A little late, but... Quietly waiting, a colorful surprise hides inside plain green walls #haikusaturday
"A peppermint stick for the brave firefighters,” I thought as a child. #haikusaturday
Devoured tea and TREATS... Just don’t call them “digestives,” or I can not eat. #haikusaturday
Had to miss again last night but happy to wake up to some great book recommendations...thank you! Here are my current kidlit and grown-up lit TBR piles. #kidlitchat
Mushy bananas make my stomach turn, except when they look like this. #Haikusaturday
Out on a long "run," I spy this wooden hero. Don't mind if I do. #HaikuSaturday
Orange weeds in costume, at least make the deer recoil. I am not a fan. #haikusaturday
It recently came to my attention that not everyone knows that snapdragons (my favorites!) actually snap open and close when you gently squeeze the sides. Or, as I always told my kids, "That flower is talking to you!" (Flowers in the video were too damp for primo snapping, but you get the idea.)
Hope your day's outlook is as positive as my weather report! #amwriting #Tuesdaymotivation
Happy new week! I love the summary on my weather app today. If only this described the coexistence of humans! #Mondaymotivation
My weather app has started offering more insightful (and less aggressive?) commentary. Just a few weeks ago, it would have ended abruptly with, "High of 46." And an implied, "Loser."
When all the library holds come in at the same time. 🤩 I #amreading tonight!
Two weeks ago vs. today. Big change. Short time. I think the universe is telling me it’s time to do the thing(s) I’ve been avoiding. We will resume this discussion in 14 days…
Paths without railings may lead to unforeseen joy. Tread carefully, friend. #haikusaturday #hike
The Fairy Forest from my heavy, gilt-edged book, really does exist! #haikusaturday #hike
Neglected again. Your burnt saucy grin dares me- Please try all the hacks. #haikusaturday
Eleven stories down, I spy you all alone and think how, when, why? #haikusaturday
I think there may be a story in every pile of shoes. #kidlit #writer #writingcommunity
Life is weird right now. So, here's a picture of a couple of turkeys that crossed my path this weekend. Good vibes to all!
Giving #haikusaturday a try. For my fellow loungers: Every Saturday, my cushion's indentation correlates to joy.
