a few weeks ago one of my McIntosh mugs was broken as we met in the garden for our weekly gathering… I’m sure it had nothing to do with the table I had put on a slant, lol…

we really enjoyed the opportunity to be outside, as nice warm days are getting few and far between…

after much searching online, I ordered a chickadee mug in my favourite shape…

it arrived today and I was pleased to see that it will look nice when I hold it…

most mugs only have the design visible for right handed people…

I’ve been thinking a lot recently about moments… as in, how easy it is to miss one…

this morning, the sun was shining through the patio doors and created a beautiful design on the side of the microwave… I spent time enjoying it and took a few photos… the shadows reminded me of the pictures I took during a photography class a number of years ago…

just a few minutes later I was in the kitchen and the design was gone… happy that I wandered in at just the right moment and had the chance to enjoy the sight;-)…

a bit later, I was walking on the spot and got to see a bunny running around the backyard… such a treat…

when I was in the garden, I spotted these lovely designs through the pergola and on the hot tub…

we won’t talk about the large amount of snow covering the hot tub;-(…

I am so blessed to have the opportunity to enjoy these…

had the most wonderful day…

walked over to the “A” and met my oldest grandson for breakfast…

on the way I came across a bunny having a snack and a goose looking for its friends…

after breakfast we went to Superstore and picked up a bunch of baskets to put in the front flowerbed…

we weeded… a lot… I cut back all the daisies so we can actually walk on the path up to the bridge over the pond…

we saw a butterfly on one of the chairs, found some jewellery for him to take home, got all the pots filled, and then washed the windows in the living and dining room while a thunderstorm rolled over…

he worked so hard in the side garden…

not perfect yet, but we are on the way… we redesigned how it is going to look and have a plan for once he gets back from his grad trip…

we ran out to the Outlet Mall and Polo Park and had leftover Chinese food for lunch…

sure do enjoy spend quality time with this young man…
