A merry heart under the Saskatoon Tree

This is such a sweet little book. If you see it at a thrift store, get it. If it looks worn out, it's because it is. I love the little animals and the plot.

It was all gray. Just old drippy weather. Foggy.

The book tells us how each little animal was dealing with it.............or not!

Then the dew began to drip off the tree........the sun was coming out.

The little animals started to get tickled...........and to forget about their gray and drippy day.

They even danced.

Then they said...........WHAT FOG?

Proverbs 17:22 A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.

Too bad they wasted a whole morning.
Don't waste a morning, afternoon, weekend, holiday, night................letting a broken spirit dry your bones.

I read this book to my kids back in the 1960's. Now (Jan 2013)my daughter gave her copy back to me and I reread it. Lovely, charming book. My copy is still in good shape.

We were having-----LAUGHING WEATHER! said all the animals together. Up on his limb, the little gray owlet blinked his eyes and said, "It doesn't really matter much If days are bright or gray; It's the way folks take them That makes times dull or gay!"

this and that

So, I get up this morning, and the rag-rug fairy tied all my rag-rug pieces together and had them wound in a nice ball. I think I will leave more out tonight and see if it can happen again. OK. I like Ross now. These shoes were $1.49. Purple velvet DUCK SHOES. IN MY SIZE. My plans are to go into that store every time I get groceries from now on. Can't beat $1.49 for some of the neatest shoes in the world. I have seen this in a couple of places on blogs and the internet in general. I was fully planning on ordering one....but our Kroger store had them for $12 something. We've made 6 or 7 cups of coffee with this in our K-pot....and I am tickled to have it. I can now buy fun kinds of ground coffee.....not to say that Wal-Mart store brand decaff is a fun brand, but it's what I always used to drink. And I lived. These are useful, not beautiful. I need useful when I garden. I bought some very low cost sni...
