Summary of time spent...

Sunday was lovely with all of us together...eating, playing, and relaxing. The weather has been so nice...with sunshine and comfortable temperatures.

We took advantage of this "heat wave"...

Monday was a holiday for "J", so we spent time playing at home...inside this time:)

On the menu...Indian and Blueberry Desert...

Mommy time...

I'm really enjoying and feeling better from my new favorite exercise...I'm now up to 24 minutes...anyone new to meditation knows, learning to control ones thoughts, is very challenging at first....

I'm continuing to craft, when my little darlings allow:) I hope all is good, in your area of the world...

Namaste

Sunday...Quiet...Family...

Have a wonderful day filled with family, peace, and quiet....

See you tomorrow....

Once upon a Frigid night...

There were goodies of many delights...

There were crafty ones...

There were savory ones...

There were sweet ones...

and there were cottony ones...

whatever your delight ....may this night find you "snug as a bug in a rug"


I will  leave you with two quotes...ta ta for now...

When an ordinary man gains knowledge, he is a sage; when a sage gains understanding, he is an ordinary man.

Where there is great doubt, there will be great awakening; small doubt, small awakening, no doubt, no awakening.

Howling Winds

I started meditation tonight...and managed 10 minutes...I'm pleased and feeling this is the right path for me to follow. I love stillness...quiet...these bring me peace...spiritualilty...

“Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.”
Carl Jung




Namaste.

Strolling Mates

So what have we been up too? Strolling...the weather here has been fantastic. We have really been soaking up some Vitamin D:) Yesterday "M" and I strolled to the park for some sun...("J" was at school) she loves playing about on the slides...when it was time to leave...OMG she proceeded to lay down on the ground and cry/ scream...let me say, horrified I was...but I sat down and waited for her to finish "expressing"herself....in the hopes she would be able to collect herself, in time for us to pick up "J"...have I mentioned she is "almost" two...

Today is drizzly here, so we are going to relax. I love rainy days, I feel justifiable in laying about...truly I have been feeling quite poorly today...sniff, cough, blow...tis the order of my day:)

Ta Ta for Now!

How are you doing? I hope all is well, in your corner of the world. Life is good here in the lowcountry...an abundance of sunshine and nice temperatures~(maybe next week, we will have a Arctic blast...the weather is unpredictable of late...)


"M" and I spent Friday mucking about at the "NEW" park...this is one of my favorite areas...dolphins swim right up to the boats, undeterred by people...We ate lunch enjoying the beautiful weather, watching the shrimpers...and inhaling the lovely sea air...The more time outside I spend, the less stressed and frustrated I feel.

Saturday was my first Crocheting class...we met at a lovely - quaint cafe...enjoying tea and partaking of all crocheting knowledge...I definitely was all thumbs at first...assured by "this is normal for first timers"...I pressed on...I'm starting to feel at ease, now...and I love it...there is so much I want to learn...knitting, embroidery, needlepoint...time...I need lots of time...


Today (Sunday) is our lazy day...brunch was served...potatoes and onions with eggs, Lebna with EVOO ( extra virgin Olive oil), Chicken sausage with apples and maple,  Bread with cream cheese and honey, and as always OLIVES!!!! You can never have to many olives. Our plans for the remainder of today...enjoy the weather, smell fresh flowers, and coupon...save save save... and of course Crocheting, if my little ones allow:)

Namaste...

Fab Thursday

Good Evening my Lo vies...

I hope your day has been good...filled with warmth and laughter. We have had a terrific day...filled with Pulmonary Doctors, lunch with dad, and the park....it is a beautiful day here in the lowcountry...sunny and cool...mild blistery...The low country isn't my home by birth...more by marriage...but I have really grown to love my hometown!!! Lots of parks, sunshine, beach, and history...my goodness where else would one want to be? For all of you who know me...finding home has been a little bit of a challenge...my parents swore that I had gypsy blood...well I do so love to travel...I love me some Europe...but here is my home...


Okay first Pulmonary...a little history..."J" was born between 23 to 25 weeks...she weighted less than a pound...like 420 grams...lost down to 360grams...we spent a year and half in the NICU...this was primarily because of lung development...let me specify lack of lung development... and the Vent is life saving, however it remodels the lungs...so almost 4 years later...minus trachs, oxygen, lung meds, and vents...we are doing alright kid. "J" is no longer on any meds!!!! Yea...let me tell you when we first brought her home...I swear the house look like a ICU dept...my husband looked at me and said, "we can't do this..." we did though...thanks to many people and the good Lord! Todays follow up excellent...we will see them again in 6 months!!! Yippee!

After the success of the doctor...we went and had lunch with daddy...aka BABA...the girls love spending time with there father...which is a rarety from working all the time...but you do what you have to, right?

After lunch we decided with such a beautiful day...the park was in order...so playtime on!!!!

I hope you enjoy the pics...

I just love trees....especially when they have the moss all hanging down...beautiful day...well gotta go...cooking beef ribs tonight...house is smelling so good!!!


Ta Ta for now:)
