Covered Porches and Wooden Screen Doors

I watered the flowers and weeded the garden. For the past three mornings at 4:20 am a bird has started whistling outside our window. Luckily, I have to get up at 4:30 am for work, so I really don’t mind. Do birds have clocks? It’s just strange that it is at the same time for the past three mornings. Now if he does it on Saturday---- we’re going to have to talk…..


Here is another favorite mug. While my photography is not the best in the world, it says

“I hope that while so many people are out smelling the flowers
someone is taking the time to plant some.”

I liked it.

Eric is on his way to France. Don and Chelsey drove him to the airport. It’s definitely a different sound in the house when you are home alone.

Gratitudes:
1. Small doses of silence. It’s kind of nice.
2. A job that leaves me time to enjoy summer afternoons.
3. Iced tea.
4. My laptop to write these thoughts down.


Until tomorrow--- live up today.
