Sunshine!


a new day has begun, with eyes
wide open, i look up to the sky
and see the sunshine beaming thru

it is time for the sun to shine
life does present us with rocky roads
however we find a way to get thru

april is very near, it is when our
weather changes, and our spirits bloom
it is time for the rain to bring us
that wonderful spring smell

close your eyes you know that smell
breathe it in

our bodies can feel it, we know
it is time for the awakening of spring
it cheers us on, and gives us hope

our spring and summer clothes may
not fit, but heck we got the sunshine!

i am ready for change, for new beginning's
to look at everything around me in a
different way, to take the time to be
grateful, for the trees, for the flowers
for family, for the owls, and for the nest!

iteach was right, her comment
stuck with me all day, and hence this blog

"They sweep everything under the rug
and don't deal with anything".

"No sweeping here"!

sweeping is not allowed
and because of that, there is only
sunshine today, look up to the sky
you will see it, just as i did!

and if you have raindrops
push them aside with all your strength
just like curtains
and the sunshine will peek thru~~

:O)

Good morning sunshine (Carol)

Congrats on 1st EBJ

Spring has sprung and I intend to have a great summer. Right after the snowstorm blows thru tomorrow....LOL
The positive is the birds are now singing in the morning and it is light out when I go to work and when I come home!

East Bay J said...

For me, the weather has a lot to do with how I'm feeling.

I was talking to someone at work about this not long ago. We had been having some rainy, stormy days. And then there was sun!

A beautiful, early spring day. I was giving a patient a breathing treatment, she asked me why I was so happy and smiling.

I didn't even realize I was happy and smiling, but I thought about it for a minute, and said that it was the beautiful weather!

From where I work, we have a view of Mt. Diablo, and across the street are cows in big open fields. Everything is green right now.

Sometimes, I catch myself just sitting and staring out the window and daydreaming!!

It's hard not to be happy and smile!

I hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Good morning Goldie!

Renee Eve said...

Good Morning Sunshines (OWLS),

Congrats EBJ on first, good for you!!!

Goldie, I know more snow for us too, about 5 inches. They said south of Detroit, with possible North of Detroit, So we are North of Detroit, I'm hoping is passes us. Wisconsin had a lot of snow this year. But I think we all broke records with snow this year. We did.

Yes, its Spring, as Goldie said, birds are singing, and its SUNNY. I so need to go clean up my gardens, but its so cold, I usually go in mid April and clean them out, I only have 3.

Our project this year is taking down our swing set that is inlayed in a mulch playground. So we have to breakdown the RailRoad ties, and clean the mulch out and prep for sod or seed. I want to hire someone, hubby, wants to do it. Hes very good/handy around the house, but his delivery dates are not good. So were going back and forth on this one.

Well I'm gonna go start my work.

Joey, Thanks, I emailed her this morning and told her about the rule of HO's LOL. You guys are so kind. Thank you. So if someone comes in here by the name of tahari its her. But Joey already gave her a name taHOri, LOL.

Check back soon.

Love you guys,
Renee Eve

JoeyfromSC said...

Morning!:)SPRING HAS SPRUNG!:)
Y'all are alive lol
I posted couple hours ago on the other blog, and noone commented after me! haha
Have a great day all! This is a fly-by!

JoeyfromSC said...

I took the words out of goldie's mouth!ROFLMAO

I had not read anything!(comments I mean)

Congrats on 1st EBJ!:)

JoeyfromSC said...

LOL@ReneeEve..Glad someone noticed my name for her!

It is NOT sunshine-y here today:(
Very dreary..I must snap out of it! LOL

Sandie said...

Good morning Carol, ebj, Goldie and Renee!!

My computer is in the shop so I only get a few minutes a day on my hubby's since he does have to work. :(

Carol, you're so right--the sunshine and warmer weather send out good vibes! I was so sorry to read about your aunt yesterday.

Renee, loved your son's essay yesterday. He's very articulate.

Hi, Joey!

I was just outside cleaning up the pool after our rain storm yesterday and thinking that it won't be too long before we're back in it! Okay, off to clean--I guess someone's got to do it. LOL

Have a great day, owls!

RonnieGirl said...

Good Spring morning,
Carol, at last it's here, and it is a time for renewal. It's a beautiful sunny Spring morning and
when I was sweeping my patio earlier, I even saw a Robin. That truly is a sign of our new season.

goldie, It's always a good sign when the birds a signing. Hope things at the office are getting back to normal.

Renee, Sounds like you've got a lot of work planned. It's almost sad to take down a swing-set because it means the children are not little anymore.

Joey, Good to see you...thanks for the comment. I'm making pastel colors to celebrate the season.

Sandie, Good to see you. I guess we all know there's no Good-fairy...but why is it always us who get's the honor of cleaning? lol

Each day is a precious gift, and I hope everyone enjoys whatever this one brings your way.

RonnieGirl said...

Before Joey get's me....

when the birds aRE singing...lol

JoeyfromSC said...

YW Ronnie! I would come over and help with the candy making!:)

Did you say "GOOD-FAIRY"!?
I'm a fairy;)

ROFLMAO

JoeyfromSC said...

ROFLMAO@Ronnie..just in the nick of time;)hehe

RonnieGirl said...

I knew you were lurking, Joey!

RonnieGirl said...

Yes you are a Fairy, Joey...but are you good?

scirish said...

Morning Owls!

Sad to say, no sunshine here...it's bleh and damp. I feel like a nap already..ugh

RonnieGirl said...

You're toooo funny, my friend Joey!!

Good morning scirish, that sunshine is right around the corner.

JoeyfromSC said...

Hey Scirish..None here either:(
Dreary, rainy, windy! UGH!

LOL@ronnie
Yes, MOST days I'm good! hehe

RonnieGirl said...

I bet every day, Joey. I saw the amount of friends you have, and I think you're good too.
Luv ya...

Lynn D said...

Morning Glories!

EBJ got first!

Spring in the Northwest is always interesting. We can have beautiful sunshine and bam 2 minutes later pouring rain, thunderstorms, hail and ocassionally snow! LOL I was born and raised here and we just say yeah this is spring!

I know it is spring when the grass starts showing signs of life and I start dreading digging out the lawn mower.

When the sunshine hits I am outside mumbling to myself 20 minutes of sunshine leads to happiness and sanity! LMAO (Yes I really do this)!

The last couple of weeks I have been watching the ducks in our back acreage ( which is seasonal wetland) hatch their babies. We have our annual pigeons on the roof hatching babies! ( I should write a blog about the pigeons) By summer we look like we are filming for Hitchcock, The birds The birds!

The eagles have been out more than usual. It is like everything has not just a mission but a wonder and renewed hope. Just have to enjoy and live in the moment!

Hi goldie, Joey, Renee, Sandie, Ronnie and anyone else blogging in while I just type away.

Here Comes The Sun
(George Harrison)

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Little darlin' it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darlin' it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Little darlin' the smiles returning to their faces
Little darlin' it seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Little darlin' I feel the ice is slowly meltin'
Little darlin' it seems like years since it's been clear
Here come the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Here come the sun, here comes the sun
It's all right, it's all right

RonnieGirl said...

Well Morning glories to you too, Lynn. The picture you just painted sounds like a beautiful postcard. We don't see eagles where I live and they are so beautiful. We do see a lot of hawks soaring through the air though, and many buzzards in west Texas. Not pretty at all, rather nasty looking. lol

Good morning Jennifer. Sounds like a day with sunglasses for you.

Barbara_in_COviaWA said...

GOOD SUNSHINE MORNING TO YOU ALL!

Congrats on first today ebj!

RonnieGirl said...

I've got so many things to do today, and thank you for starting it off in such a happy spring way.

Thank you Carol for your Spring topic.

I hope that everyone flying into the nest after me has a wonderful day.

Barbara_in_COviaWA said...

ibebold said...

Good Morning, everyone!!

EBJ - congrats on first.

CPgem - SPRING - I have to laugh - what I miss the MOST about living in the desert is the CHANGE of seasons!!!!!

Barb in WA - you sang that Beatle song better than the kids on Idol!! LOL...

Lynn D - pigeons are the nastiest birds - there are two floor plans of houses in our neighborhood that they LOVE the roofs of - thank goodness, mine is NOT one of them!!

Ronnie - I agree - I am ALWAYS thankful for another day!!

I woke up with my throat MORE swollen than yesterday and I should be in bed - BUT, I have paid for my card clinic - so I'm going!! :-) (I never learn!!!)

I hope everyone has an excellent day!!! Enjoy the birds chirping and the flowers blooming!!

whabbear said...

Following in Barbara's footsteps:

Mr Blue Sky by Electric Light Orchestra

Sun is shinin' in the sky
There ain't a cloud in sight
It's stopped rainin' ev'rybody's in a play
And don't you know
It's a beautiful new day hey,hey

Runnin' down the avenue
See how the sun shines brightly in the city
On the streets where once was pity
Mister blue sky is living here today hey, hey

Mister blue sky please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long
Where did we go wrong?

Hey you with the pretty face
Welcome to the human race
A celebration, mister blue sky's up there waitin'
And today is the day we've waited for

Hey there mister blue
We're so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do
Ev'rybody smiles at you

Mister blue sky, mister blue sky
Mister blue sky

Mister blue, you did it right
But soon comes mister night creepin' over
Now his hand is on your shoulder
Never mind I'll remember you this
I'll remember you this way

Mister blue sky please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long
Where did we go wrong?

Hey there mister blue
We're so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do
Ev'rybody smiles at you

DreamaTexas said...

Good morning all!
Spring has been coming in with a roar where I live. We've had 3 tornados in 10 days. Ugh!
Our first wild flowers are in bloom along the highways in yellow and pink just in time for Easter.

Shirley(NCC-1701) said...

Hi everyone. The weather here is rainy, dark and dismal...pretty much how I feel, but, as per Carol's request I am trying to see the sunshine. I even changed my avitar. I know I haven't been around much lately and I am sorry. A lot of you have sent me comments on my space and I haven't sent any back. Again I am sorry. I am going to try and be a better owelette, just bare with me.

Now someone hand me one of those unbrella drinks and a pair of sunglasses!

goldie said...

OMG-Barbara! I have been singing that song (sorta) in my head all morning. Then I come back on here and viola! There it is.

Hi everyone, been really busy today at work (catching up from NO work the other day). I am happy to report that things are back to normal. Only had to talk to the insurance company once today ( I believe the latest request was for a pint of blood to prove we really are who we say and have what we say). Lordy help me.
Thankfully my agent is terrific and she is getting between us and the claims dept. and gettting it all done.

I am soooooooo hoping this winter storm goes south of us so I can go have lunch with HODI tomorrow! Keep your fingers crossed.

Fresh ingredients for the brownies- but someone else will need to grow them IBB. I dont garden. Period. I would probably pull the plant thinking it was a weed (bwaaaahaaahaaa....) Geez I crack myself up sometimes.

Anyway- back to work I go! Talk to you later morning glories (I loved that lynn!

goldie said...

FEEL BETTER MEK!!!

scirish said...

Hi again owls

Just spent the last 2 1/2 hours with no power. Thank God for gas stoves...it was getting decidedly nippy in here. It is windy, cold and sleeting...somehow I feel very un-spring like...bah

Joey...Congrats on being in the Rosie birthday video, it was terrific, thanks for sharing.

scirish said...

Ok, now I have to go try to do something with my hair that sorta dried on it's own during the power outage..cuz I have a stupid back doctor appt thats probably going to be a freakin waste of time.

Just Mary freakin sunshine here, I know....I just seem to have my knickers in a twist today.

Jodi said...

GOLDIE - A girl after my own heart!!! I am so not a gardener!!!

ITEACH - No offense, but I hope that storm heads your way instead of here!!! :P

What a beautiful first day of spring!!! Sun is shining, I can finally see some grass......brown as hell and muddy...but I'll take it!! I refuse to believe that we're getting another effin' snow storm.

EAST BAY J - Congrats on first!!!

JOEY - I hope you can find a use for the gift I left on your myspace. LOL!! :P

kahonugrl said...

If you can't be first - BE FIFTY!!

LOL

MEK in AZ said...

Goldie - LOL at thinking the weed was a weed!! :-)

I can NOT keep a garden growing for anything - I don't own any house plants..

Today is a chilly, warm - if that makes sense..

DreamaTexas said...

Shirley,
Glad to see you back home in the nest.
I think this winter has been the severest on record. On Myspace all winter long I started seeing more blue frowny faces and each time it had to do with the severe rainy, cold weather. When I grew up in Germany my first summer there it didn't get above 45 degrees. I guess I was young and could cope better. There wasa lot of gray skies constantly. The Germans drank shot liquors to stay warm. They even poured creme (cream) liquors over ice cream to warm up. They would have red wine with a meal to make their body warm. They were a happy people. Maybe the liquors helped.
Mek
what on earth did you eat in Texas that made you gain 8 pounds?! Texas has good food at least!
Ok, back to work!

MEK in AZ said...

Okay - here's a new pic

My little brother and I were supposed to go down the slide together - but he PUSHED me down!! Then - he came tumbling down on top of me!!!

:-)

MEK in AZ said...

FIFTY-FIVE!!!

JoeyfromSC said...

aww thanks Tina! You are sunshine too!
LOL@Mek..Reminds me of the old Molly Shannon skit on SNL "I'm FIFTY" LMAO

OMG I just got a phone call as I started to type this from someone saying they had a piece of my mail! LOL
She said her address is also 302-C but a different street around the corner...She looked up my number on 1800free411! WOW! I'm impressed..because she offered to bring it by to me!!
Kindess is still in some people;)

JoeyfromSC said...

OH and Mek, I've YET to see this "bouncy" pic of you! I tried looking through your pics, with no luck!:(

Renee Eve said...

I have a little something to share with you guys, while I was reading out Township paper, This is the Honest to God truth.



Ok, I'm sorry I have something VERY FUNNY to share, I was reading our Township Newspaper, yesterday and they have a part in there about crime watch. Well this is what it said:
`
`
`
Woman gets grouchy about take out
`
`
`
Police were called March 8 when a man said his wife assaulted him after he brought home carryout for dinner. The man brought dinner back to their residence on Lida Lane at 5:30pm, he said, and sat at the table to eat. His wife reportedly started yelling at him that the food was "all hers," and he shouldn't touch or eat it, according to reports. She allegedly hit him.
`
`
I was laughing so HARD, this is NOT a joke it came from our local newspaper that comes once a week.
`
`
I can't believe this what was he suppose to eat LOL. Has she not heard of SHARING, especially since his A$$ went out to get it. But that is a mans job to go pick up carry out. IN MY HOUSE!!!!!!

MEK in AZ said...

Joey - the two bouncy pictures ARE my profile pic here in the nest -

-------------------------->

SO - when you read my commment - look to the right and there it is..

you can see the one of me by myself if you scroll up to a previous post!!!

Dangnabit, Joey - you are just TOO cute!! :-) AND, it is nice to know that there are nice people left in this world!!

JoeyfromSC said...

LMAO@ReneeHOEve! That is messed up! LOL(note the addition to your name!haha)

Aww thx Mek..you're cute too!
I see it now! duh..lol..I'm blind!!
Too funny!
Okay, hungry..going to find dinner!

JoeyfromSC said...

The other thing was my free postcards and free gift(some gay bracelets that I won't wear..lmao)!

So rather important, but not! Still nice of her to do that! I'm still in shock!LOL

Actually after that, I went across to the convenience store for milk, and am more shocked to pay the $4.99! LOL

Happy Spring Owls.

Carol, great blog and I am enjoying a warm sunny day here in Sac. Spring is my favorite season, with all the new life "springing" up everywhere. To me it shows that God still has hope for us.

Barb WA: Love both of those songs. Thanks for putting them in my head all day.

Bon'O said...

Happy Spring HOoters, and thanks, Carol, for the great kickoff!!

It's been fun catching up on everyones' weather reports.

MEK~~When you said "Today is a chilly, warm - if that makes sense..", I have to admit it really didn't :o) BUT, within the last fifteen minutes, we've had bright sunshine, blustery wind blowing pink blossoms from the cherry trees, thunder, light snow and hail mix and then sunshine again. NOW, I get it!

Blessed Good Friday to all celebrants.

Note to self: Buy TiVo, dang it! How do we decide between John Corbett (Raising Helen) and Harry Connick, Jr. (South Pacific) tonight??

MEK in AZ said...

Bono - howdy - thanks!! Yes, I do believe that he is still Mr. Derek.

Bon'O said...

I agree, MEK....until it gets to The Final Four. Then I'm hooked, especially if Duke and/or UNC are in it!

Glynis said...

Hello owl friends!

The Sunshine was good today, a nice change! And I loved that lots of you decided to pull back the curtains a bit, as least its a start!

Funny, when I wrote todays blog last nite, I had no idea today was the first day of Spring, I did not realize it till this morning when I saw the morning news!

So the blog today fit well!
