 (5x7 3 Umbrella Girls Illustration Print by hellosmallworld)

      Sooooooo...yesterday I was talking about the 'better weather' we're having, and today?!...RAIN!!!...like...ALL DAY!! Ugh! Such is life, right?! You say something nice, and the next thing you know...it rains all over your complement!! LOL

      Whatever!!!...we're just gonna get us a good umbrella...and move on! ^_^ ...

      Don't get too excited. We're not moving on to anything in particular. :-)) There's nothing special going on around here. Nothing!...Well, unless you call having a nice breakfast of seafood salad, tomatoes, a banana, and a cup of hot green tea, special! :-] ...

      Although one of hubby's clients 'did' think he was special enough to give him a large bag of different kinds of tea! :-) There were some flavors in the bag that I haven't had for years!...They were prior to my green tea phase. :-)) Too bad I don't have this box (below) to put my teas in!...

      I love the butterfly carved in the front!! :-)

      Wait!...There 'is' something else special going on around here!..Well that already happened...this morning!...The physical therapist worked my aching muscles to a frazzle!!...O-U-C-H!!! ^_^ I tried to get some sympathy for the fact that my arthritis is all flared up...because of the rain. But she wasn't having any of it! :-)) It was true though!!!...OUCH!

      I only did the upper body exercises for today though. She gave me a break on the lower body ones....My legs and hips would not have taken it!! NOPE!...But I'll do some moderately altered ones before bed tonight....Or at least I'll try!! :-] I promise!!

      Well...that's it. Except for some flowers! :-) ...

      Isn't it pretty?! :-) ... And no...I didn't make it...I wish I did! :-) But nope!...This 'pretty' is all callmemimi 's..."Good Work, fellow Etsian!" :-)

      Here's some more pretty flowers too!...

      And they're sitting on top of the cutest booties ever! :-) Oooo! The knit work involved here would be intense for me!...That's why I'll leave the knitting to her! ^_^ ... By the way, if any of you is interested in some tiny 'crochet' flowers, my Wuglyees Etsy shop is full of them! ^_^

      Okay...I'm off to 'try' to do a little crocheting. Or take a nap. :-)) Whichever comes first!...Wanna take a guess which one will come first?! ^_^ Have a good rest of the day, Everybody! ♥

Ode To Flowers

Ode to all loved flowers,
whatever color, shape or form.
You enthrall with sheer delight!
At other times, make my heart warm.

Whether photographed or made,
growing tall out in the yard;
In a vase or porch-side planter,
or just naturally unmarred;

Please know you always make me smile,
and lift my mood when I am down.
The world would be a different place
without a lot of you around!
