Thank you, T.O. for all the "blues". It has become my favorite color (goes well with silvery hair!)

Wishing you a successful job search,

Much love,
Edda

Hello Thankful one, thanks for the beautiful blue flowers, for us to enjoy, I personally enjoy all flowers including blue. I made your blue rose my screensaver, unique and beautiful! I miss you bunches, bunches of flowers that is. As I have said to you, you have inspired me through your flower postings to start having flowers on the kitchen table, even though they are store bought. I have a clan of baby and toddler bunnies that have found a safe haven in my yard and they have eaten most of my flower plantings including the 60 packs of flower seeds that sprouted and quite a few of store impatients. Well, if they tasted good and made them satisfied it is ok. LOL.

Keeping you in prayer for meaningful employment.

God Bless
Marie

T.O. Thank you for all the beautiful blue pictures. I especially like the ones of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

I echo Betty when she says "be safe when doing the roof."

Betty Yes, not literally my babies of course

A neighbour started this phrase when, 15 years ago I had 2 little black kittens, 3 weeks of age. After that she always referred to all my cats as "the babies" and I've continued it. Obviously I've included the annual crop of buzzard chicks as 'mine.'

I'm glad they're not! Imagine having to 'boot out' your children at 3 months of age and watch them from a distance as they struggle to catch their food!!!!!!!!

Marie, I love the way you refer to your "clan of baby and toddler bunnies" . I can picture them romping around in your yard. In spite of all your work, they seemed to have known where a good MaMa Marie lived. There is Marie standing on a back porch, completely overcoming all the frustration of lost work as you smile at "your little clan" munching away on the very tasty breakfast, lunch and dinner that you have provided. Animals know where love abides.
Jude, I know we all echo the same sentiment in our prayers, that T.O. be kept safe while doing the roof. While you are glad that the chicks are actually not yours, I am also glad that "my lake" is actually not mine. Your comment "Imagine having to 'boot out' your children at 3 months of age and watch them from a distance as they struggle to catch their food!!!!!!!!" was good food for thought. Somehow, it seems that this is somewhat what life is like. If we have children, no matter how old they become there are those struggles of "booting them out" in a very loving way and "watching them from a loving distance as they struggle." I don't know about you, but the individuals I hold dearest as friends, are those who have had and do have the courage to do the same to me when in the depth of our friendship, their heart knows that this is what I need most at some particular time.
Blessings on all as we begin a new week of life and prayers for T.O.'s safety as he "pays" his rent.

Jude,
would you agree with me that the clouds top left in T.O.´s cloud picture look (roughly) like Great Britain and Ireland? I do not know what the island south of Ireland is, though

. Maybe Gratefulness Island?

Juliana,
Yes, you're right about the clouds! Gratefulness island sounds good to me.

Betty,
I know what you mean about good friends giving us a 'boot.' I've had many a smarting dignity at such times! Who me? Why me? etc.

Jude

Here's a flower for all of you. Isn't blue beautiful? Did you realize that all the letters of the word blue are in beautiful?

I've caught T.O.'s bug!! I thought this one was really a rich colour. Pity it isn't bigger. Jude
