the weather has been a bit crazy lately… it was warm and then it changed and has been cold and windy for the last while…
today I took some photos…
the snow on the driveway had melted a bit and after the wind today, it looks like glass all the way up… hoping the car will still be able to make it without sliding down…
and in the backyard the new snow has put a slight blanket over the decks…
it is so much easier these days… most electronics in the house automatically change…
now the only items I have to change are the stove, microwave, coffee pot, and grandparent clock…
I didn’t mind the process even before then because it was simple to change a phone, or anything else, by moving it forward, unlike changing it backwards in the Fall…
I’ve been a bit off, and grumpy, for the last little while, and it wasn’t until I was talking with my daughter that I realized the cause…
I hadn’t been paying much attention to the calendar as most of the time feels like Saturday or Sunday now that I am retired, lol…
it has been thirteen years to the day since my beloved passed…
feels a bit like it snuck up on me although in the past month I have had several dreams about finding him in the hospital with a disconnected breathing tube in his mouth… no one had told me he was dead…
seems strange that after all this time I can still be whacked with the grief…
the good news is that once I figure out what has been causing the discomfort, it usually passes and I am able to move forward in a more positive frame of mind…
I don’t forget him, but can get back to remembering all of the wonderful times we had together and make new memories of the wonderful life that I do have…
this photo of trees is one of the last I took with him… we had taken a drive through the park to see the hoarfrost…
time to change up the drawer in the living room table for this next season…
put away the L O V E letters, butterflies, and dragonflies that have been in it since sometime after Christmas… I also packed up all of the heart decorations that had been out…
I put a colourful sarong in each of the four squares and then put all the crystals, which had been part of the last display, back on top of them…
looks good and I topped it off with my rock bowl filled with my Crystal Oracle cards;-)…
