the past week the sky has been outstanding…

Monday the sunset was a deep red… and within minutes changed to a lovely pink…

Tuesday morning was another stunner…

Wednesday evening, the blues and pinks were lovely…

and Thursday the deep reds were back…

Friday I was a touch late getting a photo, but caught the last little bit of light before the sun went down…

so pleased to have enjoyed all of these views of the sun…

yesterday morning, while I was sitting in the living room, I had some fun watching this little guy collect and snack on sunflower seeds in the sunlight;-)…

they may have given me the stink eye…

now that the pond is empty and covered with the tarp, the camera isn’t really needed, so it came into the house…

happily, the bottom of it fit perfectly on the camera tripod…

set it up by the window where the bird feeder is attached…

this is particularly good now as the mandevilla blocks the view through the window…

looking forward to getting some great views of the guests at the feeder;-)…

had an idea the other day when I was watching tv upstairs… I’ve been thinking it was time to change up the display in the living room table, so I got started…

found a number of framed photos from the computer room and my collection of fancy gemstones…

I gathered up some of my angels… I have given away most of them, but kept a few of my favourites, lol…

brought everything to the living room table and had a lovely time putting them into the squares…

remembering where they came from and why they were special to me…

such a lovely walk down memory lane;-)…

one of the loveliest things about this time of the year is the beautiful light in the kitchen…

makes me smile when I walk into the space in the morning…

especially after all the work my son-in-law got done in the summer;-)…

so much to be thankful for…

this year my daughter was here in March and my son-in-law in August…

I spent hours in the garden…

met my friends on a regular basis in the garden all summer… previously, we haven’t met very often during that time as everyone was busy…

saw, texted, and spoke on the phone with many friends… made a new one and enjoyed getting to know them…

worked on changes in the vegetable garden… grew peas, beans, cucumbers, and tomatoes…

was visited by monarchs and swallowtails and a beautiful little hummingbird…

enjoyed bouquets of flowers all summer, thanks to a birthday subscription from the kids…

had many projects completed, in the house and the garden…

life is very good…

went for a walk the other day and enjoyed the colours…

the trees were looking so beautiful…

I came across these Halloween decorations just waiting to be turned on…

I bet they will look great when they are blown up…

I had a lovely time…

my hair went from being fine… to unmanageable, in what felt like a minute, about last Wednesday… I nearly tried out the freshly sharpened scissors, but managed to hold off until this morning when I walked over to Ultracuts to get it dealt with… had to wait for a bit, so went for a walk, rather than sit inside…

the weather was nice, particularly as it was supposed to rain all day…

along the way I spotted some murals and got a nice shot of this one…
