Isn't she pretty?

Have a lovely summer evening.

Well, might I say thank you to many

virtual flowers as symbol of thanks.

I'm a terrible person. At least, this month I have been. At the start of this month I received letters, gifts and among other things from people who love me dearly, {and I love them, too}. It was all for graduation. But I never got around to thanking them personally. I've written some thank you cards and am mailing them off this week and I'd like to also publicly thank them. 

So might I introduce:

Sherie M.

Thank you for the lovely surprise you left on my doorstep.

and...

Pam N., Amy S, and Shauna D.

Thank you for the card.

and...

Again, Shauna D.

Let me just say, this woman is AMAZING! She sent me 3 cards and lots of love. {I love her.}

and...

Tonya N. and Carol Ann H.

What a beautiful letter! Thank you.

and...

Bill and Karen L.

THANK YOU!

Eddie and Wendy C. and the lovely Delora P.

You are lovely people and I admire you immensely. Thank you.

What to write, what to write?

I think I think too hard.

A gazillion thoughts and ideas and stories rush through my mind. Almost as fast as 186,000 miles per second to be precise, {for all you dummies, 186,000 miles per second is the speed of light}. In other words, I can't keep up.

 

Let me explain. I love to blog because I love to write. I love to write because I love to think. I love to think because, well I don't know. I feel better when I do. However, lately thinking has been depriving me of sleep, my schedule, my social life {whatever is left of it}, my music, my chores, my blog, my life. And the irony is through the process of my deep wonderment, I've become numb to the very subject.

I've thought myself out. I've thought too hard I can't think anymore. It's so abstract it's almost unthinkable. {that was supposed to be funny.}

My point, exactly is...

Gah! I don't know. My brain is about to crash. Allow me to break from my world of reason for the weekend and I'll get back to you about the point. I can't think of one right now. {that was also supposed to be funny.}

Okay. Well, thank you kindly. I'll see you on Monday.

Sorry for the pause in posting

My week {or two} in a nutshell:


- lived on strawberries and cream.
- went to a concert in the park. 
- marched in a parade with my little sister Sue.
- went to a rodeo.
- went to yet another parade.
- more strawberries and cream.
- found a cure for my allergies. Remember the two C's: claritan and caffeine.
- made new friends. 
- got my stitches out.
- finally getting noticeably tan. 
- institute blew my mind and made me cry. 
- starting voice lessons.
- iced tea makes me feel dainty.
- discovered my green thumb.




Godly lessons learned this week: I found that there are drops of sunshine everywhere, you need to be the one to catch it, though. I learned you must never judge anyone's past. You love them, that's all. I discovered trying to justify something you feel is right is meaningless. People don't care. So you're polite and you go on. If you know it's right, you won't need to argue. 

What a lovely summer we're having.
