A blog category of pics I’ve taken of HR (Hubby Robert) and … well, just about anything.
Robert and … the world.

This huge globe, an old, iconic landmark in Savannah, is getting a redo as a part of a new Starbucks.

So today I reached this milestone in my meditation practice …


Shouldn’t I be a guru or something?

So why do I still feel like such a novice?
Marveling at the beauty, often hidden, to be found when we cast our gaze from the sidewalk.






What marvels are in your line of sight this day?


HR and I drove over to Tybee Island, aka Savannah Beach, (twenty minutes away) for a morning beach walk, actually our first one in 2023.
Robert parked the car near the pier, while looking all cool and beach hip.

(I stood in the shade and daydreamed while he did that parking app thingy, which I don’t quite understand.)

After parking my sandals in the sand, we walked toward the Atlantic.
(FYI: HR does not like to go barefoot on the beach. He doesn’t like to feel those bad little tiny broken shells on his feet.)
(FYI 2: Sometimes you just have to put up with all the quirks in a relationship.)




Here’s Robert and a bird.

And here’s a short documentary titled Cold Feet, produced and directed by HR, starring me.

Terrific morning!

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.
1. White roses.

2. The excitement when grandson Gabriel’s junior high basketball team wins their region championship this week.



3. The incredible beauty of very late winter in Savannah. (It’s still about a month until the official beginning of spring.)







4. The sensation of Touch. What a joy. I thought of this today when I pulled out a thick beach towel from our dryer. Oh my goodness.
5. This incredibly delicious chocolate croissant from a brand new and very cool bakery near us, Sweet Patricia’s. http://www.sweetpatricias.com


May your weekend ahead be delicious.
Today. 1:37 this afternoon.

ST. PAUL:

Seriously?
Walking along Bay Street near our place here in downtown Savannah, HR and I caught sight of a little green oval tucked into a planter

We walked closer.

And the universe spoke to us.

YOU ARE ENOUGH.
A beautifully encouraging message arriving at the perfect time.
I received its truth.
I hope you do too.
I’m thinking of my rambunctious grandchildren right now, especially when they were around four or five years old. I’m minding my own business, sitting in the waiting room at my dermatologist for my yearly checkup. A tad nervous.
An obviously frazzled mother is also here with her little son and daughter.
The little fellow speaks up/SCREAMS UP every few seconds.
“Mommy needs to poo poo, don’t you mommy?”
“I need to poo poo, don’t you mommy?”
To the cute and quiet little sister: “You are a poo poo.”
The mother tries to rein him in: “There are other people here. And they don’t want to hear you.”
(From my perspective she was wrong. I am all ears.)
The little fellow: “They all just need to poo poo.”

I inwardly cackled as I was called back to see the doc.
As I was waiting in the examination room, I decided to Google the “kid fascination with poop thing.”
Did you know there are books written on this subject?!

And there’s research being done on it?!

And programs to deal with it?!

My perspective: Don’t let them be cruel or obnoxious, but Let Kids be Kids.
