I will start this post showing Kathy's rose. Happy birthday sweet Kathy Jane. Your rose is in full bloom. With your birthday coming up this week, I thought you'd love to know. Love you.
This is me eating my lunch with all my friends yesterday. LOL. I stopped at the dairy queen for lunch yesterday , took this shot and sent it to Kathy. We laugh about it, because she eats alone lots of times.
After lunch, I leave town to go back home ....I looked back and got a shot of the Co-op.
Once I get home, I relax on the porch . Of course there's a load of laundry going. Our weather was just glorious yesterday. It's been nice this whole past week. We will get some needed rain coming this week.
I would like to wish all the wonderful fathers out there a day of love and family. I miss my dad. So all of you who still have your fathers, be thankful and hug him for us who have lost ours. Enjoy this good day. XO
We're having a few days of glorious weather. I love it when that happens.
ReplyDeleteIt just really seems like summer Linda. I just feel it's more like when I was younger. Hope you are keeping cool though. We have the AC on in the house. But I like being outside when I can. Blessings to you and Bob. Please tell him Happy father's day. xoxo, Susie
Delete"life is better on the porch!"
ReplyDeleteOh my yes! You, who have one, are so lucky. A screened in one would be perfect, to me, that is. :-)
Tessa
....Who is off with the faeries...
Oh Tessa, My dream porch is one so deep you could sit thru a rain and not get wet. :):) I would love a screened porch . We had one when we lived in town..I miss it. Stay cool. xoxo, Susie
DeleteHi Susie, Missing my dad today too. Love your photos and I'm happy you have enjoyed such nice weather. Perfect for enjoying your porch. xo
ReplyDeleteMildred, I would love to just smell some Old Spice aftershave ...it would make me think of dad. He wore that all the time. :):) I love how very nice this past week has been...just so much like summers gone by. Wish your husband a happy father's day from us. Bless you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteHope you can enjoy some time on the porch today, Susie...missing my dad today, too...xoxo
ReplyDeleteLinda, I am sorry we can't hug our fathers today. I know that my dad would be smelling of Old Spice and we would be cooking out. Bless you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteYour rose is beautiful! It's hot in Texas so I'm not really sure I would call it glorious!
ReplyDeleteI don't often go out to eat by myself. Probably because I am not by myself much at all!
Happy Father's Day to your Ted!!!
Linda, I do not want to complain about it being hot...when I think how long winter keeps us in. But some times the heat does too. I have just loved this past week's weather. Not too hot, no rain and sunny skies. I could always eat alone at home. But some times I make myself go out to eat even by myself. My daughter Kathy does, because her man is on the road often. My retirement isn't all the ladies' teas and luncheon, that I dreamt it would be. LOL. Happy Father's Day to your sweet LD. I will pass your wishes along to Teddy. Thank you. Blessings, love you guys, xoxo, Susie
DeleteThat rose is just beautiful. I love roses. I go out to eat by myself too. But less now that I am home and with Joe so much. Happy Father's Day to Ted!
ReplyDeleteHi Kathy, Ted and I go out to eat together lots...but when he isn't home I some times do not want to cook at all. I would rather eat in a quiet place anyways,so no one in the DQ didn't bother me. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteSuch a pretty rose~I think I lost my climber at the lake but oh well, there is time to plant another, right?
ReplyDeleteLife is good...love that you remember to do laundry in between resting. I have a mountain!! I've been very lazy!!!!
Jane
Blondie, I know you will grow another rose.:):) You truly like gardening. Some times I like to sit on the porch and write letters and listen to my Carpenters' CD. I don't like to get big laundry groups...Ted says I sort too much. He would wash it all in one load. LOL. Hope you had a beautiful weekend. Bless you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteWhat a gorgeous rose! Mine are blooming like crazy right now and I've been cutting a few blooms for my bud vases. Enjoy your week sweet friend. Hugs, Diane
ReplyDeleteDiane, I did not dare cut any roses here..not enough. I one day will have a rose bush growing like I want. I would dearly love a climbing rose on an arbor. :):) Hope it was nice there in Florida over the weekend. We will have rain on Tuesday. Hopefully no soon. Bless you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteI looked at the photo of "you and your friends" eating lunch and then enlarged it and STILL didn't see any people...hahhaa...I don't mind eating alone one bit...I've even been known to go to a movie on the spur of the moment, alone...pretty neat, actually
ReplyDeletehope all the dads in your family had a good day
BJ, You cracked me up. I love your sense of humor. I took that picture to send to my daughter....she eats a lot by herself and even antiquing alone. Some times I love being by myself and other times I would love to have company. Thank you for the good wish for all the dads here. I think everyone did have a good day. Blessings to you and I know your Mr. sweet had a good weekend. Cause you are always cooking up something so good. xoxo, Susie
DeleteHope your hubby had a great Father's Day.
ReplyDeleteSusie I can understand the fun and pretty of living near the country now. While our new place is suburbia if you go out the back way you are on country roads with farm after farm and lots of horses and cows on your travels. Love it. Best of both worlds. Have a wonderful week.
Kris
Kris, I am so glad you are loving your new place and the area . I know you are loving being near your children. I love to see the horses and cows. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteYour rose is so beautiful and I hope your husband had a nice Father's Day. I love sitting on the porch and we've had some beautiful, low humidity days to do it in. I wish we lived more close we'd sit together and feel the nice summer breeze and talk away the hours. Love and blessings to you dear friend. xo
ReplyDeleteSusie, Sitting on the porch with you would be wonderful. :) We had storms last night and more due today and Wednesday....but this morning the full strawberry moon was still in view.. So I got to see the day version.Blessings, xoxo, love,Susie
DeleteOh Susie your rose is gorgeous !! Eating alone, just one of those things I never did. Tom always said it never bothered him...lol Glad you're having lovely weather ! It has snd will be terribly hot here... Ugggg
ReplyDeleteTake care
Gert
Gert, I think men can eat out alone easier than women. Our beautiful weather left us last evening...we had some storms and more are predicted, althought it clear out right now and I can see the day version of the strawberry moon. Blessings to you my dear friend, xoxo, Susie
DeleteThe rose is very pretty, Susie. It's such a nice color too. Yes, I am also missing my dear dad on Father's Day, but he is always in my heart. Your porch sounds like a charming and peaceful place to rest and just watch the world go by. I'd love to have a porch like this, Susie.
ReplyDelete~Sheri
Sheri, My father would love that rose...he liked the color salmon. It is good you hold your dad memory in your heart. Blessings, xoxo,love, Susie
