#Throwbackthursday is always a look back at something special. A great job, or accomplishment, a great moment or a great memory. Today is no different 😊❤️
Looking back is Awesome! Especially with memories like this 😊 The road forward is exciting as well ❤️
Have a great Throwback Thursday!

I found this one and it brought back some great memories! Jo, Jacob, me and scout when she was just a pup on a boat at the river enjoying a beautiful sunset… Don’t get much better 😊
Have a great evening!

Why do I get up earlier than any other day on my 1 day off… ? My eyes 👀 pop open on Sunday morning (usually around 4:30’ish) & I’m wide awake! BUT, I’ve already done all my chores and I’ve got time to do a little pickin before everyone else is up – So I got that goin for me 😊
- Watering ✅
- Feeding my Koi ✅
- Took out trash ✅
- Chill on swing and do some picking 💥
- Dont forget to publish your blog ✅
After the chores and things are done ✅ and before breakfast 🍳 I found some time to do a little picking. It’s gonna rain 🌧 so I got that goin for me too 😊
There is some rain coming, I can smell it in the air. I’m gonna enjoy that as well!
“Whenever it rains, and its earthy scent — the petrichor — hits my senses, memories come flashing and I go back in time.”
Y’all have a great Sunday!

Do you ever get so immersed in something, that time just disappears. This morning I grabbed my guitar 🎸 and sat down on the porch to watch the sky light up & started picking around on it, the next thing I knew, it was 8am… 2 1/2-3 hours were gone 🤔 It felt like 5 minutes… Where does that time go? And wouldn’t it be Awesome if we could go there on command… 😮
I found a moment of zen that last 3 hours…
“Do not speak to us of the greatness of poetry, Of the torches wisping in the underground, Of the structure of vaults upon a point of light. There are no shadows in our sun, Day is desire and night is sleep. There are no shadows anywhere. The earth, for us, is flat and bare. There are no shadows. Poetry Exceeding music must take the place Of empty heaven and its hymns, Ourselves in poetry must take their place, Even in the chattering of your guitar.” ~ Wallace Stevens
Have a great Sunday!
