I’m so glad..
I’m an only daughter..so
Home health care , shopping, cleaning, laundry, accountant, bill paying, and errand running was my bailiwick.

*Dear Diver Dave*

Have a wonderful day!

Happy New Year!

That picture from Hubble is part of my background screen. I modified it with a fairy reading from a book to the face of a crescent moon. That's from a painting by David Delamare.

I composited the image and put it as background. It's a great leaping-off point for imagination!

Speaking of which:

.

One Day

One day, we'll all be happy,
One day, we'll be content,
One day, we'll be aware of,
Exactly what God meant.

He told us we should love ourselves,
Just as we love our brother,
A purpose for life's bounty,
To share with one another.

One day we may accept that,
Begin to understand,
One day to spread the love of God,
In peace throughout the land.

One day to find contentment,
A day to feel so blessed,
We'll choose to be His servant,
And also be His guest.

I am the eldest of six!

My youngest sis lives upstairs from Mom, so she and her hubby usually do most of the aforementioned stuff.

My visit gave them a little break, so they could devote their time to their Twin Infant grandsons!

It is one of my Favorite Hubble Pics!

I get a new one every day from the Astronomy Picture Of the Day, a Daily FR thread that is maintained by FReeper “Sunken Civ”.

You might want to get on the APOD Ping list.

I would LOVE to see your adaptation of the picture.

Happy 2014!

Thanks for the beautiful words and scripture to ring in the new year. Many blessings to all!

Thanks Bob! Happy New Year, friend, to you and yours! May there be no limits God places on you or yours.

[MEG33]

~Beautiful, Bob~
Thank you for sharing your wonderful gift with us.
Your Scarlet Dreams Sunday was so appreciated and perfect with the
opening.
I have no white snowy branches but 6 Cardinals were hanging out in my
red berried youpon tree Sunday.
What a treat they are.

May God's Blessings flow to all in this New Year. Happy New Year JustAmy and everyone!

[MEG33]

My pleasure, Jane...Thank (((you))).

"I would LOVE to see your adaptation of the picture."

I may have lost the original work. All I have left is a smaller portion.

This is a link to the fairy reading, by David Delamare.

I also think I rotated the Hubble image so that the fairy could sit on the left of the opening, and read to the moon-face on the right side.

I would have to re-create it again to get the proper resolution.

[MEG33]

Six! What a great family time you have had.
I know the youngest sis loved the break..My son and daughter in law dote on their twin grandsons and help give the parents a break, too.

[MEG33]

Blessings to you! Thank you.

That is Cool! :-)

Most of them would fit right in here at FR.

[NicknamedBob]

"That is Cool!"

Yes, it is. I love being me, and the richness of blessings that fall on me like snowflakes.

(You may temper that with the knowledge that I have to tramp through the mud like the rest of you, if you wish. But it's all about attitude, I say.)

[MEG33]

Would love for them to join us!

[left that other site]

It is ALWAYS about attitude! ;-)

[Silentgypsy]

What a beautiful sentiment! Thannk you!

[left that other site]

I send them links to threads all the time.

All except for one sister who has a Che Guevara Fridge magnet.

She would not fit in around here, I’m afraid.

(She DOES have a lot of 60’s kitsch around her house...maybe that’s the reason)
