" It Was A Good Day"

Thank You David @ AuthorBlog


Yesterday was a really good day!Except that E-Blogger
has some major problems and it's hard to access my
blog and some others, posts are not updating ect. UGH !





Whatever caused my week long depression has gone!
I have received wonderful comments and e-mails with
some really helpful information. I thank all of you so much!






Several have expressed that I was the last person
they would expect to get depressed. Normally I am
a very positive person. I have had depression in the
past but I could point to a cause or at least what I
believed to be the cause. For example, my Mother's
death, my daughter's marriage to an abuser. However
there was no apparent cause for this episode. I went to
bed fine and awoke in a state of pure misery as though
someone has drugged me in my sleep! I do think there
is an underlying medical reason behind it. I am going to
talk to my doctor about doing a Thyroid check because
I've gained thirty pounds in 18 months but don't eat any
different than I've always ate. Maybe do a hormone check
also. I'm not going to push it aside because it was bad!





Back to a good day yesterday! I did a lot of house
cleaning and backed up laundry! YUK! It felt good
to be motivated if only to work. I walked around the
yard looking at the gardens and flowers. Saw beauty
and bounty everywhere! Picked Squash and Bell Peppers.






My Asparagus Fern on the screen porch is blooming!









I also took a walk in the woods out front and saw

this growing in the wet weather stream.............

I have know idea what it is except that I'm sure

it is a wildflower and it really is pretty............












I also saw this Crawdad Hole.................









The woods you see behind this Gardenia are

where I was walking................

This Gardenia is showing out!!










It is behind my St. Francis garden which is coming along










The Oleander outside "the porch" window is putting

on a show and the Hummingbirds love it!!










I told you yesterday I was changing out my bed linens.

This is the old and even though I've only had it on there

about a year, I wanted a different look for a spell......










Here's a close up...................












This is a close up of the new quilt.........

It is a Boston Color Collection Luxury

Handcrafted Averi Quilt. 100% Cotton

with cotton fill........











I knew nothing about these type quilts , for you quilters

this is what the front insert says:

"French Floral Chain Stitch embroidery embellishes this

fanciful quilt. Quilted with elegant vermicelli stitching/

boutis Quilting. Made of rich cotton with rayon yarn

embroidery................




I got it at Tuesday Morning. It was originally $ 410.00.

I paid $ 149.99.........

I also got a light weight Taupe Brown, Down Comforter

to go under it that was maked down from $110.00 to

$39.99 and a set of Queen 500 Thread Count Egyptian

Cotton sheets that had been marked down from$ 140.00 to

$ 49.99! Now if your thinking it's Summer and this will

be hot.....Hubby sets the Air at 66 at night .................

I'd freeze without this cover..........




They did not have the pillow shams to match the

Quilt but I'll keep looking.............





And so..........a look at my day yesterday!







Thank you God for helping me find the Rainbow at

the end of this..................
