Marveling!
One of the joys of warmer weather here in Savannah is the advent of the Spring Onion.
I love them!

Monday Moaning or Monday Marveling? 4/1/24 “Hodgepodge”
Marveling this Monday morning, as I scroll through a hodgepodge of photos from our Baltimore trip last week.
NATURE
ART
Even our cutlery at lunch in the Mount Vernon section of Baltimore was sort of artsy.
I believe that if we attend to our lives carefully, we will see much to cause us to pause and MARVEL.
Monday Moaning or Monday Marveling? 3/18/24 “All”
Marveling this morn, thinking back on the church Robert and I walked past on a walk near our Airbnb in the Riverside neighborhood of Jacksonville over the weekend.
It’s Romanesque and Byzantine architecture first caught our eyes. But then the large sign out front sparkled in joyfully inclusive welcome.
Look closer …
Thank you, Riverside. You are a Marvel.
Monday Moaning or Monday Marveling? 3/4/24 “Four”
Moaning a bit this Monday morn, but not unpleasantly.
So on my desk sits this little daily mindfulness calendar.
And on the back of each page is “The Daily Extra.”
Here’s today’s. (A moaningly bad joke.)
But a tad funny.
Monday Moaning or Monday Marveling? 2/26/24 “Exquisite”
Marveling at the Exquisite Beauty I come across on morning walks here in historic district Savannah.
May your Monday Morning be MARVELous.
Monday Moaning or Monday Marveling? 2/5/24 “Winter Blooming!”
Marveling and gaping at Savannah’s mid-winter Camellias …
Monday Moaning or Monday Marveling? 1/22/24 “Sofa Loafing”
Marveling at the warm, comfortable and peaceful simplicity of “morning couching” in our holiday tree jammies.

Monday Moaning or Monday Marveling? 1/15/24 “Flower Power: Carnation”
So HR got me this cool and beautiful book for Christmas.
I love it.
From the intro: “Flowers are incredible. They have the power to calm, heal, and allow us to express our deepest emotions without saying a word. They can boost your mood, reduce stress, and improve well-being.”
“Choosing a flower for its traditional meaning, natural energy, or holistic properties, you can bring the benefits of the natural world into your home or workplace, and into the lives of loved ones.”
My birth flower is the carnation, so when I turned #{£%&@ on January 10, we picked up some pink and white lovelies.
Following the advice of philosopher of contemporary living and favorite author Alexandra Stoddard, we divided the bouquet into smaller arrangements and placed them around the apartment.
What a difference the addition of a few fresh flowers can make!
“Carnations have long been associated with love. Different colors of carnation have various meanings with the overall theme of love: pink carnations are symbolic of pure and romantic love; red ones signify ardent love, and white tell the recipient they are fair and beautiful.”
So the beautiful carnations coronating our little place helped to heal me of the shocked revelation on January 10 that I am now #{£%&@ years old!
