We’re smack in the middle of summer but I will pause and count my blessings this season. Our arid Arizona days have turned into monsoon rains and we are refreshed. Triple digits are put on hold for a while and cooler desert mornings allow me longer hours of yard work, especially after the messy, wild storms. We’ve always grown hollyhocks, but for some reason, they went dormant the last two years. I remember Tom on his sickbed reminding me to water the seeds he planted near the fence and, like a crazy lady, I watered what seemed like empty dirt all last year. Was he confused, maybe? Come spring I saw the fluffy, green leaves sprout all along the fence line. I got excited when the different colored flowers opened. You never know what you're going to get! As I watered, I thought of the Scripture verse about “calling forth that which is not as though it was.” Hmm, I should apply that one to several areas of my life! I spent last week with family in Tucson.
Oh my Mary. I laughed so hard when I read that license plate. I wouldn't pass her, that's for sure. I love you dear friend. You always make me smile. Always. Have a a great Friday.

Fair warning, I'd say. I love to go in gift shops and read the bumper stickers and shirts. I don't ever buy - I just laugh. I would put this one, if anything: Jesus Loves You (but I'm his favorite) Makes me smile.
ReplyDeleteToo cute. What a blessing after a long week...thank you, andrea
ReplyDeleteOh that is too funny. I wouldn't pass her! LOL.

Oh, no...I wouldn't pass her either! Too funny and I'm so thankful those days are over for me...my family is too! LOL!
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!
Oh, no - I'd back off and not get anywhere close to her vehicle. At least, she provided a warning - a very kind gesture, I think. LOL
ReplyDeleteCracked me up!!!!
ReplyDeleteThere are definitely some good things about being a "senior", and NOT having PMS is one of them. Come to think of it, THAT license plate could have been mine 30 years ago!
Be blessed!

If that had been an Oklahoma plate I would have bet my daughter was driving it!!! Every day on her way home she calls me to complain about all the drivers in the city!
ReplyDeleteOh, that is so funny! And no, I wouldn't pass her. I do believe if that were my plate, I'd try to send it back and get another. Thanks for making me smile today.
