Hello Summer!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's been a while since I have written anything on this blog. Life has kept me busy since February. Yes! I didn't even had time to write all these months until now.

Now, the summer season has arrived. Hello Summer!! The summer season is my favorite time of the year. Last night, I had very interesting dream last night. It had to do with the summer season and fall season. I had walked in a Target store and enjoyed seeing the summer store front with all the colors and designs everywhere. The store had lots of colors around the store that brought life to the store. ( One thing you don't know about me is that I love designing & decorating).

2^nd part of the dream, I had walked in Target it was The Fall season. Summer had ended. All the summer items were on clearance. All colorful summer designs were gone from the store. It was depressing for me. I had walked through all Target aisles looking at all Fall colors in the store. Then, I had woke up from the dream in shock. What was this dream tell me? Will my Fall season be sad for me? I don't know what my summer season is going to be like for me? I don't know what my Fall season be for me? As, I had turned to my Bible the Lord talks about different seasons in our lives.

“Ecclesiastes 3

King James Version (KJV)

3 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.” 

I will not go too much in context of this Bible verse. I will say... seasons come and go. We are not in control of our seasons. There are times we don't know what is going to happen next. The real test in your life is how you are going to react in the different seasons. The Lord has shown me to Trust in him  in the winter, summer, fall or spring season. 

Lastly, I promise, I will share my summer season with you in my pictures.

Enjoy the summer season, Y'ALL! See you soon! :)

Summer of 2013

I had promised myself this summer would be different for me. I would visit the people that I love.

Memorial day was staying at home trip with my family. We had celebrate Memorial Day with my nieces and Clifford. We had the best time at Joe Pool Lake.

I had started off to go to a Hot Rod show in Arkansas with my guy, Clifford. There were so many cars to love at this car show.

Two weeks after the car show. I had decided to go on a road trip with my mom to South Texas. We were enjoying San Antonio for the first time as mother and daughter. We made some good memories!

Then it was time to visit papa and the farm during the week of Father's Day. I haven't been to my grandfather's farm about 2 years. It was a very restful time with my grandfather and his family. One thing that touched me during that trip is praying for my grandfather on Father's Day. I was in tears and so was my 92 year old grandfather. I was praying and thanking the Lord for my papa. The Lord revealed to me that my grandfather was a father to the fatherless.

A few weeks later, I was off to another road to a trip to Abilene to visit my friend. I haven't been to Abilene but it was the best trip to a small town with a lot of relaxing moments.

One month to go before summer is over. I still have at least one or two trips left to travel. I will included them later in this blog.

Also, this summer, I am making major changes in my life with money and focus on my retirement. I have been watching the people around make changes in their lives. It is motivating me to step in that area. I am not getting young any time soon. Going shopping is not fun as it used to be for me. I am starting to see that saving and building my retirement right now is important. More to come in my blog about this subject.

The fall season will bring a new season for me. See you online after August, 2013.
