My talents are gifts to others

 Offering my talents fully as gifts to others today. And am thankful that I prayed to be open to receiving however God is willing to bless me today. Every hour has been full of wonder today! Thank you God!

Be courageous in handling and dealing with our fears

 Thought....If we could be courageous in handling and dealing with our fears, we could enjoy more fully the excitement and joy that life brings.

(background... Think about how fear and excitement feel in your body. When you experience the intensity of excitement, do you ever feel you need to "stop" it before you cry or something like that? If fear can be overwhelming, so can joy (although the overwhelm is more like fear of the unknown). But if you can turn fear into triumph, then how much more would be the fruit of joy?)

WOW Wednesday. What made you say "WOW" today?

 WOW! Wednesday is here and almost gone in a heartbeat. What did you do or experience that made you say "WOW" today? For me...how clear, bright and sunny it has been when the forecast has thundershowers. I guess when there is a "chance" of one thing to happen, it still leave room for other stuff to happen....just sayin'.

Mojito Monday!

 Mojito Monday!

I thought I would experiment with my water, so I squeezed half a lime and chopped/bruised a handful of mint into a pint of water. It was good, refreshing and with the mint, it was also kinda filling. Next time I will try it with some ginger.

It's the little things

 2 wonder moments today...hubby had sent a text that had us laughing and singing the theme song from Spongebob Squarepants, AND the boys talking to each other in French at home....Nice one!

It was a squirrely day

 Part 1...

Part 2 of the Squirrel Saga...

...We were enjoying a sunny Saturday and hubby comes out of the garage with a handful of...SQUIRREL! He caught it! It was a red squirrel (as identified by my son) and it was so cute. SO we put it in a glass vase (large and tall with an open top), fed it, and then released it down by the zoo. It didn't want to leave us and scurried up my son and tried to cozy in....but that didn't work out too well (with the claws and all ), so both got scared and parted ways. Hope the squirrel makes a good home wherever it is .

Chattin' it up...in "Squirrel"

 As I was gardening yesterday, I watched a squirrel turn the corner into the garage. I left the doors open so it could get out for some time, but it did not appear to have left. When I came home with the boys, I went to open the garage and the squirrel peeped it's head out of the drop cloths and then ducked back in. As I stood there with my son, I peeled back the drop cloth and it was all cute and cuddly in a ball. Then it stared at me, opened up......and proceeded to talk to me in "squirrel", while still laying on its back, loungin'.

I was saying it was not going to find food in here, and it was convinced it was not moving from there for today. But my son "helped" it out of its cozy lounge position and it ran and hid....needlesstosay, it had a warm place to stay for the night

I love mornings

 "I wake amidst the morning chorus. Each song sung to its highest using every note and melds in resonance with one another. On the dawn of day break, the chorus decrescendos as the sun peaks over the horizon. The night is broken and a new day is born!" ~ ESC

THAT is why I love mornings! Good morning !

My plan A rests with God

 Someone asked me what my plan B was last week for my day and I realized, all plans I have are plan B or C, as I expect that God's plan A will be something better than I have planned. In the end, all things work out quite perfectly if you are open to receiving something better...

Hmmm...donating the laundry...

 Okay, it's a GOOD MORNING somewhere!! (as my hubby always says) Went for a walk with a friend and now...laundry....and laundry....did I mention laundry?? LOL If anyone wants some kids clothes, I am GLADLY donating!!

CHOOSE to receive the good

 Good morning!

Today I CHOOSE to receive all the good that God has planned for me and not to block the good from coming in. All energy, all insight, all joy, all love, all happiness, all abundance...And I pray the same for all those I am connected to. Enjoy a wonder-filled day!

And so it is! Waking up into what you want

 Good morning! I woke up energized and with a flat tummy. WOW! What would you be inspired to do if you woke up into a new day with what you wanted?

I drank a tall glass of water and had a green smoothie for breakfast. Keepin' up with the good in my life Enjoy a great day!!

Open to receiving miracles and enjoying the fullness of life

 Okay, okay....a shockingly amazing day...things worked out in ways I could have NEVER expected. BEING in the moment, making mental "movies" with my son, in the right place at the right time (like being offered to train with one of the world's top bodybuilders for free...), and opportunities to grow

all over the place...Ahhhhh, and with warm weather to boot

When you are open to receiving miracles and enjoying the fullness of life in each moment (since God has a great vision for my life than I do), you can be richly surprised in a great way.

But the day is not done yet...

Morning routine with help

 Swept the floor, cleaned and put away the dishes, loaded dishwasher, wiped down the counters and stove, cooked breakfast AND with my trusty helper at my side for most of it. Thanks "bubbin" for all your help
