  • A Round Table

    Cell phone picture of Mom’s dinning room table…

    We did go to church and  fishing this morning… Does that make this okay?

    Can anyone guess which is mine?

    FAVORITE THINGS

    MUSIC

    Joshua Radin

    I love it when a musician captures your feelings.

    Because he says it so well, I can dedicate it to my baby.

     

     

    UP CLOSE

    I’m still loving things in the up close.

    Sometimes the imperfections you find up close can make even a weed  more beautiful.

    SUMMER HEAT

    It’s 95 degrees out today and I am enjoying it.
    When the monsters get home from school we are hitting the beach.

    Lunch with Ben and gabe

    A couple weeks ago Ben took the day off and he and I did some wandering around the country side.

    It was a REALLY good day.

    We took Gabe… Here he is having lunch with us at The BoonDocks in Glen Arbor.

    Yesterday was a REALLY Good day, but I didn’t take Gabe.

    I should have painted a little mustache on his face and tied him down with a rope… Hmm…

    He definitely needs a mustache!

    I like finding my reflection on Gabe after I take his picture.

    See me?!

    I have been taking pictures, I have… just haven’t gotten anything I’m really thrilled with right now.

    Some of you have been getting some good stuff though…

  • Random Ramblings of a Sleep Deprived Mind

    ~Our neighbor gave us a birdhouse a couple weeks ago.

    ~I set it on the potting table outside of the mudroom door, thinking  Ben could attach it to the pole the following day.

    ~A  black capped chickadee moved in the next morning.

    ~Now I can’t use my potting table because I don’t want to disturb the resident!

    ~It’s so tempting to peek into the house…  but we are resisting.~

    ~Time is flying by.

    ~I am supposed to be planning our twenty year class reunion, but things keep changing on me…

    ~Making all of the decisions alone isn’t fun either.

    ~I think for the next one we should establish a committee…

    ~Next weekend I am going to be older then I ever considered being… 

    Does anyone else know what I mean?

    ~I am really enjoying life in the up close.

    ~Tomorrow I will do a PPS post…

    ~Tomorrow is my day off.

    ~Tomorrow I can sleep ALL day if I want to!

    ~Life is good.

  • One of the great things about the bakery is Karen…

    Karen has what I call, “A NEED TO FEED!”

    The oven at work is always running, she uses it to make us all kinds of good food for breakfast and lunch.

    Today she made me breakfast, I didn’t get to eat right away because it was a very busy morning…

    It was worth the wait. When I did sit down, this is what I saw…

     

    fisheye breakfast

    Can you see it?

    Here… is this better?

    Egg face

    It made me all warm and fuzzy…

     Because… Karen cares about me enough to feed me…

    Because… it’s a smiley face and smiles always feel good…

    Because… it is a Face in a Thing…

    Because… it  reminded me of Seedsower, my friend, she always makes me happy…

    Because it made my morning!

    Have you ever had something so simple make your morning?
