Day Two Hundred Thirty Two 2013

Terrific Tuesday

A day without bubbles is a day without joy.

Grandson Knox lulled to sleep in his swing, holding a bubble wand that is his favorite color

A day without rain … would be a shock at this point

Grandson Elijah insisted that watching SpongeBob would not be a distraction while doing his math homework. He was wrong. Thank goodness for erasers.

Granddaughter Shelby gave her homework the raspberries ~ might be more fun if it was on her iPad

This evening, somebody [Neil] mentioned doughnuts, and we were all over it at Ralph’s. Knox knows what he wants. That one!

The full moon was gorgeous tonight hanging there in the clouds over West Side. Cell phone camera can do only so much ~

Just dump me in the box and I’ll eat my way out

Mm mm……it’s that good! Doughnuts help make a Tuesday even more terrific. Hope yours was, too!

Day One Hundred Sixty Two 2012

Unexpected intrusions of beauty. This is what life is. ~Saul Bellow
The rain was beautiful today because we need it and I forgot to water my potted plants yesterday.

RANDOMNESS

Day Two Hundred Eighty Six 2011

 "October is a symphony of permanence and change."

Day Two Hundred Eighty Four 2011

Change is a measure of time and, in the autumn, time seems speeded up. What was is not and never again will be; what is is change.

Day Two Hundred Eleven 2011

We had what you call a gully washer around lunch time today, not to mention some pretty fierce lightning and thunder, which was cracking over my head while I was out on my back porch, taking this picture of the rain water gushing out the gutter. The rain is welcome right now. I know others need it badly, too. Hope they get some soon.

Day Thirty Two 2011

It's just me, standing in the rain and wind, waiting for grand daughter Shelby to walk home from school this afternoon. A gratuitous self-portrait. I'm sure anyone passing by me who happened to notice me taking a picture of myself probably thought I was weird or something. What can I say? They would be right.

Day One Hundred Twenty Three

The only word to describe this day is 'wet'! Everyone is already tired of the rain. I hope this summer we're not all saying, 'wish it would rain!'
