Five Friday Happy Bringers 8/2/24

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. Swimming grandchildren.

2. Fresh summer field peas! Oh my GOODness.

3. The prickly beauty of Red Roses.

4. Air conditioning. (That really should be Number One. )

5. “My” Square, Washington Square, near us— which is a sort of ward/neighborhood outdoor living room. (Savannah‘s historic district has 22 beautiful squares.)

See HR? Photo snapping, as usual.

May you have a picture perfect weekend ahead!

(Or at least a little rest.)

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. Pretty purple gladiolas.

2. Preparing the Perfect Roast Chicken (at least according to Ina Garten.)

With a little help from Robert and his gay watch band …

It was quite the hit!

3. The occasional afternoon nap. What a treat.

4. Crusty, buttery bread.

5. Celebrating HR’s birthday with pizza and Donna.

May you have cause to celebrate this weekend.

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. Attending The Annual Memorial Day Garden Party at friends Pat and Mary Prokops’s lovely Savannah home. Pat is retired now but was a longtime popular meteorologist on a local Savannah station.

Garden host Pat and HR

2. Driving up to Atlanta for a Braves game.

And getting famous ….

3. The blessing/luxury of having a car. Everybody doesn’t.

4. Fresh vegetables from our favorite Savannah produce stand.

May you have a Wonderfully Healthy Weekend ahead!

Monday Moaning or Monday Marveling? 5/20/24 “Hello Hy”

MARVELING!

The incredibly aromatic blossoms of Jasmine are beginning to say their goodbyes here in historic district Savannah.

I will miss them sorely, although their stalwart greenery will stay to keep guard.

Awakening me from my sadness and reminding me that all is not forlorn, along comes Hydrangea, seemingly popping up everywhere I walk, especially this cool Monday morning.
