A quiet summer evening at home!























Good Evening, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

It has been an incredibly beautiful 'summer' evening. Earlier, there was a mix of white and black clouds that moved rapidly through a blue sky. The outer edges of the clouds were all brilliantly shining with white; and the centres were dark. Very peculiar; but neat.

Eventhough, we were moving a tid slowly today, we had a full bit of a day! Will tidbitz for a bittidz. Our friend that came over last night approx at 5:00 pm; did not leave til after 10:00 pm. And, the last time she was here, she came at 4:00 pm and left after 9:00 pm. It was fun to see her; and I thought that perhaps we will just make some 'provisions' for food; in the event the same thing might happen. Oh no, she reassured me; I am only going to 'stay a minute!' Well? Not quite; but I had some Costco mini quiches in the freezer, so they were very tasty; and that was 'our dinner'. We enjoyed sitting outside last night on our new patio furniture; and it felt great to just 'chill out'. After she left, Alan and I sat outside; yes - until 2:20 am!!! Where did the time go? It was probably just what we needed (we shared a few rum and cokes; which hit the spot!)after Thursday. And our Blue, was curled up in my lap, head on my shoulder sleeping on me. So, it was a lovely Friday evening.

We were out for the afternoon and part of the evening; and have not been home all that long. We went to Home Depot and had to purchase a few bittidical supplies, including a barbecue cover for our new barbecue; which I will be trying out tomorrow! Although it is nice to go out for dinner at times, there is just something extra 'special' about a home barbecue! We will be cooking up hamburgers!!!!...Mmmmmmm! And savouring fresh produce from our bittid garden too!

Also, I rearranged our patio pieces so, we now have a bit space to add a tid 'pagoda' (30 in x 30 in; & 3 ft high approx); an outdoor heater / grill, 'pagoda' style. We will be able to enjoy its warmth all year through. It would blend in well with our tidbitical patio wrought iron black furniture, which has white, taupe, and black cushions. It is amazing how you can 'make room for one more!' And all the furniture just seems to 'fit' with our house colours!

We also enjoyed going to our favourite 'Produce Farm'; and selected fresh corn, and a few other garden tid delectables, that we do not have in our bit patio garden.

We then went to Costco and now our larder is full! However, on our next trip to Costco (which will be soon), we will treat ourselves to the black wrought iron 'pagoda', which is *reasonably priced,' As well, we will pick up a fold up style 'camper / lounge' chair; which appears to be very adaptable! Eventhough it has taken us 2 years to gather our outdoor furniture, it was 'well worth the wait!'

Tidbit - Be joyful in your life, and take delight in the simple things!

Bittid - Have a thankful heart each and everyday! 'Praise Him In ALL Things'.

Am looking forward to the watching and listening to the Vision Channel tomorrow morning; always such uplifting messages. If you wish, you can refer to my post of June 8th, (Sunday, a 'Day of Rest') for background. We were at Pasley last weekend, so I missed the programs; and the week just flew by. Am also glad it is Saturday night; and that we are spending a quiet summer calm evening at home! Love the above photo image, which depicts such a tranquil setting; very much like our sky here tonight.

Good Night and God Bless.
