Dear New Day

Dear new Day,

I am up and I am thankful.

This day will give me new opportunities,

it opens new doors.

Don’t hesitate, go for it.

Embrace changes,

Be you and

enjoy each moment given.

Each moment is precious.

Make your day full of sunshine and smiles.

October – Enjoy Autumn

That is what I did today for the first time:

Put long sleeves on.

It is a beautiful day,

sunshine.

Autumn 

we love you

with the leaves changing colours,

leaves falling,

cozy evenings,

and hot drinks.

Get comfortable

and enjoy October with me!

 

Holiday time

In August I went on holiday to different places for short periods.

( Mallorca- Spain and Germany)

In Mallorca the palm trees were my favourite, ( see here)

In Germany the lakes for swimming were super.

This is the dress I bought in Mallorca.

With Spanish temperatures in Bavaria I could wear it again.

Here is the proof….. I went into this lake too….

yes, I did go deeper and swam, it was so refreshing.

What a view of the blue sky …… under the shade of a tree.

 

The flowers with all the different vibrant colours always bring a spectacular show.

I also have learnt how to make the best latte or cappuccino, with frothy milk.

Yummy.

Goes really well with a slice of Black Forest Gateau.

 

Life is good!

Enjoy every moment!

I do!

Don’t Worry

We all have our worries from time to time and

I always have to remind myself that things will work out.

We need to have faith.

In Luke 25 verse 12 it says:

Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life?

❤

Here are some more reminders for you,

and I wish you a worry free day!

 

 

Sometimes you have to stop worrying,

wondering and doubting.

Have faith that things will work out,

maybe not how you planned,

but just how it’s meant to be.

 

 

 

 

Every struggle in your life has shaped you

in to the person that you are today.

Be thankful for the hard times;

they can only make you stronger.

 

 

Enjoy the good in each moment,

and have a wonderful day!

 

Life is short

 

Life Is Short And Unpredictable.

Don’t waste another minute on the people, places and things that don’t make you happy.

 

I found this some time ago… go for it….

“in honour of the fact that life is short

wear your white shirts. get them pressed.
use your good dishes — everyday.
shave on weekends.
do not wait for special occasions.
do not tuck your best away in the drawers, in the back of the closet, in your heart.
don’t wait for holidays or invitations.
declare that your today is the special occasion.
call instead of emailing. (it feels so good to connect.)
go for coffee.
quit.
renounce your glory days. you’ve told all of those stories more than twice.
focus forward.
wear perfume for yourself. toss your only-wear-around-the-house clothes and let your good clothes graduate to around-the-house status.
intend to feel good all of the time.
write your book.
launch.
make great sex a priority. (this alone will make you more creative and free. on your death bed, you will think about all the great sex you had this lifetime.)
burn your to-do list.
write poetry. One a day.
make a point to be as encouraging as possible, as much as possible, to everyone possible.
don’t look back.
if you feel like you’re always failing, consider that this is part of being an artist. let it be a divine inclination. keep going.

eat real food.
often refuse to be in the presence of people who make you feel repressed, anxious, or pull your frequency down.
do not entertain haters.
send light to the haters.
give it away. you probably don’t need it and someone else does.
turn off the tv.
let it be easy.
burn candles. during the day.
fall in love. with yourself. with the person you’re with. with the persons in your orbit.
because no one is perfect, but you can let the love be perfect for the both of you.
because everyone — everyone — is a doorway to God.
because you can get there from here.
because life is short.”

~ Danielle LaPorte

An Award and my Garden

I received an award from Terry and I am very grateful that she thought of me! Thank you so much, Terry.

The Premio Dardos Award exists to acknowledge the values that every blogger shows in their effort to transmit cultural, ethical, literary, and personal values every day. These stamps were created with the intention of promoting fraternization between bloggers, a way of showing affection and gratitude for work that adds value to the Web.

 

There are no rules and I like to share this award with everybody. I can’t name all but a few! –

Rosy, Russ, Diana, Sandra, Carmen, Ralph, Arlen, Sylvia, Ute, Mathilda, Klaus, Wiley, Ladysonnenschein, Binky, Seyi, Harold, Rob, Sally, Gallivanta, Cathie, Paul, Maxima, Fred  and many more and all the bloggers I follow and enjoy but don’t know their name.

♥☼♥☼♥☼♥☼♥☼♥☼♥☼♥☼♥☼♥☼♥

And now an update on my garden as it was such a lovely sunny day today and I put more sweet things in my little garden. I had to smile and think of RoSy when I put his frog out. I know she likes them too!

 

 

Now some pictures of the other new bits and my strawberry plant which is doing so well.

Enjoy!

more hearts – I love my hearts!

My soon to be strawberries! – just need to find a cream tree! 🙂

I love Spring and I am ready for Summer and for  some peaceful times in my garden!

Wishing you all a wonderful rest of the week,

enjoy every moment and smell the flowers on the way!  

Smile, relax and be happy!

Sending out lots of love to all – you wonderful people!!

Big hugs!

 

Have you seen the Orples?

May I introduce Olivia and Oskar, the Orples from the neighbourhood.

They travel round quite a bit so I thought they might like to visit London too.

See my favourite bridge – Tower Bridge which opens up for tall ships.

Have a tasty picnic with me in Greenwich – help yourself Olivia and Oskar

or relax on the most beautiful bench!

I have to admit I fell in love with the Orples and it would be great if they came to visit.

Olivia and Oskar you are always very welcome to play anywhere on my blog, please feel free and have fun.

 

 

 

A New Day

Give yourself a perfect day.
Do what makes you happiest.
Look upon what gives you joy.
Speak to those who warm your heart.
Listen to that which lifts your spirit.
Surround yourself with sights and sounds
and people who give you pleasure.
For all the happiness you give to others all year long,
give yourself a perfect day.

 Find joy in the ordinary!
