big girl pants, colours, happy, orchid, sky, sleep

the sky was lovely yesterday morning…

   

luckily I was able to take a few pictures as I was the passenger in the car… the colours were very pretty…

  
a beautiful sky makes me very happy…

when I got home I slept for an hour while my supper was cooking… then, after I ate, I slept through a number of shows and woke up in time to go to bed… and I slept all night… apparently I was really tired…

  
this orchid is so gorgeous… makes me smile every time I look at it…

it was beautiful outside today…

got some lovely shots of the sun rising…

caught the red sun  at just the right moment...

just a few minutes later the colours changed dramatically…

just a few minutes later…

was in the computer room and had to take a picture of the trees outside the window… the hoarfrost was absolutely beautiful…

through the computer room window...

heading out to do some shopping, I had to stop the car and get a few pictures of the trees on the street covered in hoarfrost… still have to check how the ones I took with my Nikon came out…

hoarfrost down the street...

hoarfrost down the street…

I was trying to get a shot of the snowflakes on the windshield, but that didn’t work with my phone, lol…

ended the day putting up a small tree in the living room and started putting on the ornaments… this year I am trying to do some of the decorating differently and am having to choose what I will put out and where I will put it which certainly slows down the process…

after all that discovered that the light in the bedroom wasn’t working and changing the bulb didn’t fix it… gave up and will deal with it tomorrow… I did see a lovely table lamp on tv tonight that might look very nice…

there were a lot of trees in my day…

big girl pants, colours, dream, Fall, George, hurtling, leaves

on my way home Friday night I really noticed the changing colour of the leaves…

this picture shows the Virginia creeper in the garden… more and more red…

IMG_8319.JPGI’ve also noticed leaves coming down everywhere… besides yellow ones drifting down in the garden, I’ve noticed piles where they have dropped en masse under some trees…

the trees across the creek are looking beautiful as fall advances…

IMG_8320.JPG George and I used to take a drive on a Sunday in the fall to see the beautiful colours along the highway…

I don’t remember dreams, but lately I’ve been dreaming about him… woke up a few days ago thinking he was downstairs making breakfast… took a few minutes for my new reality to sink in…

IMG_8321.JPGmore colours looking out the windows… feels as though fall is hurtling towards us…

big girl pants, colours, Mexico, Olympics, pictures, precious, sky, suoper

lovely day…

sun shone and the wind blew… watched the last of the Olympics and organized supper… finally Jeff and I got our ham fix…

after dinner my youngest grandson and I sat on the couch and watched the beautiful sky…

we saw blue and pink and purple and gray and at one point even some green…

then we looked at pictures from our trip to Mexico and read an abc book where he pointed out the letters that make up his name and finger-drew them for me…

precious…
