Daily Pics #7.
Good morning! Still nice and cloudy here so it must be a good time for more sunny pics today to brighten up those dull clouds a bit. And…it’s Monday! Everyone’s favorite day! No? Hmm, then you definitely need to make a change and enjoy Monday. After all, it’s just a day, so why not make it a good day. I much prefer a good day to a bad day. So it’s best to make it a good day. Just sit down and make a list of all the good things today. And don’t tell me you can’t think of anything. There are lots of good things about every day. Let’s start with some bright pictures to get your list going…
Above we have a beautiful dark pink peony to get our day off to a nice start.
And I finally found out what this beauty is called, the clustered bellflower. This gives us 2 different bellflowers now, and 2 more to go.
But not today however, another time. But I do hope all of you have a beautiful and bright day, God bless!

Barnabas Award…x 2!
Hello everyone and welcome back for another award!😃😺🥳🎆🎇 This time the Barnabas Award which was given to me by two people, Lydia and Dusty! Thank you both for thinking of me as an encouragement, this is something I truly appreciate!😁😸 If you haven’t been to their blogs, now is the time to check them out! Normally I don’t do two awards together, but, they both used the same questions.🤔🙄 So no point in doing them separate since the answers would be the same. However, instead of telling 5 things about me, I will just tell 5 things about me.😀🙄 And 5 for Muffin.🐱 That way she can join in too. After all, she is an encouragement too. No sore feet this time.😂😹
“You have been chosen for this recognition because of the encouragement and inspiration you bring to your readers.“
The way this works: Thank the person who nominated you, and share their blog. Think of five bloggers that encourage and inspire you and nominate them. List five things about yourself. Lastly, ask your nominees five questions. Why five? Because is the number that signifies grace.

Questions From Lydia And Dusty:
- Who in your life is your biggest encourager? That’s a good question, I like good questions. I like good answers too. I will say my sister.
- How do you see yourself as being an encouragement to others? Another good question. Yep. Really good. Perhaps by making people smile or laugh. Maybe not something super important, but hey, best I can do on short notice.
- When was the last time someone gave you words of encouragement? Hmm, testing my memory now. Always making things hard. Have to think all the way back to lunch! Yep, that’s when it was.
