The Friday Five Good Things

Five good things that happened this week.

1.  I'm enjoying the blue, gazing globe as an addition to the Zensical garden

2.  The Eldest made a delicious mushroom pilaf for Sunday dinner.

3. With the help of Val and her bird books,  I was able to identify the new bird that showed up at the feeder. A Ruby Throated Grosbeak

4. The Young One arrived home safe and sound after spending the week in Ohio and Colorado with her Young Man and his family.

5.  Enjoyed a quiet birthday watched Netflix, took a loooong nap, ate popsicles.

 How was your week?

Throwback Thursday

We interupt Throwback Thursday - The Notebooks for this bit of nonsense.

I'm 61 and I have just realized I still have so many unanswered questions! 

I never found out who let the dogs out... the way to get to Sesame Street... why Dora doesn't just use Google Maps... why we don't ever see the headline "Psychic Wins Lottery"... why women can't put on mascara with their mouth closed... why "abbreviated" is such a long word... why lemon juice is made with artificial flavor yet dish-washing liquid is made with real lemons... why they sterilize the needle for lethal injections... and, why do you have to "put your two cents in" but it's only a "penny for your thoughts" where's that extra penny going to... why does The Alphabet Song and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star have the same tune... why did you just try to sing those two previous songs... and just what is Victoria's secret? 

Do you really think I am this witty ?? ... I actually stole this from a friend who stole it from a friend of her brother's girlfriend's Uncle's cousin's, baby mamma's Doctor...Now it is your turn to steal it from me... lol Enjoy the rest of your day! 😉😂👌 xx p.s. copy and paste and don't forget to change your age! Hahahahahahahaha, needed a laugh today.

Just a little fun to celebrate my birthday.

Wordless Wednesday

Creative Drill

Thought this looked interesting. Will give this a try later today.

Gazing Globe

Slowly, the Zensical garden is taking shape. Just when I was beginning to think the garden was more Zen (not necessarily a bad thing) than whimsical, Himself gave me an early birthday present. It's a gazing globe that sits in a holder suspended from a garden hook. The globe is blue (my favorite color) with a moon face and stars (a recurring dream theme I have) etched on it.  In certain light, the globe looks like it's floating. Perfect!
