OT Life's Simple Pleasures
Yesterday was DS2 Birthday. (He moved to FL last
summer, so we missed celebrating with him.) We had some nice phone visits. He is a wonderful man; we consider ourselves very fortunate. AND ... some yellow daffodils are blooming in our yard! So maybe, just maybe, Spring will come here soon. What is making you happy this week? PAT in VA/USA |

He has a little cold and his nose was running like crazy. He just lights up my life. Yes, I have other grandkids, but he is special. aeromom |

I'm so near to finishing the 1390 quilt I can taste it, and it goes into competition this weekend (anticipation over reactions!- I expect to be flattered loads over it). There's a cake in the oven, and I don't get to eat it, but gosh it smells good. -georg |

SIL is visiting for the first time and we are getting along famously, Meg
has taken quite a shine to her, and DH is feeling really good about seeing his little sis again. A special project Im working on is coming together nicely, and all seems right with the world.

I woke up this morning. I was able to take my daily walk. I mowed part of
the lawn. I have a family to love and that loves me. And I have a quilt ready to bind. -- Mary http://community.webshots.com/user/mardor1948 "Pat in Virginia" wrote in message news:HspZd.29013$Sn6.26085@lakeread03... : Yesterday was DS2 Birthday.

Pink jasmine and orange tree are blooming at the same time. It smells so
sweet here it is almost enough to make one swoon! Very intoxicating. Despite cool night temps, I must have the bedroom window open at night so I can enjoy this fleeting pleasure. The desert is a riot of color right now, everything is blooming. And the birds are singing their spring songs, they are much more pleasant than an alarm clock! I got an unexpected raise in pay. My mother has been cancer-free for more than five years.

Well Pat the happy comes from the bad today. Started the morning with
the pup in the vet's for an eye injury. With the meds she should be fine. Mid day I got a call from DH at the ER that he's been in a wreck and they had taken him to the hospital. SInce he works for the dept. of Transportation and is often out and about on the fwys. there is always a concern there. Anyway after a very thorough exam they found he is ok. I was able to collect him and he is home safe. I am very happy and grateful too. Been a long day but I am happy all is well. My daffodils are spent but there are iris and all my fruit trees in bloom. Our brown So. Calif. hills are green and beautiful. There is snow looking so pretty on the mountains. It is a wonderful time of year. Taria Pat in Virginia wrote: Yesterday was DS2 Birthday.

Oh, Pat, that sounds wonderful. I had a very rewarding day today, when
I taught some gals in my Guild free-motion quilting. They were attentive and appreciative, and I passed along hints I learned from Sue Nickels' class at MAQF. I rewarded myself with a small bowl of lemon and strawberry jelly beans...Yum! Nancycog in MD |
