ReplyDeleteI hope you are having a good weekend. We're expecting bad weather - I don't much care for bad weather - although it is rather interesting. :) Hugs!
And I forgot to say, I LOVE your header!!! Your artwork is just delightful, and the way you have it with the title of your blog, the rose and little bird off the edges...clearly, you have talent and skills! :)
ReplyDeleteHello Mrs. Smith,
DeleteOh yes, such weather can be interesting, perhaps a little exciting, but also very worrisome. I do hope the weather has not caused any damage for you.
We have been having perfectly wonderful spring weather, but I hear it's going to warm up quite a bit this week.
I am so happy to know that you like my header. I really appreciate your kind encouragement.
So wonderful to see you here!
:) Hope
