Faroes and Nfld

Faroe islands ( The Faroe Islands is a self-governing archipelago, part of the Kingdom of Denmark.) on the left .. Newfoundland (Canada) on the right – two very different places with beautiful inspiring escapes.

One of the observations I’ve had with this move, is that my physical location has made a difference for me. I have had to adjust to underground parking, elevators and mechanical noises that were not part of my daily existence .. a constant meeting of “strangers” in close proximity… but when I enter my apartment, I am “home”. The cats and I have had to adjust to having a smaller floorplan than we did living in a house with three stories….. I certainly am now privy to how they spend their nights !!!!

I spent most of yesterday doing another batch of cards.

Interesting how in this new space, I have found inspiration to get back to being creative with my “invenotry”.. I feel lighter, less burdened. Yet if you had asked me before the move if I felt ” burdened” I would have immediately replied. NO. A good example of walking around with my head in the sand, !

It is interesting because it is different

Even if someone totally disagrees with you or does things differently, you may learn something from them. Avoid getting trapped in the mindset “this is the way it has to be ” and free your mind to consider other possibilities.

Wontons

Freshly made wontons, brought home and made a wonderful soup. on the left, stock is being prepared with bone broth, mushrooms, onion, garlic, ginger, and fresh cut sweet onion, with corn cut from the cob. I used part of the wontons for lunch, then the last of the wontons I made another soup for dinner.

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

Whenever you are undertaking a huge task, you may encounter resistance. Don’t give up, and let your strong resolve carry you to completion (PL2014.17)

Enjoy your day everyone.

Again, thank you all for you good wishes … I appreciate each and everyone of you. Always…

PS. NO I don’t want to count backwards. I love my life. I am very blessed…

PL Precept #20 Live maintaining equilibrium between mind and matter.

Thursday

Everywhere there is a door, are you tempted to go in? With the reflective mood of the last while, I wandered down the memory lanes this morning, and picked buildings with a similar appeal. Each building has a different purpose, or has been standing for sometime. Each tells a story. None are mine. Will I find what I am looking for? Who knows. But then.. am I even looking… or am I simply remembering when time was….
