Sundaystills “Connecting”

It felt like mumbo jumbo…the year end post and a couple of blog challenges and the word of the year. Nothing flowing at all.

And then, what was right in front of my face appeared plainly while I was out for a snow shoe on a bright sunny day.

Expectations of the Season

The alarm jolted into my brain and I awoke to the dark of winter during a snow storm. Somehow 0605 seems easier when the sun is blazing in and the birds are chirping. But there you have it. We can’t always pick and choose.

A Serendipitous Encounter

There are a lot of things that can be said about social media with a heavy portion of the equation being negative. There is a bright side, for me at least.

#Blueskiesandsunshine

My favourite hashtag is #blueskiesandsunshine and that’s what yesterday was all about. Not so much today but I try hard, sometimes unsuccessfully, not to whine about the weather.

Trailing it…

I feel incredibly blessed to have many walking trails right outside our back door and through The Gateway. Even when we lived in the city I sought out the nature walks along the river. It grounds me even if the trail is hard slugging (think tall tall grasses or deep deep snow) or hard to find (mostly cow and deer trails and sometimes they disappear). I love to take my littles on a walk and they love to go. There is always something new to see even, when one walks the same area regularly, if observant and mindful. Plus it seems I sort out a lot of mental headspace when I walk.

Finish It — Friday Edition

Many years ago… far far away…I learnt something. And seems I’m on a posting roll and felt a Friday was a good time to share that tidbit.

Only a matter of time

“They” say it’s just a matter of time and now I am seriously bloody annoyed with “they”.

V Formation

The gentle raindrops fell from a heavy grey sky. It’s felt like the radical weather change had arrived to signal a departure.

To do or not to do…

I wiped the chalkboard clean for I was under doctor’s orders to be a couch potato for the weekend. The to-do list would have to wait.
