Welcome to Joy's a State of Mind blog......

Welcome, thanks for stopping in and checking the place out. I'm new at this blog thing, I just write from my heart and I hope if there is anyone out there I can be of help to or just a be a friend to, I hope you will stay with me and read what I have to say. It isn't that I am a great scholor or a genius. I haven't got a degrees or a job that explains the atmosphere. What I do have is a big heart and life experiences, and that makes me unique. I have been down a road that many of you might be traveling right now. If so, get comfortable, because I am, and relax from the day. I am just as tired as you and frustrated no doubt about it. This morning it is cold and nasty out and I could do with a dose of sunshine, but until that time comes around I'll sit beside a warm fire! So have a glass of whatever suits you, and think of those you love and what makes you happy and what you can do to pass that joy along to others. Time to slow down and relax.

Again, I say welcome.

Daily with Bailey



I wanted to start something new on my blog and write about one of my dearest and most treasured friends.  Bailey.  She is a loyal and trusted companion that will meet me in the morning with the wagging of her tail and a bounce in her step.  I don't seem to know anyone else that meets me with that same enthusiasm.  Dogs have the best personality and the ability to relate to us what it is they are trying to say.  Today, I was sitting in my chair blogging and she came up to me and just gave me THE LOOK.  So, I said to her big brown eyes, Bailey what is it girl?  Like she's gonna talk back to me, right?  She goes to the door and looks back and barks three times, like Lassie.  Swear with my hand to the Bible. She's been doing this since we got her. She does it when she needs water or food as well.  Great communication skills, better than some humans I know!  Then as the day progressed I started getting a cold.  So I snagged our down comforter from our bed and wrapped up in it and of course proceeded to build a fire.  John thought I was nuts, Jamin knew I was insane, Bailey was just sitting there by my side, as if to say, "need anything, I'll get it.  Oh, I love sticks, lets put more sticks in there."   Anyway, what I'm trying to say is always something new and a surprise when it comes to her.  We'll see what tomorrow has to offer.  Until then.   

It has been the snowiest few day that my Bailey has ever known.  She has loved it!  With her feathers blowing in the breeze, she hops and bops through the deep wet snow.  Everytime John goes outside for wood, she makes a mad dash for the door just hoping that she makes it in time for a quick romp with no boundries out in the front yard.  Our loving pet has become somewhat of a comic strip adventure for us to watch out our kitchen window and we hope she doesn't get into to much trouble.  She seems to be amazed with this cold,deep white substance that attaches itself to her beautifully lined feathers until she is weighted down with egg-sized snowballs. Our beautiful Bailey!
