Hi. :)))) How was your day? Mine was most sweet. :)))) I woke at 5:30 fed george kitty, woke my son at 6 so he could get ready for school. At 10 til 7 I started watching for the bus. As I sat there I looked down at my Jasmine tree all covered with buds ready to pop open at any moment so I counted how many there were and there were 48 little buds. :)))) At 7 the bus ran and off my son was to school. :))) I stayed up for a while this morning. Scott came and picked my husband up for work, and after everyone was gone I came here and looked at all of the beauty you each shared. :)))) Thank you for warming my heart this morning. :))))) When I left here I then went and laid down for an hour. :))) When I woke this time I got my camera bc I heard the tree swallows. :)))) Well lets just say they are camera shy bc they flew away. :))) So I started taking images of flowers. :))) After I finished I came back onto the porch. I was setting close to the edge of the porch when all of a sudden here came a tree swallow flying extra low and extra close to me. If I would have only reached out I could have touched its stomach. :)))))) That put a big smile in my heart and upon my face. :)))) I then came back in folded a load of clothes and put them away, vacuumed the carpet in the den and utility room, rolled up meatballs for dinner tonite, and cleaned the litter box. No laying in the sun today bc it was more cloudy than not. LOL!!!!! When my son got home from school today at 3 I went ahead and put the pan of meatballs into the oven and went back outside. :))))) I have to say that the blue bird told the tree swallows all day that all of the bird houses in our backyard are his for sure. I talked to Mr.Blue and said please Mr. Blue please let the tree swallows have one of the four bird houses. I bet he didn't listen though. LOL!!! I will have to see tomorrow. :))) I then came back in fixed brown gravy, green beans, and mashed potatoes to go with the meatballs. After dinner I then did the dishes. :)))) Now I am here with friends relaxing. :))))) Well I better tell a little about this image. :)))) This evening as I was waiting on the meatballs to get done I came over to my desk and noticed a couple of bloosoms on top of the jasmine so I shot a few images. :)))) The bloosoms are 3/4 of an inch in size. :))) I love the little bloosoms bc when they open completely up they look like little stars. :))))) I used flash on this image. :))))) I have to say that I can smell the sweet scent of jasmine as I type this. :))) What did you do today? I hope you were able to get out and enjoy the first full day of Spring. :)))) When Spring arrives I find myself outdoors more than indoors. LOL!!! I may lay out tomorrow if its not too cloudy. :)))))) Well I should go for now, but before I go I wish you many sweet dreams tonite. :)))) I wish your tomorrow to be filled with song birds, sunshine, and many warm smiles. :))))))) I want to say thank you from the deepest part of my heart to all that looked, commented, and rated my last image. :))))) Thank you for warming my heart today with all of the beauty you shared. :)))) Carry A Smile In Your Heart :))))))) Nite, Sweet Dreams Best if viewed in zoom. :)))))
