Shhh … Silent Sunday. 6/9/24
And at home …
Five Friday Happy Bringers 5/31/24
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.
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.
5. Good advice for National Mental Health Awareness month.
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.
My Saturday Evening Post: 5/11/24 “Walking”
One of the joys of living in downtown historic district Savannah is that the walks NEVER get old. And are ongoingly (Is that a word?) beautiful.
The other day, Robert had a chiropractor appointment nearby, so I went with him, but then took the opportunity to walk around that particular little neighborhood.
Here’s a sampling of what I saw.
My favorite house I came across:
And look at its side yard!
And here’s a little place, still with a bit of character.
Okay, HR’s finished. Gotta go.
Angeling
This morning we picked up breakfast sandwiches and coffee and headed over to Savannah’s beautiful Bonaventure Cemetery for a forenoon (Isn’t that a cool word?) picnic.
Walking afterwards, we came across her …
“What’s going on here?” I quietly asked.
(I had to repeat my question several times before she answered me.)
I had to lean in to hear her.
“Angeling is hard work.”
I simply nodded and motioned for Robert to soundlessly move along.
Five Friday Happy Bringers (a little late) 4/27/24
My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.
I have been a bit lax with blog posts for a week or so. Dealing with a few issues.
But here are some Happy Bringers (a day late) :
1. This beautiful old, OLD live oak tree near us here in Historic District Savannah. It may be gnarled and off-balance a bit (hmmm, so am I), but it is magnificent in its glorious longevity.
2. HR, with his shiny pate, working on our sidewalk plants.
3. My Cold Scallop Salad for dinner tonight.
4. Placing one foot in front of the other in life.
5. Realizing that sometimes we have to get closer to see simple and natural beauty.
May you see some beauty this weekend!
Monday Moaning or Monday Marveling? 4/15/24 “Spring Onion”
Marveling!
One of the joys of warmer weather here in Savannah is the advent of the Spring Onion.
I love them!
One-Word Wednesday: 4/10/24
“Picnic”
Today, Robert, ex-wife Donna and I had a lovely picnic along the banks of the beautiful Wilmington River here in Savannah.
Delicious Family Joy
