This was the view the other morning.

I love a foggy morning and this one was spectacular.

We keeping adding an extra day to the Christmas tree’s time with us. I packed away all of the ornaments. It’s very dry, but there’s very little needle drop and we need to it stay a while longer. I mean, who cares, right? We’re happy with it.

And the over 60 year old snake plant is blooming. It didn’t bloom last year, but I had pruned some older shoots and it needed time to recover. The flowers (there are two shoots) came up in the midst of the newer growth.
Hey, Mom and Dad, your baby is awfully pretty. I miss you.
Today, I’m going to sort out the closet in the office/studio. Wish me luck!
Stay safe.
Happy Wednesday.


We had fog a couple of days ago….eerie and dangerous, but still beautiful. Yesterday brought 50’s, sunshine and shorts for those that dared. Today…howling winds ugh. Almost afraid to look at tomorrow’s forecast lol.
I love that your senseveria blooms. Whatever you are doing….don’t stop. Enjoy your day! ;)
Thank you, Donnamae!
Stay safe.
Keep enjoying your tree. It looks very pretty with just the lights. We still have our tree up, still decorated. Not in any hurry to take it down. We water it regularly and few needles have dropped. Your “fog” picture is very striking and atmospheric. Hugs, Elaine
We aren’t even watering ours because it reached the point where it was no longer absorbing water.
Still very little needle drop.
Stay safe, Elaine.
happy for you to have the tree and lights, that fog, that view, those blooms, each other … all wonderful!
feeling better here. not 100% yet, but enough that the “positive covid” line this morning was faint, and i went for a nice slow walk outside. only a mile, but it felt so good to be upright and especially outdoors in that 27-degree weather. :)
hope you, don and everyone else are well and safe and stay that way.

Oh good! It must have felt great to get a walk in.
Stay safe, Kathy.
it did; thanks! :)
and planning to walk a bit longer tomorrow and more every day to build up my strength and energy again, and enjoy being outdoors in nature. that will feel good.
hope you are having a nice night.

I, too, love a foggy morning. Some mornings there are only wisps to be seen in our little cove in the southern Appalachians. Other mornings the hill across the way is invisible.
This morning I read “We need all the beauty, all the small joys that are possible, to balance out the news . . . ” Hooray for lights on a holiday tree in the middle of January!
Thank you so much, Judith.
Stay safe.
All good luck on the closet. I have so much to do in mine I don’t know where to begin!
I’m a big fan of tree and lights till you just can’t stand it anymore (or it becomes a trunk with a lot of bare branches!) It’s pretty with just the lights!
Have a productive day. It’s snowing here and icy — hopefully not headed your way!
I didn’t get around to the closet today. Tomorrow instead!
Stay safe, Jeanie.
I like the foll you love created. I really like those boots, are they leather?
Im so used to staying up too late. Ive been looking at blythe dolls. There are four girls in my family. So I feel I need a fourth blythe doll.
Gosh, im tired. I have a busy full day today. Gotta sleep.
I took down our tree tonight.
Yes, the boots are leather. I wish I had a pair!
Stay safe, Irene.
Wow, I didn’t even know the snake plant flowered! That’s fantastic.
Yes. They do, but it seems that not every plant flowers. All I know is that this very old snake plant does.
Stay safe, Leslie.
