Random Order


 
A few random thoughts on this Friday morning . . .
 
1. I'm going to be a Grandma again. Or "Nanna" as my grandson calls me. He is going to be a big brother! Yeah...So happy, proud and excited.
2. We are just about ready to close on the house I moved out of in December . . .I was beginning to think this was never going to happen. (Heavy sigh of relief).
3. I love clouds. I don't like gray skies - but I love the clouds we get in Oregon this time of year...So majestic and beautiful.
4. I am ready for Spring and color.
5. I love to laugh.
6. I have a lot of things I want to do . . .and sometimes I feel a sense of panic because I am so anxious to do them all....NOW
7. I still love to read some of my favorite children's stories. And I read them to myself.
8. I feel honored when I witness miracles.
9. I LOVE dragonflies and swallows.
10. I miss holding hands with someone special.
11. I don't like the judges on American Idol this year - it kind of ruined the show for me.
12. I love listening to live music.
13. I love to drink fresh juice in the morning.
14. It's never too late to try something for the first time.

17. I love spontaneous get-togethers.

20. I am grateful for my dog - who forces me to get outside, even when I don't want to.
21. I love pistachios.
22. I've discovered I actually like Country music - not all, but a lot of it.
23. Making new friends is scary . . .but fun.

25. I have a love/hate relationship with the weekend.
26. Honey Nut Cheerios are really yummy.
27. I am not as organized as I would like to be but I am willing to accept this flaw.

29. Dreams are Weird!
30. I get so frustrated when I have a day off and can sleep in but wake up earlier than I do during the week.
31. Why do people wait until they are far away to tell you how they feel?
32. Shrimp salad rolls with peanut sauce.  Enough said.
33. A good pillow should never be underestimated. Same goes for good pots and pans.
34. My kitchen knives really need to be sharpened!
35. 10:00 in the morning is NOT too early for good chocolate.

  2. We don't know each other, but a lot of our random thoughts are similar. Maybe that is why I love your artwork so much!
