My week started out cheerily when my youngest daughter surprised me by bringing me a bouquet of purple Freesia from Trader Joe's. The fragrance is so wonderful I wish I could share it with you through cyberspace!
We have been enjoying beautiful warm weather just right for young friends to visit, run through the sprinkler and swing on the swings...
I had some tense hours wrestling with my computer this week, but was so glad to
have a spur of the moment lunch with my blogging friend
and mentor, Teresa Kasner on Saturday. In the midst
of lots of good conversation she gave me wise counsel, and encouragement.
Following are some of the reasons I found to be cheerful and recorded in my journal this week.

Hi Gracie, my friend! I enjoyed our lunch immensely, like I say, no one understands us bloggers like we do! :-) I'm looking forward to our next lunch. I did some research on the MacBooks.. you should go to the Apple.com website and do some research. I watched the Keynote speech where you can learn a lot. Want to go with me to MacPac and look at them? ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
ReplyDeleteI will go look at Apple.com and yes, I want to go look at MacPac with you :)
ReplyDeleteHi, Gracie!
ReplyDeleteOM! You are coming to Northern California???
I live in Chico, so if you come anywhere near here, I would love to meet with you for a chat!
I especially love your little illustration of the word of God open to your Psalm. Thanks for sharing that one.
