You Can Always Stay Inside and Worry— Wednesday, 13, 2024

Or you can step outside and become part of the earth

The sky, the sun, the moon, and stars

Everything is so timeless and wonderful—it’s hard to stay inside and worry.

The Wind’s Indifference to Us —Tuesday, March 12, 2024

The wind is indifferent to us—you and me

But it gifts the world with energy and life

I love trying to capture the leaves

As they lift up and dance with the wind

Wind— so indifferent to you and I, but a huge delight for the earth and the leaves.

They are actually dancing with joy—the best cure for anyone anxieties!

From my world to your heart,

Linda

On a Very Windy Day—- Monday, March 11, 2024

We went for a ride, listened to the music of the motor and tires, and hummed along with them.

The Last Full Week of Winter — Sunday, March 10, 2024

The ground is perfect right now (for plowing)

Rich, dark, with just the right amount of moisture in it to make soft crumbly soil, later on.

Spring is in the air —I saw two Robins Saturday, a wee Western Meadowlark singing on the fence post, and a tiny flock of 4 bluebirds flying along the ditch bank.

Spring is starting to SPRING FORTH!  YAY!  New Beginnings! A reason to go outside and experience JOY!

The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai on Friday—-A Little of This and a Little of That, Friday, March 8, 2024

Mom and Dad have been working to clean up that

HUGE branch that fell in the yard

TLC and I helped

TLC said let’s play over here…that way we are out of the way.

After a bazillion hours, it was time to go in

TLC beat me to the house—he went in with Dad

I had to wait for Mom

HURRY MOM!

Finally!  She got there!

Sometimes My Throat Catches — Thursday, March 7, 2024

When I see the fleeting beauty of sun-colored clouds or the golden light of the morning or evening sun

When the golden sunlight picks up the Canada Geese or the Sandhill Cranes wings flash through the clouds or the colors of their feathers as they feed in the fields

As the sun sets ever so gradually, yet swiftly, It feels like the day only lasts for a short time, then winks out to begin again the next day.

From my world to your heart,

HUGE WIND! and a Limb Came Down — Tuesday, March 5, 2024

Saturday was a mess of a day—40 to 60 mph wind gusts…then around 4:50 p.m. (the house camera caught a giant limb breaking off the very old Cottonwood tree)

A huge limb came crashing down—thankfully not on the house, or the carport —  we were home when it happened.  It was a tad scary, to say the least.

Sunday we woke up to a skiff of snow/ice and that big branch.

Aw, life—you get to thinking you are caught up on the big jobs   —   when you get to have another one! 🙂

LaVerne—-Monday , March 4, 2024

Birds!!! and LaVerne!   She doesn’t seem to mind them at all.  They can even land on her back.

What a wonderful mule she is!

The Future is Getting Shorter and Shorter as I Age—Sunday , March 3, 2024

The endless opportunity throughout each era of our ages is diminishing, for me.

So until that end time comes…I am going to enjoy each and every moment of each and every day with in all the years left!!  (Yes! I am planning on MORE years 🙂 )
