Happy Birthday To One Of My Favorite People

Photo: Em  Is 15 Today

 Our wonderful EM is 15 years old today.

Em is one of the most 

interesting people in my life.

Dear EM, 

May this birthday be special in every way.

May your creativeness surpass any expectation.

May your music be a comfort to 

everyone who hears it.

May your love for others give them encouragement and positive moments.

and

May your enthusiasm for life live in your heart all the days of your life.

Pa and I love you so very much.

PS:(below) you made this for me while you were homebound during covid. 

I think it is the perfect example of how you look at life.

 

Bloomscrolling

 Bloomscrolling! It is my new favorite thing.

It is the most positive

 thing on social media.

Over the years I have tried to stay positive on blog,

except for a minor rant or two.

But now, for me, it is about the photos.

Now a days, anyone can be a photographer,

but it takes a special photo 

to share a feeling or thought.

They are the photos I love so much.

During your day today....

look up bloomscrolling.

It just might make your day.

As you leave,

Please keep this in mind,

This is a very old bog 

and I am a very old woman.

I have met this most wonderful people 

through this online journal.

I appreciate you for taking the time to check out my daily photo and leave me a note or two.

Love you beyond the moon.

Who's Turn Is It Anyway?

Photo: The Chess Game

When Larry and I are playing chess...

and have to stop in mid-game,

whoever's turn it is,

puts this small sculpture

in front of their chess pieces.

I gave this carved piece to Larry for 

Christmas, years ago. He loves it.

Love you beyond the moon.

Journal

 I love to see how people journal.

Larry has been journaling out of this book for many years. (and changes the refill)

Do you journal? 

What does that look like?

Love you beyond the moon.

Sixty Blocks

 Yesterday I took a class at 

Sam Johnson Senior Center.

 I saw a few friends at the class

and came home to work on a quilt.

This week is going very fast and 

feel as though I am afraid of letting

 one moment pass with out

doing something productive in it.

Love you beyond the moon.

Because

Photo: The Orchid

Deep Breath. 

This morning I woke up anxious.

Is it because I have new medicine?

Is it because someone special

 in my life will not talk to me?

Is it because I am feeling like an

 ancient lady trying to navigate being 

an older member of society?

Then I look at the orchid Larry bought

me on Sunday. 

Deep breath. 

Love you beyond the moon.
