day.  For more great routines, hop over to.....Sally's
