Bonita, I loved this post...you made me stop and savor the beauty of this very day. Thanks from my heart. Before I read your post, all I could see about my day was mostly a big 'to do' list.

Bonita, you are such a great writer. I love this story. You are so right, we all need to slow down and sit on a porch & sip something cold a lot more often. I know your Aunt & Uncle were happy to have you there. My parents are getting older too & I sure want to make the best of the years they have left. Thanks for the reminder.

You make me smile with your comment about being on TV. Oh, I have no aspirations of that, I just enjoy sharing with all of you girls out there who like to decorate too, so as long as y'all keep reading, I'll keep going. You're so sweet!

xo,
Rhoda

What a beautiful post. It is so important to have our priorities in the right order! You've got it down! I'm going to direct people to this post on Monday as I'm posting on the final judgemet seat and this is exactly what I'm talking about! Love it!

Hi Bonita... I will do a post on the concrete... It's been a while but I may be able to talk yall through it. It's kinda a mess because you have to use some serious chemicals like acid.. ick... I dont think I will ever try it again...Susie H~

Sweet sweet. I think the older folks love visits and I think your heart was just in the right place at the right time.

As you said, the work will always be there, but not the people.

I'm so glad you had a wonderful day!

AHHH - that post is ear candy to me (or eye candy since I am reading it:).
One of our family motto's is "the little things are the big things" and you have perfected it here.

We are practically neighbors. You could have come down for the GW opening and we could have found treasures together, talked NCHE conference things and had such a wonderful time getting to know each other...sigh...another time.:)

What a wonderful day! I feel more relaxed just reading about it. ALSO, as wonderful as it was for you....it was probably twice as much for them.
You made a great memory.

More and more, I try to take that pondering breath and say, "What would happen if you don't follow through 'with your heart'?" as you put it.

If it were music, it would be like adding a whole rest in the measure. Sometimes, I only manage a quarter- or eighth-note rest, and while that's a step in the right direction, I still rob myself of the full measure of peace, if you will.

Such a wonderful reminder! Prayers for ears to hear a place for a rest.
