Last thing that made you smile?

[LPBeier]

My Dad gave up his driver's license today. No, that didn't make me smile, though I am really proud of him.

What made me smile is when he said that he made the decision to just do it after I drove to and from his place about an hour away from here. He said that he has every confidence in the world in my driving and none in his. This is the same man that used to criticize everything I did behind the wheel!!!

Working on something I've wanted for some time now. An herb garden..I am having so much fun doing this..I was afraid It might be to much for me as I haven't done any digging and working with soil for several years..But I did it and it felt so good. I put in 2 kinds of oregano, 6 flat leaf parsley, 2 dill, 2 sage,6 basil,2 thyme, garlic and onion chives, I also put in 2 watermelon and 2 armenian cucumbers in the back garden with the tomatoes...I got a bonus as I was giving all I put in a drink a little hummingbird came and helped himself from my hose..Wonderful day for me and I'm still smiling.

Doin' my usual porch settin'. The sky is awesome...streaks of salmon, aqua, peach, baby blue. Colors that don't have names. I'm also being "buzzed" by the hummingbirds that have found the feeder. I think I'm going to have to wear a hardhat from now on. They're wild little critters. Temp is about 75F and essentially no humidity, slight breeze. Thelma, Violet and Tumble (kitties) are close by and the milkie dish isn't empty yet. What a night on the porch!!!!

We sat out on our patio this evening with a glass of wine and listened to Prairie Home Companion with the cool breeze blowing and the birds singing. It was glorious.

Being outside is wonderful..I love to just sit and wait for hummingbirds to flit overhead...They are such beautiful creatures.

Been outside most of the day and have nearly been blown off the hill with the winds.

Right now I'm sitting in my "regular" porch settin' chair, having an adult beverage and enjoying the sight of the sun getting lower and the shadows getting longer.

At any rate, Tumble just whizzed across the porch, flopped down and dropped off soundly to sleep.

Looking at his content, relaxed little self feeling safe put a big smile on my face.
