big girl pants, clematis, flowers, Friday, garden, goldfinch, moon, photos, widow

woke up just before 5 to go to the bathroom and when I put on my glasses saw this beautiful moon out the window…

usually I see the moon out the window between 10:30 and 11:30 pm… seemed odd to see it so early in the morning, and was happy to get a great photo…

almost forgot to put out the garbage and recycling on my way to the garage… then I took a few pictures of the clematis… was surprised at how many flowers were open…

there are tons of blooms on it and more opening every day… starting the day looking at flowers is the best…

to top off the day, as I was making my supper I looked out and saw this goldfinch at the feeder…

haven’t seen many so far this year… got the best photo from upstairs…

sure am happy it is Friday…

article, big girl pants, blue, chocolate, clouds, moon, sky, widow

this morning I got to have the chocolate cupcake that I didn’t have last night…

it went very well with my new purple and blue mug;-)… and was tasty… just read an article saying chocolate cake in the morning is good for you…

at the end of the day got this shot of the clouds…

lovely to look at, and maybe, the first blue sky we’ve seen all day…

I’ve just taken this shot of the moon and deep blue sky over the neighbour’s house… I was expecting a better quality picture because of the newer phone, but maybe I  need to do a bit of reading on this…

big girl pants, let go, light, moon, negative, positive, sunset, widow

for the last few days I’ve been noticing how much light there is in the morning and into the evening…

just yesterday I went down to the basement without needing to turn on a light…

got this lovely shot of the moon when I arrived at the office…

and at the end of the day I caught this beautiful sunset…

been thinking about how time goes by so quickly and how important it is to let go of the negative and focus on the light…

continue to work toward focussing on the good… and not letting myself get stuck in the negative…

beloved, big girl pants, eclipse, Grandpa, grandson, hot tub, moon, shovelling, stomach, tummy, widow

rough day physically… woke up early with a very painful tummy which stayed that way… made it through the day at the office so I’d be there for an afternoon party for a colleague who was leaving…

ate very little because of the stomach stuff so am currently waiting for something to be delivered… I do love SkipTheDishes…

noticed this gorgeous sunset when my grandson and I arrived home… lovely to spend a few minutes enjoying it even when I was feeling sick…

and then my grandson shovelled… he is certainly much faster than his grandpa, lol…

always feel ready for company once everything is cleaned up out there…

was just out for a hot tub and watched the full moon for a long time… did not see any part of the eclipse though, or the comet…

missing my beloved who would have looked after me…

was picked up at the office and got this shot of the moon which is going to be full tomorrow…

had a delicious supper at my daughter’s and then we headed to my grandson’s band concert… sat between the two little boys and had lots of fun, sharing chocolate and almonds…

the concert was great and certainly brings home the season…

what a gift to be able to attend special events like this…

apple crisp, barbecue, big girl pants, dinner, kids, moon, Park, Pokémon Go, quiet, super, widow

yesterday morning the sky was lovely…

a quiet day with a few chores around the house…

kids came over for supper and we had barbecued pork chops… tasty…

my daughter made a very nice apple crisp for our dessert…

then we drove over to the Park and did some Pokémon Go hunting… lovely walk in the dark around the Riley Duck Pond and by the Leo Mol Sculpture Garden…

the super moon was so big and beautiful… happy that we had lots of time to admire it because tonight the sky doesn’t have a single visible star in it… lots of others out Pokémoning too…

a large buck ran right past us as we were circling the Pond… amazing…

lots of spectacular views…

brighter…

big girl pants, colleagues, construction, flowers, healing, moon, walk, widow, work, yellow

as I headed out this morning I took this picture of the moon… looked much better in real life…

had to run to the grocery store before work because there was no tea at the office, lol…

but I spent a few minutes in the floral department… always fun… picked up some lovely yellow flowers for someone who is struggling with the flu… the florist mentioned that yellow is the colour of healing…

went for a walk with a couple of colleagues at lunchtime… sunny and warm… nice to get out and enjoy some fresh air…

at the end of the day as I was heading home I noticed these construction people way up high working away… it was chilly and a little windy…

I could not imagine doing that… ever…

reminds me of how lucky I am with my own job, lol…

. soup, big girl pants, ChefsPlate, dark, early, meatballs, moment, moon, widow

up and out very early this morning for a work event…  it was really dark…

no birds out and about at this hour, lol…

the parking lot was empty but I got a nice shot of the church steeple…

we all enjoyed the turkey vegetable soup at lunchtime… there was a single bowl left… always a good sign…

when I arrived home the ChefsPlate box was at the garage door… was really tired but decided I would make one of the meals…

chose smokey pork meatballs over cracked wheat with sautéed Brussels sprouts and peppers… really appreciate the clear directions…

took about thirty minutes to pull it together… it was delicious and I have lunch for tomorrow…

as I lay watching some PVRed shows I am enjoying the beautiful moon through the window… didn’t even bother to take a photo…

enjoying the moment;-)…
