Good morning, welcome to a small town along the highways as I made my way towards Valleyfield, Quebec.

.I looked up and saw the door leading …out to no where – then I spied this old concrete structure with the wonderful wrap around veranda.. it must have been a great vantage point for the town parades in the days of its past glory. I am thinking it could have been the village general store.., It was a delightful find.

Today’s thought -reflection.

Improve yourself to have a kinder heart

Do what you can to be caring and considerate to make others happy. ^(PL2021.3)

Here is something else to think about. The other day my neighbour said to me ” soon we won’t be able to enjoy a banana” .. when I Iooked puzzled she said.. “no seeds in the watermelons, no seeds in the bananas, our food is being so manipulated (GMO) there are no seeds to carry on the wonderful fruits and vegetables as we knew them. Sure enough, when I got home, my watermelon, had no seeds, not one. and…. I’m told you have to pick where you get your bananas, they are not always enjoyable to eat (texture)

Have a good day everyone!

Open road, clear blue skies, big fluffy white stratocumulus… there were numerous beauties framing the landscapes. The weather was balmy, sunny and picture perfect for a drive. I wanted to travel roads I’d not been on before. with the help of OnStar (a service I have with my Encore) I set out for a town over on the Quebec side going towards Montreal. I decided no radio… just the joy of allowing the thoughts to come and go… even turned the AC off and put the windows down.

What was startling .. and a realization that hit me, only as I was on my return drive… I saw few animals, I passed a “zillion” farms.. saw barns, out buildings etc. but not much activity, neither on the grounds around the farm, or around the many barns, silos, etc. A couple of times when I drove past small clusters of homes, or into and past a small village.. I saw the odd person walking a dog.. or jogging, and I did see two people on bikes, otherwise I was in a wonderland of pristine landscapes .. and weather that was perfect for my “adventure”

Look at this 1957 classic.. I had to stop and grab a photo… the owner’s wife was outside, she told me, her husband had just turned 57 and he had promised himself that on his 57th. birthday, he would celebrate by getting himself, his dream car. And voila! his pride and joy!

Let’s find the good in others and praise them.

All people have good qualities and bad qualities. Focus on the good in others and applaud them every chance you get.^(PL2014.28)

Having been on the road since very early morning, I wanted to find a “casse-croute” “before I headed home, I found a roadside “bar” before leaving Quebec… Chez Meme (accents over each e)

Here I ordered French fries, steamed hot dog (all dressed) and a hamburger (just in case).. found out I needed cash.. had to find a bank.. only one for miles was a Desjardin.. in this very small village, it was a small kiosk in the diocese of the church that was on the main street. I got to be a grown up and try to use an ATM in a bank other than my own. LOL … I needed help. See.. one is never too old to learn.

Have a good day everyone…

***Anyone know what type of car that is ??? she told me, and I saw the logo on the car.. but.. senior moment here?????

Thursday Doors

Does an open door intrigue and tease – do you often wander aimlessly looking for a place to be..

when out of the corner of your eye, you see… an open door, inviting you to enter

the sight brings a simple joy and pleasure … and look, there is a lot of space to simply rest and ignore that the rest of the world is sooo busy, but for now…

all you seek, is a place to rest and allow your mind chill….

All work and no play, is not what you need today… today is time for you to explore the open door.

It isn’t always easy, but when there is a will, there is a way!

If you face a situation head on, a path will open up.

No matter how hard the situation is, face it head on. If you approach it seriously you will be able to find a way to break through. ^(PL2014.26)

dragon

tick one more item off my bucket list. meet my forever dragon.

I have been a lifetime living with a mystical dragon who roamed the galaxy .. coming home from time to time to tell of his adventures or to lend support. Yesterday the wonderful tat artist from Brisbane, Australia was back in Ottawa (Samantha Read).. I was one of the fortunate ones able to book with her for this visit. Thank you Sam, I have waited a long time for my dragon to appear. You can see Sam’s work on Instagram,https://www.instagram.com/samreadtattoos/ she travels the globe, who knows you may be lucky and she will be headed your way at some time. Tats are not for everyone, you remember when I got my bee those many years ago. It was a big step for me… but I took it… and with that first step, came many “adventures”. I stepped out of my comfort zone, and found a whole new world of possibilities.

If you’re going to do it, do it joyfully.

If you have to do something, choose to do it with joy and enthusiasm. By doing so, you will experience a deeper sense of beauty. (PL.2014.23)

Happy start to a new week, make it a happy one!

Booooo hoooooo it is no longer light when I get up. Fall is officially here. Not crazy about the darkness, but love that fall is here and all the wonders of nature that begin to emerge.

You will find joy when you immerse yourself in your task.

When you face your tasks with a can do attitude, you will be filled with enthusiasm and inspiration. ^(PL2020.22)

Gathering a peanut in each cheek and if he can manage it, a third and even maybe a fourth.

Make today a different day.

Instead of doing the same old thing be creative and do things to improve your day.

Hello from Europe… welcome… come on in.

Value your intuition.

When you suddenly have an “a-ha!” moment, or a thought pops into your mind, it is God sending you a message As soon as you notice something, you should act upon it right away. (_PL2014.19)

WE are able to enjoy this post this morning, because a wonderful technician spent hours removing a nasty virus from my PC. I am so blessed to have friends with gifts/talents that are just out of my skill set. Thank you Wes.

Ron who is exploring Europe. shared the doors with us.

For those who have asked for info. on the ride that took pace last week-end, I’m working on it.. it was in doing research yesterday that my PC was blind sided with a nasty virus.

Last but not least, foodies out these, anyone else had cod livers packed in cod oil?

Happy Thursday everyone, Till soon.

Wow… thank you everyone for all the BD wishes… Not gonna let me forget are you… I’ve had so many over the years. I don’t think I’ll ever get used to them. I even got an invite from Movatti (health club) I am entitled to one of their very special shakes from the health bar.. I will take them up on that, Since my return after an absence of 7 years, I have not sampled their new offerings. It is not that I try to ignore my BD, but you know… after a number of them.. we kind of… want to just acknowledge them and roll with it. As my cousin (Brian) said, September is BD month. September babies are lucky we have the most beautiful month of the year to celebrate in, I’m not alone, there are a lot of September babies.. Happy Birthday fellow Virgos. https://youtu.be/k37QvhAyA2Y?si=2-OGJ2FnBAKVLTIJ
