Good morning! on this rainy windy chilly Monday morning. Tomorrow though, the SUN is supposed to shine! Will we even know how to act? Probably not me!

Lately, having to use the windshield wipers every time I get in the car has sure made me think about mama. Mama could say the funniest things...and be very serious about it.


This older model Toyota Corolla that I drive, once belonged to mama. She bought this little car brand new in 1998. She was as proud of this car as she would have been of a Rolls-Royce, seriously!

Anyhow, several years back, I had gone to spend a weekend with mama and on Saturday we went out shopping, "you drive, and we'll take my car, said mama. It was a rainy day, but the rain had turned into an aggravating mist and drizzle . Working with the windshield wiper knob and only finding 'high speed' or 'low speed', I asked mama, "can't you set the windshield wipers on intermediate"? "oh good Lord no", she said.  "This little old car didn't come with anything but a set of seats". 


This picture was taken on Mama's 90th Birthday in 2007, the same year she died. Mama always had that little smile.


Before the rain started two weeks ago Poppy and I got the front and one end of the shop painted. Maybe with some sunshine later in the week we can get this job finished. I'm also making new curtains for the ugly little windows. This shop really is an ugly little building and if we had it to do over, we would not pick that fake log look. Yuk!


I will leave you with sweet Smokey sleeping in Weetie favorite spot. Makes me want to take a nap.

Better get busy. Poppy is on vacation this week. Black Powder deer hunting is in. He went in to work to take inventory but will be back soon.

Thank you my friends, and a special thank you to a new follower, 'Woods Country Cove'. I am so excited!

Love,
Henny
