Gloomy

That's what the weather has been like here. It's been cold, there's been snow and there's been rain. What there hasn't been is sunshine. I spent the majority of my day off laying on the couch under a blanket either sleeping or watching tv. I think I'm starting to sound like a broken record with that line. I seem to be saying that quite a lot lately.

Enough of that. There was some sunshine in my mothers day even if it wasn't the kind that mother nature provides.
 My wonderful children gave me gifts.
From my daughter I got the pretty bird feeder and the happiness is homemade sign that will be perfect in my craft room. From my son I got the windchimes which I'm told he picked out all on his own.

I love the "Happiness is homemade," and I'm so glad you have a loving family. Good luck on getting some sunshine back!

Ella said...

I'm so sorry!
I didn't know you had children and I didn't congratulate you on Mother's Day!
Shame on me! And yesterday's comment was incomplete ... I wanted to tell you that you are a real hero because you work with the public in these times ...
Can a little hug fix the mistake I made?
You received very beautiful gifts! Enjoy them!

I love the feeder & chimes!

Lovely gifts from your 'kids'.

Rose said...

I love the gifts...wish I coukd hear the wind chimes. I think it is the weather because all I want to do is sleep when it is dark and dreary. I do some better when it is sunny.

Cold weather here, too. I watch TV with a blanket and heating pad. Decadent!

all three are perfect for you, they know you well is what the gifts say.. what you describe when you come home and how you feel is what bob and i do every day, 7 days a week for 9 weeks ugh.... no blankets needed except bob covers his legs with the dog blanket because AC makes his legs cold. ugh.

Wonderful mother's day gifts. I know you had a good day.

You're going to have a beautiful sunny day soon that finds you outside with so much energy. You'll go explore spring.

Have a fabulous day, Ann. Big hug to you and lots of scritches to Gibbs. ♥♥♥

Ella, No problem. Most of my visitors have been with me for a long time and know about my son and daughter and I guess I just assume everyone knows...lolT Thanks so much and a hug can fix anything :)

CrystalChick I need to get some cleaning done but never have the energy
