My daily morning meditative walk in the garden. Sometimes I start weeding still in my pjs and bathrobe.Bitter melon happiness in the greenhouse. 2 beautiful melons growing and thriving. A butterfly on its leaf greeted me, opening and closing its wings.Killing 2 days with one stone. Day 22 and 23/61 Daisy Yellow Index Card a Day Challenge. A PINEAPPLE with PURPLE hair. It’s fun to let go and let my brush have its way.Last evening’s mini version of Monday’s downpour. Failed to capture the thunder and lightning.Things are getting crowded in the greenhouse. I finally pruned out the snowpeas to give the peppers more elbow room and light. They needed a little moral support from the tomato cages. Hopefully they will now get more robust. They are flowering.Despite our strange weather of drought and flood , things are growing by leaps and bounds. We’ve got the tomatoes strung up to keep them on the straight and narrow.Day 21/61 Daisy Yellow Index Card a Day Challenge. Summer SOLSTICE sure brought a huge rainstorm to my city.Day 20/61 Daisy Yellow Index Card a Day Challenge. Can a OUIJA BOARD give us answers from beyond?Day 19/61 Daisy Yellow Index Card a Day Challenge. I did it know about SELVEDGE jeans, did you? How they are different from other jeans is beyond me.Sweet morsels from the greenhouse and garden.Instagram

TOWARDS WINTER SOLSTICE
December 15th. Winter solstice is just a week away. I had good intentions of being here regularly but I’ve only shown up twice. Bad on me! Intentions don’t mean beans when they’re not kept. But I am here now. My … Continue reading

THOSE DIFFICULT THINGS
The difficult things are so hard to do. I hem and haw, twiddle and twaddle, scroll here and there. I do everything except the things that I need to do. I scratch my head and wonder why that is. I … Continue reading
THE GREAT SALINE SOLUTION
Summer is overrated. That’s what I think. Sometimes I feel mean spirited, like Lady Tremaine, Cinderella’s wicked stepmother. Am I, though? Is it true? Is it really true? That’s the question Byron Katie would ask. Am I mean spirited and … Continue reading

IN MY LIFE
I’m in my apres- lunch malaise. It is after 3 pm. No time to tarry as they say. I’m in this space, tapping the keyboard, talking with my fingers, singing my songs. I hear Killing Me Softly with His Song … Continue reading

DOING THE WORK
It is the afternoon slump period. I’m trying to push through it with my tap, tapping at the keyboard. One load of laundry done this morning and drying outside. Another load is in the washer. Lunch is consumed and dishes … Continue reading

FILLUPS AND TURNAROUNDS – Day 66 and 67 in a year of….
Day 66 and 67, September 27, 2016 @8:48 am I’m attempting to do the great turnaround this morning – doing the ‘work’ of Byron Katie. I’m asking questions, seeking their validity and seeing if there is another way of seeing. I … Continue reading

INQUIRY – Day 17 in a year of……
Day 17, August 8, 2016 @4:17 The rain is making me sleepy and all I want to do is nap, nap, nap. Motivation is low. Routine and habit brought me back to this space. I have to sit and sip … Continue reading

TELL ANOTHER STORY
I take my first sip of tea. Sheba barks at a passerby. It’s Monday. It’s a cool 3 degrees Celsius sunlit morning. Gold and orange leaves drift down my elm trees and roll across the sidewalk. I think of the … Continue reading

IS IT TRUE?
Yesterday, I discovered exercise was the best medicine for my nervous jumping heart. I was grateful for the loud music next door that pushed me onto my bike. It was nice my SO (Significant Other) accompanied me. We headed off … Continue reading
