Wednesday July 2nd ~

The key is not to prioritize what’s on your

 schedule, but to schedule your priorities...

Florida is calling and we are listening. Today we go 

back home to Florida for a couple of weeks.  We were 

supposed to be going back to see Michelle and family, sadly

 that will not happen.  I am so disappointed as is Arvid. 

I am looking forward to going home.  Not so 

much the plane ride, but on the flight coming here,

Sniff was much calmer because of a calming

 spray I used.  Hopefully it will work again.

 

Mom is doing good.  She was discharged yesterday.  

We would have liked her to stay in a bit longer, but the 

doctor is confident that she was ready to go home🙏

Our furry friend showed up to greet us good morning

 and to enjoy some foodies, and wish us a good trip..  First 

time Daisy and Fatboy showed up together.  I love them.

The human capacity for burden 

is like bamboo, far more flexible than 

you’d ever believe at first glance...

Florida Is Calling ~ Sunday September 24th

It's been a long time.  I'm so glad to be coming back home

Getting myself re-oriented to be back in Florida. 

 A little Florida humor sure sets the mood.

Florida is calling and we must soon go.  Looking forward

 so much to being home in Florida again.  Walks downtown

 and more. And that's our building in the middle of it all.

Looking forward to Art Walk, Music Walk and just being 

downtown again.  Had a good time in Branson, but it's time to head 

back to winter wonderland.  Back soon to the Sunshine State.

Sniff has had a good run also in Branson, but back home in Florida 

the sunshine awaits him.  He will soon be basking in it for hours on end.

I'm all excited about going back to Publix.  My favorite grocery 

store in Florida.  Looking forward to Friday night pizza, sunrises

 on the balcony and those amazing sunsets.  Yes, it's soon 

time to go back home to Florida, the Sunshine State 🌞.

Here in Branson Sniff knows something is going on, and every 

so often he gets into this "playful" mood and just tries to bite.  He's not

 really biting, but Arvid still thinks he is, Arvid is also learning.

The thrill of coming home has never changed...

October 25th ~💞

Life takes you to unexpected places Love brings you home...

I took this picture sometime last week.  Seems like

 dark clouds like it here a lot.  I think the dark clouds are

 beautiful, of course so is sunshine and all kinds of weather.

It's good to be back home with Sniff.  At the same time, it was 

also so very good to see everyone.  Will post pictures on a later post. 

 Today we are just catching up and taking care of business.

To all a very good day.  I still can't believe that little

 Danielle is married.  She’s all grown up and ready to start a 

family of her own, and this is the first step towards a new and exciting

 chapter in her life. I think of her and the woman she's become, and I

 can't help but feel proud. You're amazing, and I hope you 

enjoy every second of your new adventure with Andrew.

It's not the home I love, but the life that is lived here...
