Moments from today~
 

Things from today,
burned toast but
the porridge was delicious-frozen blueberries, walnuts, pumpkin & flaxseeds, w apple butter
cappuccino makes everything feel better
so glad all the holiday cooking is over(for the time being)
musing over gingerbread recipes, planning
happy hearing the cracklings from the fire, and to feel the warmth
wistfully missing warmer days but..
love wearing my cable knit sweaters
wondering what tomorrow will bring..

How bout you?

Moments
 

Meeting my boss at the park and ride this morning

Driving a couple of hours to the venue

Sharing the details of my big project with strangers

Remembering that sometimes it is better to be a friendly Texan than a scientist

Greeting strangers with a big smile and a "howdy, welcome"

TranslatIing complex information into simple terms

Thanking people for coming to learn more about my vision

Driving to the next town to repeat the process

moments~
 

things i'm enjoying-
the purring kitten on my lap
a muffin top
cozy fire &

Moments
 

Meeting my boss in the hotel lobby

Driving three hours to the end of Texas

Living at the event center for 9 hours

A good crowd for my project

A yummy and authentic Mexican food late lunch

Finally, rest with a margarita while watching the Saints vs Cowboys game

moments of today~
 

ice crystals dance on my window
read-ancient note written in red
steamy coffee reminds me..take a sip &

moments today
 

raspberry-lemon-apple-chia seed smoothie was so fine
enjoying coffee
revving for great workout
song on my mind
woodpeckers in ink

I lost my keys and could not unlock/open my desk drawers at work for days. Finally took my hammer drill and carbide bits into work yesterday. At lunch, I discreetly and so quietly drilled out the lock. It left a horribly gouged out, raggedy hole about the size of a half dollar. I can get into my desk drawers now. :) The guys at work call me Bob the Builder. LOL!

Of course I was joking about the discreet and quiet part. If our "Maw Maw" did not go to lunch yesterday and heard it, I bet she somehow found out what I did and reported me for destroying property. She tattle-tales on me every chance she gets! I will know by end of the day on Monday. Think I will take in a piece of metal and cover the hole, tidy it up first thing Monday morning before 8:00 a.m.

It is lame to call in a trouble ticket on equipment. One time I called twice about wobbly tables in the breakroom. After 2 weeks, non of these lazy men responded so I corrected the wobbles myself ... took all of 20 minutes using gorilla glue and some thin, customized pieces of wood I cut from 2x4's. Never a problem since!

Going to utah for my aunts funeral

(a)moment from today~
 

Music, when soft voices die,
Vibrates in the memory—
Odours, when sweet violets sicken,
Live within the sense they quicken.

Rose leaves, when the rose is dead,
Are heaped for the belovèd’s bed;
And so thy thoughts, when thou art gone,
Love itself shall slumber on.
Percy Shelly 1821

Well yesterday actually....

coffee

I had a nice nap and
dreamed that my sister and I were young again
I was about 18 and she was 12
we were riding our bikes

Moments from Today
 

Sometimes I think back on things that concerned others. I am sure some of them felt let down by me (not being perfect) and things I have said and done. I remember one in particular that had to do with a young lady who I offered to have her make me something and then a friend bought one elsewhere and we did not need two so I cancelled from this lovely woman and I think it turned her off. But, if she knew how it played on my mind I would only be happy to give her the promised price and receive nothing for it. If she contacted me I would be telling her how sorry I am this happened and hoped she would forgive me so we could communicate again on friendly terms. Anyway that was a big moment in my day. Regret.

dreaming ....

dreaming ....

while picking concord grapes ..
ruminating

Had a spat with the boy today
It wasn't serious enough to call an argument
We were both just tired and grumpy
We retreated to our separate corners of the house and took naps
All is well now

dreaming

I won $1000 in a radio contest today!
I was listening to the Braves game
They announced my name during the 6th inning
If any Brave hit a home run during the 6th, I would win a prize
Marcel Ozuna hit a homer!
(This doesn't make him any less of a jerk)

while enjoying grape jelly on toast ..

someone teasing me that in my next life i was coming back as a jar of coffee beans........oh no......being devoured ...would be tragic:alieninjar:

Rubbing warm, clean puppy fur
while she sleeps
and while she dreams -
her feet are moving

Actually, from last night

My Moon Doggy hasn’t been able to climb the steps because of the severe arthritis in her back legs. We’ve been medicating her, and recently she received a shot that’s supposed to really help a lot. Indeed it did! Last night she came to the foot of the steps, and refused to walk away. She wanted to come upstairs like she always used to. I offered to let her try, thinking she wouldn’t be able to, and that would be enough to appease her stubborn head. But instead, she climbed the steps! My baby slept upstairs with us ! I laid in bed listening to her soft snores that I have so dearly missed!
