Blue Monday


Another Blue Monday with Smiling Sally has arrived. Thank goodness she is making great strides to getting back home and feeling much better. Visit http://smilingsally.blogspot.com for the latest report.
There is nothing blue about this shot. The heavens finally smiled down on us this weekend. Now bear in mind, this was just a drop in the bucket as to what we need. Regardless, it was a blessing and the temperature dropped to 80. Almost felt cold compared to what we have had. Thank you Lord. It is to be short lived. Today back into the 100s.

My blues for today are just a speck here and there. However, just a dab of blue will do.

Oh how I love that dress. It's charming.
Glad you got some rain. We could use some right now. Had a fire here and the rain would make us really settle everything down.

It's wonderful that you got some rain. All our relatives in Texas are really suffering through this hot, dry summer.

Pretty dress. And I love that cute baby doll in the corner!

Happy Blue Monday!

I'm so glad you got a little respite from the heat! It actually feels a little bit "Fallish" here in Alabama today.

I love that yellow dress with the splashes of blue. It is so feminine and vintage looking.

P.S. I read your pink Saturday tribute to your dear friend and it made me tear up when I read about her wish for the church steeple. Loved it.

I love the blue you shared with us today. Actually the picture of the storm also looks gray blue to me.I hope you are spared more of those fiercely hot temperature. This would be a good year to sell air conditioners :-). I hope you have a great evening. Blessings...Mary
