No time for deep thinking today or even putting my thoughts (such as they are) into words. It’s just another dreary, bleary, depressing day of constant rain, fog and general dullness. Spring is slow in arriving in our area this year. So I’m trying to think happy thoughts of the season by viewing some of my old photos from springs gone by.
Hope they brighten your day as well!

Mama of this empty nest, I’m content to live a quiet, country life with my husband of 40+ years and to view gorgeous sunsets off our own back yard deck. Mama to three adults and Nana to adorable grandchildren, my empty nest fills up again with noise and laughter when they all return 'home'.
A former English teacher, reporter/editor, education director for a non-profit organization, and stay at home mom, I retired after a season of substitute teaching at a private academy. Now I enjoy time spent with my grandchildren and family and writing words that seem to pour out of my soul or wandering around the countryside with my camera.
Foremost, my faith sustains me as I meander through the empty nest stage of life. My favorite scripture is 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18: “Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”

You have a lovely green thumb! That’s one thing we don’t have in common, I can kill just about anything green.

Ha! I only have a green thumb for outdoor plants (and even those are planted by hubby). Indoor things, my thumb is black. I’ve never met an indoor plant yet that hasn’t succumbed to my loving (not) care!
