These are old pictures of my pansies. My daughter has all yellow at her house. The house is blue so it works great.
Any time I ever do purple or shades of lavender, I always think of my mother. That was her all time favorite color. I recall a time she wanted me to hem a pair of purple slacks for her. Daddy said she only has 15 other pairs of purple slacks. LOL. Oh how I miss that crazy arguing couple. They could put on a better show than any Friday Night at the Fights. Scary when I was young, but just made me stronger.
All the beauty of flowering trees , just doesn't seem to last long enough, when coming out of winter. But seeing it gives us a promise of nicer days. Honestly our weather and the weather patterns seem out of whack. Hot , cold, rains and frost. Then when the sun shines , the winds are wild.
Hoping we all can enjoy the rest of Spring. Help each other when you can , I think we all need one another whether we like it or not. XOXO
Spring is my favorite tim of year and I really enjoy all the blooming flowers and trees. I love pansies too! They can handle the cooler weather that sometimes comes in Spring! Good to hear from you! Enjoyed your post and pictures!
ReplyDeleteHope you are doing well. I miss all of our blogging friends. Since I try to keep busy I rarely read the blogs then I will just think of someone out of the blue and wonder how they are. Blessings sweet friend. XOXO, Susie
DeleteHow lovely that the color of your pretty pansies makes you think of your mom.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
I had just wrote on the mother's day date < I miss you mommy...ran into 3 girls and their mom at the store, the oldest told me their mom was very ill and not happy...I told them to hold her tight and often. Feel like crying thinking about it. Bless you honey. Hope your Spring bring sweet memories. XOXO , Susie
DeleteThose purple pansies are so pretty. How wonderful that the color purple reminds you of your mom. Janice
ReplyDeleteI truly think my mother loved purple because the house she ended up buying had irises and lilacs in the yard. Bless you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteLovely to see a post from you. Hope you are keeping well.
ReplyDeleteThank you honey. I am staying healthy but have allergies today. Stay healthy there. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteWe do need one another. Sometime a helping hand but always an encouraging word and a warm smile. I agree it was wonderful to look at my sidebar and see a new post from you today :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Connie. I hope you are keeping up with your yard and projects. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteSo glad you are back. I moved back to Indiana in Sept. from Florida. Purple was Mother’s favorite.
ReplyDeleteBrenda, I guess Florida's weather was rough this year. I kind of feel it's whacky all over the states. Welcome back home. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteDon't you just LOVE their friendly little faces!!? That first one, in my sidebar thumbnail---I took that to be a snobby little kitty-face, with her eyelashes curled and all ready for a party.
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful to see you appear, every time, and I LOVE pansies---they're so delicate but so comical sometimes.
Pansies do have sweet faces. :):) They dropped seeds at the farm and would pop up in the brick walk. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteLovely to see your comment here! Happy spring to you! Guess what, I am a grandmother now! Oh, I am so tickled! Truly! When I see LIly, I try not to eat or go to the Ladies', I hate the minutes away from her! LOL! No photos allowed on my blog of her but I promise she is gorgeous, you know she is!
ReplyDeleteWhat sweet new baby isn't gorgeous? I truly believe you!!! Congrats. It's a whole different kind of love isn't it. Blessings to all, xoxo, Susie
DeleteHow fun to think of our memories Susie! Loved seeing your post today!
ReplyDeleteHi Betsy, I am glad to see comments from you beautiful ladies....that I think of as friends I have not met yet. Bless you, xoxo, Susie
DeletePretty pansies..welcome back..It has been awhile for me as well..
ReplyDeleteLet's try to do a blog each month at least. IT's been good to see my friends again. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteOh Susie, how good to see you on your blog. Love pansies. These are beautiful. Had to laugh at the purple pants. One time looking in my closet my girls said, Mom, your close are boring. Cream, beige, white, ect. My sister loves RED. To each their own, I guess. I do love pastels. Glad to see you in blogland. I'm blogging again after a break for some needed surgery. Love and Hugs Wanda
ReplyDeleteWanda, Hope you are fully recovered. I used to have lots of beige and black things in my closet. But I also had a closet of pretty things for cruise wear. Ted had some nice dinner jackets too.Oh the life we once had. Trips, travels, and fun. Take care my sweet friend, Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteSo happy to see you back here! I always enjoy visiting with you. Have a cozy weekend.
ReplyDeleteHi Billie, So good to see your sweet smile and that doggie. I enjoy a few hours with my friends yesterday. My brother calls us, the Dalton gang. Blessings to you and yours, xoxo,Susie.
DeleteI LOVE seeing you here on your blog again!!! You are such a blessing to me. Louis Dean remembers you when I say, "You know! She's the one who thinks you're sexy when you bake or wash dishes!" Then he always laughs so loud! I was thinking of you today when I dusted a shelf that holds the little wood box your Teddy Bear made. My heart still aches when I think of you without him. You are a strong lady and I love you dearly!! And, yes, I do hold Louis Dean a little tighter now.
ReplyDeleteLinda, I think we were meant to be sisters. I still go to music fellowship. It's the only time I will cook something big. I got my big crockpot back from my daughter and she said Mom keep it , you enjoy cooking for others. A man at music asked me if my name was Susie, I said yes it is. He said , can I call you Susie Q? My mind went straight to thoughts of you and LD. I said it would be okay, but if he was cute he could call me Often!!! Just a joke, he liked it. I am grateful for Friends and music fellowship. Glad you are holding LD tight. Love you both so much. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
