My sister, Sid,
was here for a couple of days.
It was great spending time together,
which we don't do
as often as
we should.
We don't live
that far apart
but life has a way
- of getting in the way -
of the important things.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A while back
we took a ride
on some country roads
and I haven't shared
the pictures
with you...
It's always nice
to get away for awhile,
even though
it might not be far.
Sometimes
the grass is greener
on the other side.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Every afternoon,
around 2:00,
this is the scene at the Cottage..
It is dinnertime for Kai,
or at least he thinks it is,
but the actual time is
more around
3:30 or 4:00.
He starts out on the floor,
intently staring
at the Captain...
..then he is up on the chair,
intently staring at the Captain.
Before long
I guess his head starts
feeling too heavy
to keep the act up
so...
He resorts to
the arm of the chair
to keep his head up
so he can continue
to stare.
When all else fails
he gives up graciously
and entertains himself with a toy,
and this seems to work
for awhile
but...
...not for long,
and this time
he's serious!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You probably can tell
that I am grasping at straws
for something interesting
to write about today...
but that's OK...
sometimes
you just have to give your mind
a rest
and let slow and steady
be your guide.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I can tell you
for sure
that I have discovered
a new (for me) author.
Her name is Santa Montefiore.
She has written a few books
and I have just finished
"The French Gardener".
It is the type of story
that I enjoy,
incorporating
England, France, cottages, gardens,
families and love.
I have just started
"Secrets of the Lighthouse"
and it seems
that I will love this one
just as much.
Hope you all are having
a wonderful week
and thank you so much
for stopping by
for a visit
when you have the time.
...Judy...
Slow and steady
and a full tummy!
