Relax It’ll come together
God has everything Under Control
Be still, and know that I am God…
Psalm 46:10
We need to get away at times
From life's demanding ways
And find some quiet, little nook
in which to dream or pray.
A small escape from daily trials
that temper joys of life and burdens
us with little fears that add to tears of strife
A private place where we can be
alone in God's embrace and dream,
a little, and dwell,
a little in arms of Holy Grace.
A place to rest our heart and soul
against what is to be when returned
to what we left and what we can't foresee.

GOOD MORNING !
Another new day to do the best we can with what we’ve got ! It’s always good to start a new day. By the end of day hopefully there will be a few things I can count as blessings.
I look around and find my days so repetitive that sometimes one week blends into the next. Get up go to work Monday through Friday. Come home due some chores, go to bed, sleep, get up and do it all again.
Thankfully the weekends have a little more variety. I’m not complaining, it probably a good thing I lead a quiet life as I wouldn’t be able to keep up with much else.
One nice thing is that the weather has warmed up and I can finally wear some of my warm weather clothing. A change to lighter weight shirts and pants is nice. I rarely wear dresses or skirts as they are too dressy for the office I work in. It is strictly casual.
I love Capri’s and wear them often too. This past weekend I got some sun and have a nice tan started. That makes those short sleeved outfits look a little better too. Sunshine always makes me feel better for sure.
I’ve got my first cup of good coffee done so I’m off to work – hope you have a great day!
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
What do I want to take home from my summer vacation?
Time.
The wonderful luxury of being at rest.
The days when you shut down the mental machinery
that keeps life on track and let life simply wander.
The days when you stop planning, analyzing,
thinking and just are. Summer is my period of grace.
Ellen Goodman
May your summer months be joyous and fun…
And above all, blessed with love,
Ma

Yes I got quite a tan too on my little break.The sunshine sure does make you feel better.The flowers look brighter too.Nothing but rain rain rain this week so far. So I have no suntan showing I am afraid.I have even had to put pacamacs (raincoats) on my flower tubs this morning LOL!! In the shape of plastic carrier bags from the supermarket,to save the flowers from drowning LOL!!I always do this in heavy rains and it prolongs the flower heads.Plants to me are like humans I think our top knots would hang down low if we were out in all that rain with no cover over us .He-He.I hope you have a lovely sunshiny day and a few smiles along the way.Don't work too hard.I love the child graphic at the beginning of your posting.Take Care God Bless Kath astoriasand http://journals.aol.co.uk/astoriasand/MYSIMPLERHYMES
