Beautiful day to be alive and spending the day on Mother Earth. The sky is azure blue, clear and cloudless. Mother Nature is blowing a cool breeze, the wind chimes pounding out a fall symphony, the bird feeders full of purple finches and crimson and fawn-brown cardinals. The little wren, his chest pumped out with…

Did some Christmas shopping today and purchased myself a one piece suit of Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer patterned pajamas. They have a little Rudolph hood with the red nose. My son’s reaction was priceless when I walked in the kitchen dressed in the pajamas with the hood on. He said, “Do you need constant…

Was so busy today Christmas decorating The Gran, the name I call my family home, that I forgot to watch the sunset. Those sunsets are the highlight of my day. Cooked super between putting song bird ornaments and Christmas balls on a garland I was creating on the dining room mantle and time just slipped…

Pondered on the porch this morning sitting in the swing, warm sun on my face, watching the song birds and frisky squirrels. Father Sky had filled his azure blue sky canvas with lots of feather shaped clouds. Looked like angel wing feathers floating down from heaven. The thin and wispy feather clouds didn’t last long…

Porch pondered in the porch swing today after overcoming my Thanksgiving food coma! Beautiful day, a little cool, bright azure sky with wispy clouds. Father Sky had scratched his white pastel stick across his blue sky canvas and blurred the lines. I could see blue sky through the thin clouds. The warm sunshine warmed my…

Beautiful day today for giving thanks for our family and friends and for celebrating our family’s love with a meal together. I am in a food coma for the second time this week. Had just recovered from the McMurray Thanksgiving dinner and enjoyed a second Thanksgiving dinner today with my daughter-in-law’s family that brought on…

Today has been a cool fall day with hints of the coming cooler weather of winter. Walked Penelope and took note of all the colors in the marbled sky, grays and whites and hints of turquoise and purple. These little colorful hues come and go so fast if you’re not watching you miss them. You…

It was warm this morning and Penelope and I pondered on the porch during a light rain shower. The sky was overcast and marbled in a myriad of gray. I ate my bagel and enjoyed the cardinals. The cardinals love these rainy days. They’ve been all over the feeders on both sides of the yard,…

Today marks a year that I have been sharing my words on a blog. To celebrate the first anniversary, I’m reposting my first blog. Been thinking a lot lately about writing a blog. Writing my thoughts down and describing the little adventures I experience each day seem to help me through another day. Today marks…

Today was a beautiful fall day spent with family. We gathered for our McMurray Thanksgiving dinner and had a wonderful day. Lots of memory makings but another holiday without my Chief and Rosie. My oldest and his family came over mid day and we went to the farm on an old timey Christmas tree hunt.…
