When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.

FOR THOSE OF US HERE ON DS THIS STATEMENT CAN BE OH, SO....TRUE. WE CAN FAR LONGER THAN NECESSARY IN THE DEEP ABYSS BECAUSE WE DO NOT SEE THAT WE CAN CREATE A DOORWAY OR WINDOW TO LET IN THE LIGHT OR TO LEAVE THE SITUATION. THIS TYPE OF THINKING TAKES A GREAT DEAL OF PRACTISE AND THE BELIEF THAT WE CAN CONTROL/CHANGE OUR THOUGHTS/EMOTIONS/MINDSET ETC. OFTEN WE ARE TETHERED TO OUR PRISIN BY A TENUOUS THREAD THAT WITH A LITTLE OF THE RIGHT KIND OF THOUGHT AND A GREAT DEAL OF PERSERVERENCE CAN BE BROKEN. IN THIS WAY, WE CAN CHANGE OUR FOCUS AND SLOWLY EMERGE FROM THE LIVING HELL OF DEEP DEPRESSION. MY, I AM BEING VERY PHILOSOPHICAL TODAY.
ENOUGH OF THAT!! TODAY IS ANOTHER GLORIOUS DAY!! YESTERDAY WAS A WARM DAY WITH A LOVELY STEADY RAINFALL. THE GARDENS AND GRASS NEEDED A GOOD OLD MOTHER NATURE BATH. BONUS...I DON'T HAVE TO WATER!!
WHAT SHALL I DO TODAY??/UM....NOT SURE, MAYBE FINIISH MY BOOK, A LITTLE CLEANING, SOME JEWELLERY MAKING, SIT BY MY GARDENS, MAKE BLUEBERRY VINIGRETTE??? MAYBE ALL OF THE ABOVE OR NONE OF IT. WE SHALL SEE WHICH WAY THE WIND BLOWS.
THIS TIME IN A WEEK I WILL BE WAKING UP ALONE AS HUBBY WILL HAVE BEEN GONE THE DAY BEFORE...BOOHOO!!
WELL, I THINK I WILL MAKE MY BED AND CLEAN THE LITTER BOX ( OH, JOY!!!lol).
I'LL BE IN TOUCH. DEBBIE

Hi Stranger, Yeah I know I\'m the one who has not been managing to make it here very often lately. Not sure why but my brain is just not functioning at top parr lately.
Our weather continues to basicaly suck. The most we\'ve managed has been less then two solid days without some amount of rain, the winds are whipping and most days are some shade of grey.
I ended up bringing all my plants in off my deck into the green house and they are at least happy now and blooming like crazy. My sweet yellow (tiny) tomatoes are growing like crazy and I\'m hoping to have some ripe in another week or so.
Don\'t ya just love that litter box! Everyone enjoys the cats here but only one does \'the box\'.
take care xo
