tag, your turn

rensei-2016-h

Life is happily moving along, life is very good, there appears to be chaos around you, but in your little world, each day is a brand new, happy day.

And then, and then, surprise, the magic wand comes around and a little tap, tap tap, and darn, something changes.

You get a new computer, because your old, true blue friend, simply refuses to budge, you shut down one night, and it simply refused to wake up. Yes, the new one is top of the line able to do all that you want it to do. However, it is not warm and fuzzy, it doesn’t remember your last dinner for two, it has not shared any real “moments” with you. It is a cold black, metal box.

Nothing is where it used to be, and every time you turn it on. you just know you will discover another learning curve. Sigh. I know, these opportunities are sent to keep our gray matter from getting sluggish. To keep us eager for more knowledge, encourage our creativity.

Great way to start the day, how is your day going? Change is good, mantra for the day, change is good, change is good..

Smiles and waves, good morning, it is the start of a Friday, I’m told there are black Friday sales going on everywhere. Even here in Canada. time to take a break and go out to play.

I know my new friend here on my desk will be waiting for me when I return.

snow moment

Snow what a blessing

from above, crystals

with prisms that catch the light

an art form,

that can dazzle and delight

bear,brown

it is true, we can’t fall asleep

in plain sight,

enjoying the sun the same way

we can in summer

5a701bd593efe64e15011440fa8e4b83

oh, but other delights await us

and the winter fun can begin

the slops are being groomed

snowshoes are being readied

I can smell the baking pies

and anticipate the wonder

in the children’s eyes

the happy smiles

when they fly down a hill

all bundled up, on their first toboggan ride

oh dear.. there is always

an old bear, who wants us to know

winter or not

he will have his time in the sun

e2760a3f4b9e64f18574b0e77617cd46

truth be told

he is right of course,

no matter the season

there is never a good reason

to get out and enjoy

the day no matter what

c5b5e68e2d3cd091f2032be260d84e01

I for one

will wear my new dress

and have fun

Stir Fry Saturday

46b09b9ce3f80e5df91778e116cec8ff

Yup.. shopping for supplies I will need for my February, and spring cards. Time to think ahead. On my list of places to go was a big art supply store in a major shopping mall. I did not get there early, so…………. I was there at a time when the parking lot was wall to wall vehicles and shoppers were in possibly every walking space in the halls between the stores.

This is only November. Imagine in the States where they still have Thanksgiving to go, before they are hit with the Xmas shopping frenzy. All around me I heard people talking about their lists, and how far they had gotten, and what was left to look for.

Penguins are big this year. I know the above is a Puffin, he’s a cutie, thought I’d give him some “press” =^_^= So many of the clothing stores, had some kind of sweater with a penguin on it. You will get to see a lot of them if you are out looking around. The other thing being marketed is the Ugly Sweater… These are new .. is the whole idea of the “ugly sweater” not to come up with a vintage one from days gone by??? Anybody?

Just so you know, this is what is coming, or so we are being told. In preparation for such an event, I have begun to stock up, for days of “nesting” Which brings me back to my card making. =^_^= How well are you prepared for the next couple of months. If you are in a climate with 4 seasons, and winter is ahead, do you have your snow tires yet? Are they on the car/truck?

While I made my way from one shopping location to another, via the highways, (stayed away from the downtown area, Santa was having his parade today) I mumbled to myself that it was time, I took week-ends off from going out and about. from now on, it will only get busier.

PL Precept # 17 Grasp what is most Essential

PL Precept # 19 Begin Once you Perceive

I got a lot done, and best of all, I had a lot of time when waiting at lights, and traffic slow downs to think about how much I will enjoy my extra hours of “nesting” once my chores are done.

Keep repeating, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 IF that failed to work, start over again.

Then a friend sent me this link, after watching… the above moment had passed.

Dancing on Water-Chinese Art of Bamboo drifting

A lifetime can be a minute, depends on your perception. Today IS another day. Get out there and enjoy it.

Had we had the room, I would have liked to have had the rock moved, to come home with us…captured its boldness with the lens instead. When there is a will, there is a way.

Please ..there is special Lady needing our prayers. yesterday she lost a finger,…. a musician, this is a devastating shock to her, her family and friends, need our support. A quiet moment with a simple healing prayer for all who need our strength today, will be greatly appreciated.

Respect and Acceptance

Mural on the side of an old building as you drive through a little town on old Hwy 31.

The building is empty, there is a rental sign on the window off the front entrance. Where it had been a thriving community at one time, it is now a delightful little piece of history, as cars whiz by towards their destination further along the highway.

What seems so important today, can be a faint memory in the years to come. We live in a world today, that has so much to offer, we intermingle with so many cultures, it is a time to prosper and learn from one another.

It is my prayer that we will not squander away, what so many have worked so hard for, fought for, and died for……

Lesson 13 of the 2016 =PL Calendar…. Each person has their own special qualities. Each of us is born with a unique personality, and a unique worldview. Be respectful of others and learn to get along with people of all types.

be still my heart

Chrome… beautiful shining chrome.some women love diamonds, they are nice, however, a well looked after bike, all polished up and warm from the ride.. Aaaahhh bliss.

p1000568 The rider had stopped for a break, I was close enough to the bike I could hear her settling down, the little pings, and noises that she made… what a beautiful sound. I toured her, and enjoyed viewing her. I believe that even inanimate objects know when they are loved and cared for. This lady had to purr when she was on the highway. Her owner took really good care of her. She had every right to be proud.

p1000567 I did meet the owner ,=^_^= , when I was asked how did I know who owned the bike, I needed only to look, they must have cut quite the figure when the two of them took to the roads. Thank you Paul for being so courteous to someone who fell in love with your very special “lady”.

PL Principle # 3 – I will live with a mind of appreciation towards others and things..

Never limit your dreams… appreciate the world around you… One second can be a lifetime. The time spent with that Harley had the excitement and thrill of delightful flirtation that took bloom and flew into the storehouse of my daydreams. It was a WOW factor

WE should all have them.. =^_^=

Riding such a bike on an open stretch of road, (secondary road) through valleys, hillsides.. would be AMAZING… The freedom of the open road, skies over head stretching out into forever, Yum….. no radios. no electronic gadgets, just the purring of the engine, and “man” riding as one. YESSSSS

fall day, 9th. Nov.

Sometimes it is hard to see where one part of a picture begins and where it ends. Is it one or is it two. It all comes down to perspective.

some leaves fall and retain their grace, other’s wither and fade away, yet still there is beauty, for when they live, we so enjoyed all they provided. In the brand new light of a sunny day, we know that with today’s change, it will be fleeting, for tomorrow, the cycle begins again.

Today this house still stands, but soon the new owner is going to rebuild, and what I saw today, will never be again.

My memory will be of the aging couple who lived here when we moved in next door. I am sure they had to adjust to our totally revamping their previous neighbours home and garden. Now many years later, it is our turn to adjust. The new owner is a developer, and where once stood a single family home, will be a multiple structure. Infill.
