but I doubt they saw of the countryside...LOL!

Should have read "but I doubt they saw A LOT of the countryside".

[Mama_Bear]

Ahhh..........what a nice way to start the day! Thank you both for opening the doors to Amy’s Place so beautifully each day. I love The Entertainer!

[jaycee]

Yes, I sure have wanted to do that. I could have done the whole thing over and deleted the bad one but it just involved too much! Sometimes when the phone rings a lot, it does cause me to get overly aggressive with my posts! LOL!

He and I had been talking about the books he has read lately and I told him I would get the ones in paperback...so he called me back to tell me he was going to mail me a couple of good paperbacks. I told him ‘he was the sweetest brother in the world.’

One book was “Same Kind of Different as Me” and the other is “Water for Elephants”. He says they are terrific so we will see! He told me not to let the title for the second one turn me off. Gotta get busy or I will fire myself..LOL!

Hi there, Majie.
So good to see you again this moring.
Thank you for always coming by with your replies to pings.

Hope you are having a Warm Fuzzy Wednesday.

See you next time!

[jaycee]

What a precious opening! I love it. And I sure love ‘the Entertainer’. I used to try that on the piano but I just couldn’t do it fast enough! I had a friend who could! Every time she visited me I would make her play the piano! (she loved doing it).

[JustAmy]

Good morning, Rus.
I loved the story in the ODB message this morning.
Thank you for sharing these with us every day.

Have a Wonderful Wednesday.

[JustAmy]

Praying that you continue to feel no pain today.

[Billie]

Thank you, Lori and jaycee. That little boy is such a sweetie - Amy sent the picture to me quite a while ago and had been waiting for the "lightbulb" moment to finish it!

I love The Entertainer, too. Always wanted my parents to "make" me take piano lessons like many of my friends had to, but even though my grandmother taught piano lessons and my dad was musical (he played harmonica and guitar), "we" didn't have a piano!

I took a few lessons after I got married. :)

“There’s a holy, high vocation
Needing workers everywhere;
’Tis the highest form of service,
’Tis the ministry of prayer. —Woodworth

Intercessory prayer is life’s real work.”

Thank you, for the beautiful devotion.

Good morning, Polly.
I'm so happy to hear that Kobe felt well enough to go to school yesterday.
And that you are feeling better also.

This flu business is scary.
With all that I've been reading, I am confused on whether to get flu shots for Marissa.

Hubby and I get flu shots every October but Marissa has never had one.
I will let my doc make the decision on whether hubby and I get the shot for Swine Flu.

Hope you are having a Warm Feathery Wednesday. :)

[JustAmy]

Happy Tuesday, TCP.

I will be keeping your Aunt Mickey in my prayers. I will be praying that the surgery is scheduled early next week.

I know she will recover quicker if her family is there. Have a safe trip and a lovely visit.

Just listened to Roy Clark. WOW! I didn't care for the beginning, but my gosh I had no idea he could play like that! Amazing!

[Billie]

Am listening to Marty Robbins’ La Paloma now and loving it. Thank you, fewz. I just love his voice. A couple of weeks ago I listened to lots of music online - country, and oldies, etc. His “Don’t Worry ‘Bout Me” is really a pretty one! Many of those older songs have such a distinct ‘sound’ to them, whether it’s their voice, or the background music, but it’s nice, whatever it is. :)

[JustAmy]

Good morning, Billie.
Ahhh .... another delightful Opener.
I've always liked The Entertainer and you picked the cutest graphic to accompany it.
Thank you!!

Have a Warm Fuzzy Wednesday filled with Warm Fuzzy Music. :)

[pollywog]

Great Big HAPPY smile! This Eagle is so beautiful...I am bound to feel better just enjoying this!
Thanks.

We don’t get the flu shots. Hubby has always got them until last year. He would get sick every year..I didn’t get the shots and never got the flu.

[pollywog]

That clothes line is so cute full of puppies. Oh I love to raise dogs, but any more all the red tape makes it impossible.

Long for the simple days when we were free to make our own decisions!!!

[JustAmy]

Good morning, MamaBear.
It is so nice seeing you here everyday.

Wishing you a Warm Fuzzy Wednesday.

[Billie]

Ohhhhh, what a great bluebird graphic!!!

Thanks, Amy - thanks for SENDING that darling little boy's picture to me to 'do something with'!

I am off to work in the yard a bit.

HUGS!

[Mama_Bear]

Oh, that looks a lot like my Chachi!

Good morning, Amy. I am painting again today. Almost have the entryway finished. Better get back at it. You have a nice day!

[Majie Purple]

Oops I meant so/sew wonderful on that sewing one not so/so!
A play on words thang!
Hope You already know! :)

BBL to keep going like before but I glanced at my replies & noticed that goof. Can’t stay right now.

Also noticed some of my typos,tiredness...but forgot the p in attempt before,etc...can’t remember other ones as I type this.

I yes, know I don’t have to correct my typos

I just want to if/when I see ‘em.
LOL!

& rest assured none, but my own have that effect on me.
Especially when it muddles my intended meaning/context.
:)

See Y’all later!
Take Care!
HUGS!
