15/365-2 In the Air

"Blowing In The Wind"

The recorder is a little more portable and much more forgiving when played outside than is the clarinet.   

The creative juices were not flowing today.  I went with outside in the air and in playing the sound is all "in the air."  A desperate attempt, but there you have it.

"An Apple A Day"

So the old adage says, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away."  Nowhere does it say in what form the apple should be consumed.  I'm sure there is at least one apple in a slice of apple pie!

"My Heart Is The Moon"

There is no wind strong enough to blow away your footprints from my heart.

May you rest in peace and rise in glory, my dear friend.

11/365-2 In Good Hands

"Book In Hands"

Today was a beautiful day, nearly 70 degrees.  It would have been a great day to go somewhere and enjoy being outside.  Unfortunately, our daily agenda didn't include any outdoor plans.  My morning began at the dentist getting my teeth cleaned.  Weber and I went out for breakfast afterwards and then I got my hair cut.  Even at that, the chores weren't done.  I had to come home and finish making baptismal stoles for church tomorrow.  Then there was the Christmas tree....

Christmas came and went and I barely noticed it.  Though I remember Christmas day, the Christmas season didn't really exist for me this year.  I need to do some serious soul searching and figure out why that was.  Because of these feelings,  I looked at the Christmas tree with deep esentment today as we pulled the ornaments off and packed everything away for another year.  I kept thinking that I didn't even enjoy the decorations.  And here I am having to pack all of this stuff neatly away.  It was not a happy feeling!

About the time that my pity party had hit a low, my baby showed up somewhat unexpectedly.  What a nice surprise!  She didn't stay too long, but was willing to allow me a few shots while she read her book.  My goal this year is to get at least one shot of each of the girls each month as a POTD.  I am half way there for January!

10/365-2 A Doorway

"Knock, Knock...Who's There?"

Lucky for this one whose favorite thing to do these days is to run in and out and in and out and.... checking on the squirrels in the backyard, there is someone here to answer her when she knocks.
