" Those Who Touch Our Lives"

Every special person who touches our life leaves their own unique mark on our heart; a mark which can never be chiseled away even if the years eventually pull us apart.

We can take on their expressions and such the more we share of ourselves together. It's those little things about another person that can remain a part in us forever.

People who we have met throughout our life become a part of the person who we are today. We learn and we grow from the relationships each one touching us, in it's own special way.

We laugh about spending too much time together when we think we have become like each other. But it just shows how much we've been touched by the relationship we have found with one another.

Those special people who can touch our lives are like precious jewels amongst life's treasure. They shine on us and leave a lasting impression, a unique mark on our heart,

A gift without measures.

"One day you will realize that happiness is not what your house looks like, but how you love the people within its walls.

Happiness is not finding success by a certain time, but finding something you love so much time itself seems to disappear.

Happiness is not thinking you have earned the world's approval, but waking up each day and feeling so at peace within your own skin, quietly anticipating the day ahead, unconcerned with how you are perceived.

Happiness is not having the best of everything, but the ability to make the best of anything.

Happiness is knowing you did what you could with what you were given.

Happiness is not something that comes to us when every problem is solved and all things are perfectly in place, but in the shining silver linings that remind us the light of day is always there, if we slow down enough to notice."

Good morning..

A lovely day in the neighbourhood.....sound familiar?

Laundry will be hung on the line with care.

I hope to win over the quilt that is giving me grief today when possible. May not get it all done today but find a solution to the problem.

Phyllis, frustrating to say the least. Hope it all comes together soon for you.

Jane, market day today?

Patricia,did I ask if you have magpies out there? We encountered them in Alberta and they are not quiet!

Better get this day started before it heats up outside.

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

JaneS · June 01, 2024, 08:33:50 AM

Just a quickie...we're getting ready to hit the market! Jim took her display tables and stuff in the truck and she's probably already set up! I still have to get dressed. Cindy said we'd leave sometime between 9 and 9:30 so I better get moving!

I wish you all a good day and I'll try to check back later! Bye for now!!!

Almost forgot...Thank you BUBBLE for the new opening! I loved it all!! Some of it was very familiar!

Laundry on line and some weeds pulled. While out in the garden 40 geese flew over.....first in v formation,then they scattered then back into v formation with a different leader. Fun watching the animals.

Bubble, yes, thank you, thoroughly enjoyed the new start.

RAMMEL · June 01, 2024, 09:52:45 AM

Good morning --- I think.

patricia19 · June 01, 2024, 11:27:17 AM

Amy, I would have sworn, positive, that there were no magpies in Alaska. I was dead wrong. They are evidently new to the state, settling into the coastal areas and following the highways with a fondness for parking lots.

"Since 2007, biologists at the Alaska Bird Observatory have tracked sightings of magpies in the far north. Reports of the black-and-white bird with the raven-like head, iridescent plumage and sweeping tail have come from as far north as Fort Yukon and from way down the Yukon River, where Nulato residents have seen them feeding on a carcass pile."

CallieOK · June 01, 2024, 11:39:28 AM

Amy had asked in the May posts if all was well with me. Didn't see that until Bubble had taken us to the new page so...

All is well but I'm getting weary of this "off and on again" weather. My immediate area hasn't been hit - yet! - but hail/tornadoes have been all around us. Same with Tulsa area (where Jane is) but the town she's in hasn't been affected, either.

Family doesn't like for me to post pictures and personal information on here so I can't show you Cooper's and my meeting on Memorial Day. I think he was tired of being handed around and my arms aren't as reliable as they used to be so he was a bit fussy. He's a cutie and I look forward to the day his neck doesn't have to be supported as much.

This weekend, I'm watching the OU softball team try to win their 4th championship at the college women's softball "world series", which is playing in OKC. If they do, they'll be the first team in history of the sport to have 4 championships in a row.

Off to the kitchen to find something to do with some things in grocery order delivered yesterday.

Enjoy your day, Everyfriend!

JaneS · June 01, 2024, 12:34:08 PM

We're back from the Farmers Market in Broken Arrow! Ali's flower stand is doing well. She was busy every time I looked at her! Cindy and I did a little shopping there and at another little store down the street. I sure wish I had jars and my own freezer space. The veggies looked great and ready for the shelf!

AMY, I asked the ketchup guy if he'd be interested in a jar of homemade hot mustard and he got a bit excited. So I told him when my daughter takes me home, she'll bring one back for him and he knocked a dollar off my hot sauce!

CALLIE, you are enjoying your new little one! I bet he's a cutie but you're right. It's always more fun when they get a little bigger! I have another GGSon coming along in November this year. But he won't be any closer than the rest of them. He'll be in Houston, TX!

Also, you are right about the storms missing us! They can be scary when they get close!

Guess I better think about some lunch! Keep on keeping on! And enjoy the rest of the day!

AMY, good luck on the quilt!

Amy · June 01, 2024, 03:57:48 PM

Jane, I did peek in at the quilt but no work done on it today. Laundry,cooking,folding up tarps that I had used on the garden to ward the frost off and....shhh I had an HOURS nap!!! I need to also make mustard, we are licking the bottom of the jar at the moment. Another day that will happen...

Patricia, when I first saw the magpie I thought it was such a beautiful bird.....that was in Banff Alberta. We then camped out at Ponoka Alberta and in the morning magpies,their family cousins and more cousins were in the trees singing good morning at 5:30 am.......bless their belly buttons!!

Callie, I am glad the nasty weather has steered clear of both you and Jane!! Littles ones are so much fun to hug and cuddle.

Rick , every morning when we are on the right side of the grass is a good morning .

patricia19 · June 01, 2024, 04:10:23 PM

Amy, I've never actually seen or heard them, most articles say their emigration is via the coast and northern larger rivers. So they haven't made it here yet, not even to the Wildlife refuge and sanctuary.

JaneS · June 01, 2024, 07:53:58 PM

I'm going to wish you all a very good night. Cindy and I are getting involved in our usual evening get-together even though we had the morning today! I only havetw more weeks here and I need to fill them with love and company!

AMY, maybe tomorrow for the quilt! Or whatever!

PATRICIA, I bet, as it warms up, the birdies will find their way to your area.

Ali and family are coming for dinner tomorrow so we have our work cut our for us. We shelled fresh peas from the Farmers Market already!

Make tonight a good one! And come back tomorrow! We'll be watching for you!

Amy · June 02, 2024, 11:08:37 AM

Good morning..
Robins are singing for rain this morning...
So far we have been to town ,picked up groceries and I have replanted carrots and parsnips!
Now after lunch I am heading for the sewing room....I hope!

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

A good Sunday morning to EVERYFRIEND🦋🦋

My heart is so happy when I read about your days with your family JANE❣️❣️

CALLIE, we understand that some do not want us sharing pictures on the internet, but I sure would have loved to see you meeting Cooper❣️❣️

AMY, holding good thoughts for you finding some food that Babe will like eating.

PHYLLIS there have been so many terrible storms all over,like the one that caused your damage. Waiting for insurance can be so stressful 😢

Dave's wife moved in to his home this week. Her girls spend summers in San Diego with their father, so the big change of bedrooms will be the next step getting everyone under one roof. Her girls go to different schools in the same county and they wanted to finish out the year there. Can't wait for everyone to get settled in.

We are going to Vail tomorrow and will meet up with a Senior Net friend Eugene Thomas from Perth Australia. Some of you might remember he and his daughter Nadia. His wife Shirley passed a few years back and she was an active member as well.

We have been doing as much clearing out as we can. It seems like a never ending task.....😩😩

Enjoy your day EVERYFRIEND ‼️‼️‼️

Amy · June 02, 2024, 03:03:31 PM

Jenny ,good to see you!! Enjoy your time with your friends tomorrow!!
Family and friends makes the world a nice place..

Amy · June 03, 2024, 07:20:01 AM

Good morning..

Sunny with a starting temp of 51°. Not a lot on the docket today other than the usual. Will tackle that quilt ,I hope to soon see the end of.

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

RAMMEL · June 03, 2024, 09:18:27 AM

Sunny here too. But starting at about 70°. Nothing much planned here - as usual.

JaneS · June 03, 2024, 10:03:20 AM

I didn't make it in last night. We had Allison and family for supper and I had to take my computer off the dining room table and after they left, I just plain didn't feel like putting it all back together again!

I hope you all had a pleasant evening and a good night! I wish you all a good day coming up.

I had my walk and did a few odd jobs around the kitchen and we're doing a bit of laundry today. I'm thinking that will be my last laundry until I get home. We're leaving here on the 15th. Our one and only stop on the way will be Indianapolis to have a short overnight visit with Courtney. And we're spending the night with a sister of one of Cindy's best friends while she was growing up. She found out that we were coming and insisted that we sleep at her house. I think it's not too far from where Courtney's apartment!

Once more...enjoy your day, Everyfriend!

Amy · June 03, 2024, 10:27:33 AM

Posted photos of a tree that my friend has but doesnt know the name. Loads of flowers.
Rick, does this look anything like your tree.

RAMMEL · June 03, 2024, 10:46:44 AM

Quote from: Amy on June 03, 2024, 10:27:33 AMRick, does this look anything like your tree.

My only remaining trees are a Japanese maple (I think), and a pine tree.
The purple picture looks to me like a Rhododendron. The yellow, - I have no idea, but it's a very nice looking tree.

Amy · June 03, 2024, 11:02:19 AM

Rick, thank you..The lady said that it was a gift a few years back and they didn't tell her the name. The bees sure love it too!

Amy · June 04, 2024, 07:09:11 AM

Good morning..

Temp is going to tickle the 80's today. Good day to stay in. Taking van back in to fix the problem on the a/c neighbour is picking me up then taking back when finished. Grass is close to being cut again...maybe tomorrow. I didn't get at the quilt as I had other jobs take precedence and I still have one to finish that today.

Jane,your time there has flown by fast it seems!!

Better get a move on and get things done or even started here.

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

JaneS · June 04, 2024, 08:36:48 AM

Good Morning Everyfriend! I'm up,had my breakfast and I'm finishing my coffee with you! I don't know what today will bring but when I finish here, I'll go get dressed and take my morning walk. Cindy is already at work in her office corner.

It's going to get hot later but right now, it's only 70 degrees heading for the high 80s. I need to walk before it gets up there!

AMY, You're not putting off working on the quilt on purpose, are you?

I better go get dressed before the temp starts rising. Have a good day, better than yesterday but not as good as tomorrow! And don't forget to share it with us!

Amy · June 04, 2024, 03:52:27 PM

Just waiting on the call for the vehicle.

Jane, for what needs to be done requires thought and not just 40 -60 min to get it done right. I did manage to cut the binding out and will sew and press that tomorrow......maybe. They are calling for rain tomorrow so that will be my excuse to high tail it to the sewing room. Grass can wait till Fri..I hope.
