Reminiscing....

I don't have a lot of words today.

I've been feeling sad about a few things and today, I felt happy looking back through little photo collections on my computer. This one made me smile. It was from Mother's Day this year.

That was a really good day.

Catching Up!

This was such a lovely morning. I was photographing the light and how it reflected off my favorite "Anthro mug" and the pink in the vintage thrift store vase and the daisies and just generally drinking it all in when my big, marshmallow cat, Jitter, arrived on scene. He loves flowers! Really! Seeing the fresh daisies from the garden must've been just too much for him to resist. First he sniffed them, then he licked them. I knew eating them came next. I snapped a picture of him before he made brunch of them. I really love how all the colors pop.

It's been hot the past couple of days. Uncomfortably hot. I have a friend who lives in Arizona who just laughs at me when I whine about the heat. One hundred fifteen degrees is not uncommon at her house. But! I know she wouldn't be very comfortable in our 20-degree winters! Haha! I love you, Nettie!

Another shot of the fresh daisies. I have to say: They just aren't as spectacular as they were last summer. We had a bad storm on the fourth of July and the hail really beat them up. Poor things......

Boundaries

boundary |ˈbound(ə)rē|noun ( pl. -ries)a line that marks the limits of an area; a dividing line : • (often boundaries) figurative a limit of a subject or sphere of activity: a community without class or political boundaries.
Boundaries tell each person what to expect and what is expected. By having boundaries, you still have responsibilities to at least communicate and take care of your issues. The silent treatment is NOT a boundary. The silent treatment is actually a form of emotional abuse.
Setting limits or boundaries does not give license to avoid the issue at hand.

Colorado Skies

The sky had so much character the night Amanda drove so I could capture images.
