♥♥ As I look outside my window ♥♥ 

It is still rather dark, of course, it is quite early.  I was up around 5 , it is now something to 6. I am beginning to hear cars passing by.m

♥♥ Right now I am ♥♥ 

I am working on this post sitting in the living room in my reading chair, with my feet propped up on the hassock.I am so comfy, I feel like I may have a bit of a doze in my near future!

♥♥ Thinking and pondering ♥♥  

It is now  mid afternoon and I  am rather pooped.  Ive  worked for over an hour in the  bedroom .. (guest room)  putting winter clothes away.   purging 2 bags full of  clothing that is now too large for me. And  trying to put things away in an organized  fashion;   At my age and infirmity,  which is slowly improving an hour is about all I can  expend at a time.  Since our family is coming  late June  for 4 days,  the clock is ticking for me to  get this in good order and have time to  do a bit of redecorating!

♥♥How am I feeling ♥♥ 

With my  new diet,    I am finding   that  pushing myself   doing  harder jobs  is  not a picnic..  I came downstairs to work on this  sort of famished,  so I am eating a cucumber!....  very slowly to make it last!

♥♥ On the breakfast plate ♥

My usual fruited yogurt with a dash of walnut crumbles on top  and a cup of  coffee!  On WW  that is 10  of my  34 daily points!

♥♥ On the dinner plate ♥♥

I am making a  low count veggie   tomato sauce  to eat over  a small  serving of pasta and a tossed salad. Thankfully,  veggies  are mostly pointless depending on how they're   cooked or dressed!

♥♥ What I'm wearing ♥♥ 

A pair of tan shorts and a red tee!

 ♥♥ On my reading pile ♥♥

Chapters from  Deuteronomy, Psalms, Isaiah  Revelation

♥♥On my TV this week ♥♥ 

Youtube channels,  for example , Location, Location, Location,  Escape to the Country,   and The Food Network, and HGTV, old seasons of Father KNows Best..  I am a sucker for the old shows!!!Also, hubs and I enjoy watching the old Dick Van Dyke program before bedtime! This never changes  because  usually there is nothing on the  regular channels that interests me!

♥♥ Looking around the house ♥♥

I finally got the Easter decor packed away and have  decorated the lower level with  lovely early summer  dressing in blues and    a bit of hot pink and yellows!  in the   flowers here and there! I am so pleased to have gotten this far along!

♥♥A Favorite Vlog ♥♥
  I am loving   learning how to do loose  water color techniques. and this is a favorite!

Sorry, not really a vlog  but this is jsut so grand!!!

  1. Pretty blue decor and I think I have that exact same blue angel holding the two doves, a gift long ago from my late mother-in-law and one of my favorite pieces. Hope you have a wonderful week!

  2. How lovely to be working on watercolor. I have tried it a few times but never with a formal lesson or anything. It's something I have always admired.

  3. Doing good with your decluttering. Love the watercolor. I'm trying to do some but not quite catching it yet. Have a great week

Farewell

 After  17 years of   blogging  I am  pretty sad to  just fade  out  with  hardly  anyone showing any   farewell,  concern  about my  surger...
