Welcome!

Greetings from the Carolinas!

The south is famous for hospitality and traditions. With that in mind, I would like to graciously welcome you to my Blog. Please join me while I share my passions and reminisce about life in the south.

I have finally realized that one of the keys to an amazing life is to enjoy the journey as we are working towards our goals & our dreams. Becoming a "Gamma" has been such a blessing and helped me slow down and enjoy each precious minute of my day.

What a nice greeting this morning at Trader Joe's!

I came home and was greeted with storm damage on my patio. Under all the debris were some beautiful blooms waiting for me. My pretty pink Rose of Sharon has bloomed for the first time! I also had five tomatoes. Poor little plants were blessed with some rain anyway while I was away. I will be having fresh tomatoe sandwiches today!

I made it back last night. I had a little storm damage while away but not too bad. I was greeted by a neighbor last night that let me know what happened. Rose, another neighbor came by this morning to fill me in. She said she thought they were having a tornado and was so frightened while I was away. She had never heard the winds so fierce here before.

 I was up at 6am and thought I would do a little grocery shopping at Whole Foods since I was dropping Emily by there. She is working there part time now. She loves it and they have GREAT benefits!! I love Whole Foods. The deli and whole body departments are my favorites. I shop at both stores as they both offer items that the other doesn't offer. They open at 8. That was too long for me to wait today. So...... I thought I would head to Trader Joe's. That was second on my list of errands today. They also open at 8 am. I decided to head back home since it only takes about 7 minutes to get back. I did a few things and then I headed back over and was at Trader Joe's just as they opened the door. Bells (really) went off and everyone started cheering "YEA!!!" and running towards me. I was so excited & not really sure what to think since I was the only customer in there. I just smiled and started cheering with them! I thought I had won the lottery or was on Candy Camera. "Your the first shopper of the day!!!" "Welcome!!!" Welcome"!!!

It certainly made me feel good. What a wonderful way to start off a day! I love that place!
Now I am off to take care of some paperwork and to bake those cupcakes for a special little Ava!!
Thank you for stopping by to visit with me this morning!
