Good Morning Y'all, as we say in Tennessee,
Hope everyone is feeling well today.You have probably already visited Dad this morning. He seems to be feeling chipper. Every morning when I wake up I hear him in the kitchen singing.

We've had rain,rain,rain here. But I love the rain and even a good thunderstorm now and then. I love to hear the thunder. Does anybody else?

Dad and I are planning to go to the grocery store this morning. I have started "coupon-ing." A friend of mine got me interested, and now it is like a hobby for me.I have an envelope of coupons for things we need. I had been lamenting that I didn't have a hobby, and now I have one, if I can call it that. I think I can because when you get all the coupons you need for one week/month, then you start the search all over again. And it really is fun. A real good web site about this is http://www.couponmom.com/ There are many other good web sites about this subject, too. If anyone has a favorite, let us know.

I love to learn new little bits of information and knowledge about the world we live in, don't you? Here's is something that I enjoyed learning . Clipperton Island is located in the north Pacific. It is a ring-shaped island! You can click on this link to get a view of it.

So long for today. Hope to see you in the morning!

With love from Dad's daughter,
Mary

  1. Good Morning Mary..

    I see you have two new hobbies...blogging and couponing. I only clip coupons from the Sunday paper and only for items I always use. I really dislike the coupons that make you buy 2 or 3 items. If I want to try something new I only want to buy 1. Have fun at the grocery store today...you'll see it takes longer when carrying coupons with you. I hope to see a special section in your blog for your poems. Writing poems is a hobby not too many people can do...so please keep on writing and sharing.

  2. Hello Aunt Mary! I like your blog. I like coupons too. There is a site that allows you to use electronic coupons and load them onto your shopper's card if your grocery store uses one. I'll blog about it soon and let you know.

    I love thunderstorms!I like to be inside, curled up with a blanket and a good book when it's storming. :)

    Love you,
    Mandy

  3. Good afternoon, Ms. Mary! I'm so glad you've started blogging as you are a wonderful writer and have so much of value to share with us. Beautiful inaugural picture of the lion and lamb, and text! ;)

    I love rain, too, and snow even more. We don't get snow here, but it has finally been raining, which I am grateful for. My furry family don't care that much for it, but they love the "after-effects". Be well! Love, Jamaka and fams

  4. Mary, glad to see you out on your own, with blogging and couponing. It is a good life. Of course I got here from Dad's blog. I am an old tomato grower and lover, Bill

  5. Good job, Mary.
    You've made a really good start on a great looking blog. I like the theme, "learning together".

    I love you,
    Your brother Jim
