hi angel friends :) Happy sunflower hugs :)

Hi Angel Friends! :) BIG GROUP SUNFLOWER HUG!!! :) i've been thinking of you all, and have missed you all! my family and i hope everyone is doing well, and enjoying some good days this week :) i'm so glad, and thankful DS is back, and that we all are getting to write to eachother :) i'm hopeful with each day, the site will be working better and better, and that all will be situated, and that we all adapt to the new DS site very well :) i'm here for you all, our dear angel friends. :) it feels good to be writing, and connecting with you all :) 

my family and i are doing well :) It's been a long week, and missing the DS time, on monday ,and tuesday, but when the site went active today, i was so thrilled, and wanted to do some sunny jumps up and down! hehe! :) i've been hoping the site would be up, and when it finally was, i felt a deep thankfulness, and couldn't wait to sign on. On Monday, i did some early morning gardening, planting marigolds, and more popcorn plants :) i also gave our plants a good watering :) The DS notice mentioned about the site doing the upgrade around that mid-morning on monday. i kept busy, and active, writing some cards, notes, and also texted with friends, had some phone calls too :) i was hanging out with my family, and in our garden :) 

On Tuesday, we went to get some treats in the early morning, and i completed a really nice writing week :) i wrote a nice new letter for my ds mum (Bloss), and i also wrote cards, and put together a treasures package :) i checked the site often, to see if it was back online. it felt different, not being on ds much on tuesday, with the site not working, but i did think of you all often, and kept busy, and watched history channel, and travel channel tv shows :) i also tended our plants :) We had a nice rainfall on tuesday night into today, which is really nice, and replenishing for the plants :) i noticed on the new DS, there's not a pictures upload option yet, but i did make this new garden tour video on monday, and would love to  include the link :) if you click on it, or if you highlight the link, and right click, "open in a new window, it should open up" :) It's a special tour of our gardens :)

Today, my mom and i went to the post office, during the early morning :) it went really well :) i had some nice social interaction, and public speaking :) they have new space themed stamps there, i bought some extra stamps :) sweet!!! :) i'm so happy, excited, and thrilled about the cards, letter, and treasures we mailed :) we love our post office adventures, and saw some nice nature along the way,  including some summer time wildflowers :) i've been adapting to the new DS style/site, and reconnecting with friends on here :) 

On our new hugbooks, i noticed ds is still working on the hugbooks. i'm not able to read the entire hugs, it cuts off at 2 and a half sentences. i did write to DS about it, on the DS members community board :) i'm hopeful they'll be able to sort things out with it. :) i also hope we'll be able to upload pictures, and especially being able to upload pictures into my journals here, i would love to be able too :) i know it's gonna take some time, to get use too the new site, and it's features, and DS working on things, getting things running smoothly. :) i'm sure all will be running well, and i'll definitely keep checking the updates on the DS members community :) 

Happy birthday Knee! (Kneedeep) :) my family and i have a very special happy birthday wish, for our dear friend :) Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! :) Happy birthday dear Knee! :) Happy birthday to you! :) Knee, we hope you enjoyed a wonderfully happy birthday, and we hope all of your wishes come true :)
