Monday through Friday I get dressed, make coffee and go to work.
Saturday and Sunday… see Monday through Friday. 😉
Robed and dressed are interchangeable words.
A Day In the Life

When Life Gives You Lemons…
Use them!
The weather in this region has been pretty sucky for the last few days as many roads are impassable due to ice. ICE, not snow. Snow is not sucky. I like snow. I can drive in it, heck I’ll even eat it but what we’ve got is not edible or drivable unless you’re just feeling wild and crazy. I must be getting old because I don’t feel so wild and crazy.
Not too long ago I would have gleefully tested my sliding skills on foot or behind the wheel and laughed at any mishap. Now I dare not chance it and worry about the kids making it home safely. Back in the day a power outage was an adventure; nowadays I fear the grandchildren won’t be warm enough…
🙂 Well the kids are nestled in their homes all fine and dandy [sigh] and their children are ‘snug as a bug in a rug’ so I can go about enjoying life’s lemons…
I’ll start with savoring Santa’s lemon apples with caramel dipping sauce. YUM!
We’ll turn the Christmas music on and decorate the tree
And sing along Peanuts roasting on a cast iron stove…
And maybe I’ll tell Santa what a good boy he has been….

Too Numerous To Mention
Not Quite Macabre
A Horse With No Name
Okay it’s actually a herd and they probably have names. And (I know) A Horse With No Name is an odd coupling with my rainy day escapade but that’s how I roll… backwards.

Weekly Photo Challenge (Combining Hues & Horizons)
These photos are recycled from older posts but they will work for the challenge(s): The Hue of You and Horizons.
This is me. These colors are the sum of my parts and they bring me peace. That along with the unfaltering hope that what lies beyond the next horizon will be all I ever dreamed of.

We are what we eat, what we breathe and what we believe. Eat to nourish the body, breathe to soothe the soul and believe the sky is the the limit.

Good Morning
Q: What does your morning look like?
A: My mornings consist of coffee (lots of coffee), a walk and being greeted by the most awesome guard dogs in the world. See how they saved me from that turkey in the background?
Thank you for keeping that vicious turkey at bay
Good morning Morning Glory
Inspired by a change in weather
I wake the flowers up ‘good morning Morning Glory’ and forecast the weather by holding my wet thumb in the air. Sometimes I lick it, sometimes I let one of the dogs do it for me.
Today’s forecast: FABULOUS. It is cloudy and seventy degrees. The wind is up, the temperature is down and there is a real honest to goodness cold front blowing in. 🙂
Gloomy skies are the perfect inspiration for dark stories so I had better get busy before the weather changes. You know the old saying “If you don’t like the weather, wait five minutes and it will change.” “why lick your thumb if someone else will do it for you.”

A Look Inside: Bookfest
This weeks photo challenge correlated fabulously with a post I had planned for My Indie Adventures.
As a few of you may know I attended the East Texas Bookfest this past Saturday. What you may not know is that it was my first. Of course I marched up in there like an old crow pro because I refuse to be intimidated.
The event started Friday evening with a reception for the authors at the Potpourri House in Tyler. I had a glass of Chardonnay with a little fruit, cheese and artichoke dip. The chicken and meat balls looked very appealing but I’m pretty sure I would have choked on them so I had another glass of wine when my handler wasn’t looking. 
The dip was delicious by the way.
Saturday morning we arrived on time (yay!!) and within minutes our table was set up.
With all of that out of the way (thank you Kim) I’m like what am I supposed to do now?
What do I do now?
Thank goodness I just happen to have a camera hanging around my neck so I roamed around taking pictures.

Hmm, is that a real interview…
Maybe taking pictures was not exactly what I was supposed to be doing and I probably shouldn’t have let people think I was with the press… Oh well it was another funtastic indie adventure and a chance to see the inside working of a book festival.

Weekly Photo Challenge: FOCUS
FOCUS: What is this weeks photo challenge and a subtle reminder of what I have lost sight of…
I need to get more aggressive, hence the red. I’ll definitely try to keep the anger and frustration in check. 😉
