9:36pm


9:36pm
I'm craving insect noises
Sweet & sticky humidity
Grassy fields w/wild flowers
Southern drawls
Thunder rumbling off aways
A balmy breeze
Vic's damp hand around mine
Eyes closed
Listening to nature

Jo,
I'm really enjoying your "timepieces." They are so short and simple, but a capture the moment so well. Also like your artwork with them!
Thank you Lizzi. Not sure where I got the idea from ('it just came to me!') but I'm having fun with it and it's getting me to write nearly every day, which I need desperately to do.

I love that term -- timepieces. Perfect for these. This is the time of year that we yearn for summer.
I'm not actually a fan of summer. (High heat and/or humidity and my health don't get along well). There are brief times when I don't mind the warmth and humidity brings out the scents in my gardens and it's like heaven. (It's amazing to stand among the flowers just before a storm). What I'm really longing for right now I think is some quiet time in nature with Hubb's. (A trip up to the family cabin in PA is nearing, I can feel it!)

These little glimpses into your day are great! What a cool idea.
Thanks Thauna! I'm having fun with them by doing the little color pieces and it's getting me to write nearly every day, which is great.

2nd Annual Practical Magic Blog Party 2011 is Here! *Updated*

It's time for the 2nd Annual Practical Magic Blog Party created & hosted by the wonderful Anna of Frosted Petunias ! My sincerest apologies for getting this up rather late! The adventure that is post Hurricane Irene cleanup & repairs has been taking up too much time recently. (sigh) Things are a mess; I only started decorating for Autumn yesterday and I'm missing Halloween decorations! Luckily my broom is always safe and sound by the front door so at least I don't have to wonder where it is. (Not that it hasn't been known to scamper off now and again - naughty broom). I was afraid, quite honestly, that I wouldn't even get a post up sometime today! I kept hitting dead ends with every other one I tried. But, this morning I sat here at the computer and it flowed. Thankfully! I would have been so disappointed if I'd missed this, it was such fun last year! As some may remember from last years party, while I like the movie, (and love that house!), I love the...

The Time Is Upon Us Once Again!

Welcome Friends! It's time once again for A Fanciful Twist Halloween Party ! Warmest thanks to the lovely Vanessa for hosting again this year. My apologies for not having this up sooner, I've been dreadfully under the weather and my helpers have been more of a hindrance! My lovely kitchen witch Helvetica has given up time off and has been cooking & baking away since last night but the skeletons have been eating everything in sight (damn their bottomless stomachs!) though they won't fess up and the invisible man has been raving on and on every time the door bell rings! I do hope you'll enjoy your visit to Pumpkin Manor and have a Happy Halloween ! I look forward to your return.

11:14pm (3/16/09) Watching a documentary Tennessee is so beautiful Head & nose all stuffy Out of ZyrtekD - sigh Want to read but distracted by my clogged head Hubby's snoring a little, restless a lot I worry about him He's so tired, works so much Doesn't get to do what he enjoys often enough (If at all) He willingly took my burdens & made them his own I'm still not used to being taken care of Makes me uncomfortable, guilty I took care of things for so many years Are 2 persons "stuff" too much for 1 person? Even a good, strong man? I know what it is to do more than my "fair share" Though the situation was completely different Is the end result the same?
