Hello and happy Tuesday.  This little blue bird is helping me feel happy today.  I really enjoy being outside and capturing special moments of nature.  Remembering these special moments keeps me calm when the work days are so hectic.  

I hope you had a nice, calm Tuesday.  Thank you for looking.  See you tomorrow.

Tuesday Thoughts

Happy Tuesday. Is it really Tuesday?  I feel like I've worked so hard and so long already this week that it must be Thursday.  At least Wednesday.  But, it is Tuesday.  Oh well, my head must be in the clouds.  And so, why not put a photo of the clouds on the blog?  Well, there's no fancy face in them, no animal faces - they're just fluffy clouds, where you can look into them mindlessly and lose yourself for a while.   It's like meditation!  Yes, that's it - meditation.  So the next time you need a break; need to clear your mind; need to just relax and get away from everything, just look to the clouds and lose yourself.

I hope you had a terrific Tuesday.  Thanks for looking.  See you tomorrow.

Sunday's Reflections

Hello Sunday!  What a great day to reflect.  What a great day to go fishing.  What a great day to do both of them at the Little River in North Carolina.  This is a wonderful place for fishing, kayaking, visiting, reflecting, looking at reflections..... etc.  This is where you come to get away from all the noise of the way life is today - the cell phones, the demands on your time, all the work you need to do around the house.  This is the calm you need, I need, we all need once in a while.  Well, I admit, I need this kind of calm more  often than "once in a while". 

I hope you had a great Sunday.  I thank you for taking the time to look at my reflecting calm.  See you tomorrow.

Tuesday's Calm Night

Hello Tuesday friends.  Today I thought I'd do something a little different.  You see, in my home, I have this nightlight in my bathroom.  Whenever I get up during the night to sneak to the bathroom, as I slowly open the door I see this "fan" on light.  Any further opening and my "fan" is gone, replaced by a larger light.  I have wanted to make a photo of this for some time, but it was tricky not to set off the motion sensor of the night light.  Finally, success.  I'm pretty pleased with this - it's very calming to me and I enjoy gazing at it.  But then, I started playing with it in Picasa and, well, I like that too.  Look further and you'll see if you like it, too.

I hope you had a great Tuesday. And now, you've got two for Tuesday from me.  Thanks for looking.  See you tomorrow.

Good Morning Monday

Say goodbye to the weekend and hello to Monday!  No matter what the outside looks like, it is going to be a great day.  Yes, Mondays bring an element of wonder - I wonder what's going to happen at work; I wonder if it will be busy; too busy; if everyone will show up; if I'm going to make it through today.......

As you walk that Monday pathway just remember, this too shall pass and Monday will be over in a flash.  And once this Monday is gone, you won't ever have it again.  So, make the best of your Monday.  Go through your day with a sunny heart and smile on your face and no matter what happens throughout the day stay calm.  On this Monday, let everyone else wonder what you were up to on the weekend that made you so happy today!!

Have a great Monday.  Thanks for looking.  See you tomorrow.
