Yesterday was my trash pickup day.  When I went to put my container out at the road there were a couple of photo shots I saw that I wanted to take but, not the kind where I needed to run inside and get my camera right then.  I decided to wait until later when I […]

When you were little did you have an imagination?  Did you read much?  I was, and still am, a reader.  We didn’t go places and travel like some people do today.  We played outside and made up games and things to do.   My favorite place to play was in the woods.  My mind would […]

Have you ever had a night where you go to bed and go to sleep then, you wake up about 2:30am?  I had one of these last night.  I got up, went to the bathroom then, went back to bed.  I lay there not going back to sleep because I got an idea in my […]

I get to work at the library today.  I am going to be training a new volunteer while I am there.  It is always exciting to train someone because, they realize how rewarding it is to work there.  We had a board meeting last night to make the final decisions about our 5th year celebration.  […]

The temperature was warmer last night so, we have a nice fog this morning.  What do you think when you see fog?  I guess it depends upon whether you have to drive in it or if you can just watch it.  To some people it invokes a sense of mystery.  I guess that comes from […]

It is really wonderful getting up every morning when you have a chorus of birds singing outside your window.  It was not this cardinal but, there was a bird with the sweetest song singing outside my bedroom.  I have numerous feeders out with wild bird seed in them so, it’s no wonder I have lots […]
