What Grounds Me

Early in the morning ...

When the birds are chirping...

And the world is still fairly quiet ...

And the sun is just barely coming up . . .

I like to sit.

And ponder.

And meditate.

It grounds me.

Lately, I love to sit in this 

cozy corner of my yard.

On the table.

Don't worry, it's a heavy duty granite table 

that can hold my weight! 

Besides, it's hard to sit cross legged / meditation style

in a patio chair!

What grounds you?

The Short Lilac Season

Mmm! 

They smell divine! 

I looked out the window last week while I was sick

and realized the lilacs were blooming.

I had to go pick a few.

Today I went out to pick a few more

and it looks as if they are just about finished for the season.

My purple bush has already wrapped up.

My white bush looks as if it is about to also.

That was a short lilac season!

Until next year my dear sweet lilacs . . .
