I have nothing to say here….

There’s probably some axiom about the fact that your sneeze
disappears as soon as you finally snatch a tissue from your little purse pack.

My dad wore that hat with the fake hair to our Monday
Mexican outing. He’s such a goober.

I added loops to one of my blankets & turned it into a
wall hanging for my office. I got some nice love when I posted it on my home
Facebook page, but I also posted it on the Moogly page (Moogly is the website
that runs the afghan crochet alongs that I follow) & I got 310 likes on that page. Dr. M has
started calling me an influencer. Ha!

I have no idea. I was inspecting
my face for something. But I do wonder what the heck was going on with my
bangs.
I have this thing about being
fascinated by the whole life cycle of cut flowers – I like them in their
raggedy state just as much as in their fresh glory. Dr. M says I’m just this
side of Morticia Addams. Ha!

Dr. M had a photo shoot with Mr. and Mrs. Bluebird.
We got a little bit of snow. The daffys weren’t too sure
about it, but it was pretty.

Dr. M enjoys the process of chopping up our collards. And
they were really good!

At the time I took this picture I had been eating this salad
for about 20 minutes. It took FOREVER to eat this thing! I felt quite virtuous
as I imagined that I was burning more calories than I was eating.
We’re heading into the season of Lent this coming week. I
have some things that I’m planning on doing to help prepare my heart for
Easter. As far as I know, none of my online readers are followers of the church
calendar, but these weeks leading into spring could also be a good time for you
to contemplate what’s working for you in your life and what could stand some
examination. Join me?
...what’s working for you in your life...
ReplyDeleteWith the genetic troubles I have with my heart, as long as it ticks I'm ahead of the game.
a friend of mine is a photographer and hje did a series of photographs of gone by dried up tulips in black and white and they were fabulous.
ReplyDeleteWe have become a bit lax in our Lenten devotions for the past few years. When the children were young it was a big part of our Easter celebration.
ReplyDeleteI often feel that way about eating salads and Chinese food. It seems like I eat and eat, but the food looks untouched!
ReplyDeleteI'm very different about cut flowers. As soon as they start fading, I start to pick through the arrangement and toss the sickly ones. I cannot stand to have dead and dying things around.
I love watching flowers fade and set seed in the wild, but I don't like dead and dying in a vase. In fact, I've not had fresh flowers in the house for years. I guess I've spent too much time with the growing ones on the prairie. I look at them in the store and all I can think is, "You were MURDERED!" Yeh, I'm crazy.
ReplyDeleteI used to cook collards all the time in Liberia, and liked them a lot. We ate them with things added to them like palm oil and dried fish. It was better than you'd think.
I post on most of the major liturgical feasts, actually: Ash Wednesday, Good Friday, Epiphany. Easter and Christmas of course. I love the liturgical calendar, and the music and art that goes with the year. We Lutherans dig such stuff!
Salads. We have them when SWMBO makes them. For me, a wedge of iceberg and some blue cheese dressing does the job. Oh, I love Judy's fruit salads, too.
ReplyDeleteI like your daffodil picture. I think if we had snow here in late February, I'd look about the same - limp and face down!
ReplyDeleteDaffodils really do have to endure a lot, don't they?!
ReplyDeleteYour last question is an interesting one. I'll have to think about it.
