had some fun taking flower pictures yesterday…

the crocus and hyacinth are doing very well and enjoying the light in the living room… also some tulips at the grocery store…

orchid blooms are looking lovely and I picked up an orchid on sale at Save-On-Foods that is now living in the bedroom…

happiness…

one of the reasons I went shopping on Sunday was to get flowers…

it is that season again when I really need them to brighten the atmosphere in the house… it is also a time when I particularly miss my beloved…

he always made sure I had flowers all the time during these cold and dreary months… and all over the house…

I can see and smell them in every room;-)…

I hope you have something in your life that brings you happiness…

for the first week in Ottawa I slept on the pull-out couch in the living room as my son-in-law’s mom had the bedroom…

these were my digs, lol…

my suitcase was in my daughter’s office, where I would change… with all the chocolate, lol… at night we’d pull out the bed and I had the window ledge for my stuff… the whole system worked fine…

once my son-in-law’s mom left on New Year’s Day, I moved into new digs;-)…

there was a lovely message on their Airbnb board just for us;-)…

I added my new very soft purple blanket to the bottom of the bed…

and then, they added flowers and I added a new laptop;-)…

yesterday I received a message that some flowers were coming my way…

I spoke with the florist who advised they would arrive before end of day…

but then, 6 pm came and went… they usually close at that time, so I figured there would be no flowers…

around 7:30 they arrived… still wasn’t sure who was sending them…

they were well wrapped because it was cold outside…

opened them up to discover a beautiful bouquet of orchids, roses and carnations…

they were from a Toronto supplier I had worked with over the last ten years…

a lovely surprise…

last Friday I was presented with a lovely bouquet of flowers by our Board…

I have been taking pictures of them ever since… so happy to have my camera back to do so…

today I trimmed the stems and put the flowers into a different vase…

flowers make me happy and taking pictures of them is very relaxing…

beauty is surrounding me… blessed…

first thing in the morning the orchids and hibiscus greet me… it is exciting to see which ones are getting ready to open… wondering how many might open at once…
