Weather: A "balmy" 79 degrees....but feels like 80....

I just checked the temperature.
When I woke up this morning I knew the temp had changed and it had to be humid. My body ALWAYS tells me...usually through "swelling" in various parts of it and or some other odd manifestations. Blah!
As I let "Danny O'Shea" out the door I was hit with a "balmy breeze" and the familiar smell of......"mold." Phew!
Oh yes...we are back to January weather here.

I'm just grateful for the five minutes of "cold weather" we did get near the holidays. Makes it more "festive" and all here in the South.
Plus..it wasn't all that bad at all and it did help clean up the air a bit.

Good thing Miss Priss and I wore our "new" hats. We may not get to wear them again for another....hummm....year? Who knows. You can never tell down here.

Here's the deal though on my hat....I found it at "Whole Foods" and I thought it was a GRAND ideal.

It's made out of recycled plastic bottle caps and plastic bottles. They spin those things into a "Fleece." IS that amazing? I mean, it looked just like "normal" fleece whatever normal is. HA!

I of course loved the ideal and the hat and it was a rainy, dreary day when I was at the store and that helped me motivate on buying it by thinking....
"I might REALLY get to wear it." And I did. For one day. I wore it all through a lunch visit and all through a visit to a coffee house......so there you go.

I have it "saved" in the coat closet with our scarves and "Winter" coats...in case we get another "cold snap".....but I'm not entirely banking on that happening.

Thank You Mary!

I learned of "Miss Mary" (everyone is a "Miss" in the South or a "Ma'am or a Sir") at "Isabella's Closet" several months back after hearing her "praises being sung" because of her various "Banner talents".

I have now come to know her as well myself..as many of you have and I've learned what a very kind and sweet lady she is.

She's been in a bit of a "health battle" the past few weeks and I feel badly for her as one who truly knows how those things work as well......blah!

Please send a little prayer her way if will you.

Despite her illness and distress......she still made me my very COOL "new banner" and sent it to me just last night...after "polishing off" some last minute "touch ups" on it for
"The Secret Gardener" and I soooooo......LOVE it!!!
Don't you too?? For anyone that KNOWS me.....it is SO "me"! HA!

In fact....that could be "me" standing in the doorway of that cottage......sigh.

Now...I am very not savvy on doing all these types of things.....so I am glad that someone is! I mean I do what I can but she doesn't it FAR better and besides....
I like her work. :~)

PLEASE consider contacting her if you need a little "help" yourselves with your blog banners.

It is fun to change things out once in awhile and it is so NEAT to have someone be able to use their "giftings and talents" that they have been given to help me and so many others accomplish the things we want and need to do.

I like it when people "network" for good.
That's what I am all about.

That way....we can all get a lot of important and much needed things done all over this WORLD!

Tis true...."Two ARE better than one" you know!

"Kudos" to you Mary on another great job!
I appreciate you and am praying you will feel better soon!!

Y'all check out her blog site will you?
It's always nice to meet new people.....expand your world today.
