Hump Day!!

Here is one of the Terrarium gardens , the bird slid off the rock in travel, a broken pot chard; some colorful tiny rocks, tiny plants and something that looked like seaweed and a few forest animals.

Lake Tahoe, a favorite place for me....and a million others...smile!!

Hey there, good morning, I have not opened the blinds yet so cannot see what kind of a day we are to have for a mystery trip.   We will take off at eleven and go some place for lunch out and then travel some roads, but what roads, where?   um.....yet to be found out.   Last time I checked the list there were twelve signed up, so a full bus for a change.   I wonder how many will drop out before the bus has a chance to warm up.   Some folks want to go, but, one excuse and they back down and stay ''home".  It is like the ladies who come to sing for us.  A small group of eight elderly ladies with a few younger one thrown into the mix, all sopranos and one very talented piano player.  I love piano and could listen to someone play for hours .  They are all volunteers, so  no one can complain.  We hummed along, can't remember all the words to some of the old tunes but they are familiar and bring back a memory or two.    "Broadway baby says goodnight, it's early in the morning" ...la, la, la....." and a dozen others to hum to.   Only eleven showed up, others went and played cards then wonder why we don't have more events.   Samantha served cupcakes.   So there was some toe tapping and a lot of humming and I'd say a good time was had by all.  

I took myself for a walk up the block and back for some fresh air and exercise.  The wind was a bit chilly and blowing the rest of the leaves from the trees.  The leaves are brittle now, dried and take off like a small kite trying to reach the sky but only manage to skirt the bushes and pile up.   Their once bright colors are faded and the end of another Fall season is put to rest.    Winter is about to come, you can feel it in the air.    The holiday season is coming and you can feel it in the stores...smile.     

So, I am off to have a refill, fix some toast, raisin toast with peanut butter;  maybe you would like to join me and we will  stay healthy, wealthy and wise.....no guarantees but worth a try!!   Be good, be kind, be a giver;.  Give of yourself.   Give some time.  Give some encouragement.  Give some of your talents some fresh air and share YOU with those you like and love.   Don't forget at least a dozen hugs today, make a few 'bear' hugs and feel the love.    Be YOU.   Hugs to all.
