big girl pants, blessed, geese, inukshuk, moments, nature, orange, overcast, pavilion, pictures, rain, walk, weather, widow, yellow

went just a few streets further on my walk this morning…

it was overcast and a bit cool, which made it perfect for walking;-)…

today, orange and yellow seemed to be the colours that drew me…

it is fun to look at houses and how front yards are designed… even came across an Inukshuk…

caught some geese that were flying right above me…

and had a different view of the Park bridge, ice sculpture and pavilion…

glad I went early, as not too long after I got home it rained for ages…

last night on my way home I picked up an iTunes card so that I could upgrade one of my apps, and now I have some more shapes to play with for pictures, lol…

enjoyed a quiet day watching Olympics and napping…

I did run over to Total Wrapture to have the shellac removed from my fingernails…

for some reason the beautiful white French manicure turned a strange shade of yellow/orange… the aesthetician had never seen anything like it… that’s me… special… although the polish didn’t chip, my nails do not feel great now that it has been scraped off…

the sunshine made me think it was warm out, but with the wind, it was rather chilly…

final other activity was to take some pictures of my flowers in the sunlight…

that yellow ball in the sky really does brighten everything up;-)…

so happy… there are flowers everywhere…

yellow daffodils in the kitchen last night…

then they travelled in the car this morning on their way to the office…

found their final destination on the counter at the front of the office…

remind me of sunshine and smiley faces…

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…

daffodils…

big girl pants, cancer, daffodils, memories, widow, yellow

yesterday daffodils were delivered as part of a cancer fundraiser that we’ve supported for a number of years…

this year we ordered a few extra bunches in memory of our colleague who died last year…

it was lovely to see them when I arrived this morning… brought back good and bad memories…

  
she was a lovely person and I think of her often… she loved orange and yellow too…

delicious…

beans, beets, big girl pants, blanch, delicious, remote, timer, tv, yellow

last night I prepared another five pounds of beans… this time, yellow ones…

  
the great news was that I was sitting on my bed watching tv as I prepped them… my son-in-law came by and replaced the dead one and then carefully explained how this particular one works… let’s hope I remember all the instructions, lol…

can even set the sleep timer from the main remote control… for the previous one I had to use two remotes… I am very happy…

got my big pasta pot and blanched all of the beans for three minutes…

  
not sure why I didn’t use this pot for the green beans… sped up the process nicely…

  
cold bath and then into bags…

  
filled eleven bags and also had a lovely bowl filled for my supper…

  
they were very tasty and I also had fresh beets… such a delicious time of the year…
