A Blue Blurrrr

 Last week was a blue blurr.

I am tired today and look forward to time with Larry 

and reading a bit.

Summer is still here in Texas.

I cannot wait for the cooler weather to arrive.

It is Sunday morning and Larry has something on his mind.....

so we will leave on an adventure in a few minutes.

Please have the best day.

Love you beyond the moon.

Harvest Moon

I was outside last evening
and was overcome by the
beauty surrounding me.
This is yesterday's picture.
I have been rather grumpy lately.
Is this a grumpy picture?

Love you beyond the Moon.

The Calm

 Yesterday, I worked on a Christmas gift

 and watched the BBC version 

of Little Women.

It was relaxing.

I wish you a calm Friday.

Love you beyond the moon.

The Dried Roses

Photo: The Roses

 Last week I came across a large 

zip-loc bag in a desk drawer.

It was filled with dried roses and baby's breath

from the family arrangement that was

 at my Mother's funeral.

Mother died on August 13th, 1995.

(Norman, my father, bought the flowers

 and brought them to The Cottage in 1995. 

He asked me to make the family 

arrangement for Mother's service. 

I was so happy to do it)

When I found the flowers, last week,

I took this photo and threw 

the dried flowers away.

It was sad to throw them away,

 but it was OK. I am OK.

Life has an uncanny way of moving on 

and you have no choice 

but to hang on and go along with it.

Life isn't exactly as I imagined 

it would be at my age.

I think that it might be better.

Life is truly wonderful....

Love you beyond the moon.

My Tuesday

 Every Tuesday, I water the plants. 

There are a dozen of them, 

and they get a very good drink.

Every couple of months, I feed them.

This week the pink violet 

decided to start blooming 

and

the color is stunning.

My Tuesday was rather crappy....

so spending time with my plants was a joy.

They are the best of friends who only listen.

Love you beyond the moon.

Last Week

Last week I made salmon for dinner.

The recipe is wonderful

and the above picture is the marinade.

It is garlic and herbs in white wine and lemon juice.

It goes over the fish while baking.

I bake the salmon for 25 minutes.

It is just one of those dinners.

You know the kind...

the kind everyone loves and is no big deal.

Please have a great day.

Don't let anyone get you down...

and try to smile.

Smiling is good for the heart.

Love you beyond the moon.
