Random Thoughts From The Last 24 Hours

1. Beauty is everywhere if you take time to notice. I snapped this picture last evening coming home from an auction. I think they like yellow! It's charming, isn't it? Did you see the tree face? ha.

2. I discovered that a Christmas Cactus will bloom if you set it in a sunny window and stop fussing over it. Yes, blooms in May, but so worth the wait.

3. If you bump the iron with your arm while ironing shirts, you will get an ugly burn! Ice and Vitamin E help a lot.

4. If you get too close to the toilet paper while vacuuming with the hand held attachment, you can suck a good portion off the roll before you can get to the power button! LOL!

5. And speaking of vacuuming, it's better to clean the bird cage before vacuuming underneath it. That way when the parakeets fly around, they don't have as many seed hulls and feathers to fling into the air. Yep, I'm going to remember that next time. :)

6. If you clean your coffee pot with CLR and don't rinse it out well enough, the next pot will practically poison you. And just when the tip of my tongue got feeling back into it! haha.

7. Large hail beating on your house can make you think the windows are going to shatter. The sound can also drowned out the sounds of the tornado siren!

8. 30 days of rain out of the last 34 makes your yard look as lush and green and as overgrown as a jungle!

9. And, if you notice that the price of gasoline has dropped 40 cents in the last week as you drive to work, you better stop and fill up, because you might notice on the way home that it jumped up 30 cents just while you were working!

And what about you? Have any insightful thoughts about your day?
