A Perfect Combination

A cozy, yak-down sweater and well fed fire were not a good combination this afternoon, but fresh air and a hot drink were perfect.

Flowers of Quiet Happiness

"...but if the path set before her feet was to be narrow she knew that flowers of quiet happiness would bloom along it."

-Lucy Maud Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables -

Sunset Light

Yesterday many aunts and uncles and a few friends emptied our basement of the majority of its contents in preparation for mold remediation (date pending). We are feeling blessed, though the mold sensitive ones of us are experiencing varied levels of ill from disturbed micotoxins. One of us is in extreme levels of pain. Could you lift her up in your prayers?

Today after lounging in my bed after a luxuriously long afternoon nap, I enjoyed a couple moments of crisp but remarkably warm November air and stunning sunset light.

And leaves that  refuse to give up the ghost.
