Waking up slowly
Describe one habit that brings you joy. For many years, many working years, it was get up and get going. Now I can take my time. I meditate. I write my blog. I reader other blogs. I chat with my husband. I drink coffee. Slow and easy. No rush!
Karma
Write about a random act of kindness you’ve done for someone. What goes around comes around. So I try to be kind always. Give an elderly or disabled person my seat. Help someone get something off a shelf in a supermarket. Smile at people. Lend an ear when someone needs to talk. Am I alwaysContinue reading “Karma”
Getting Older but Wiser
How would you describe yourself to someone who can’t see you? I look in the mirror and I can see the wrinkles around my mouth and eyes. Even fine wrinkles on my cheeks. My neck gives my age away. Why does the neck sag so much? But it’s all me. Nothing fake. No Botox. NoContinue reading “Getting Older but Wiser”

Now South Queensferry and North Queensferry can be reached by three bridges. This second photo shows two bridges. The orangeContinue reading “A Little Village Called South Queensferry”
Fly me to the moon
If you won two free plane tickets, where would you go? No really! Is it business class or economy? I hate long hauls in economy so I will assume it’s business class. Right now we are contemplating Japan. So ANA business to Japan would be wonderful. I’m interested in Prague as well so that wouldContinue reading “Fly me to the moon”
A Stop in Invergordon
I woke at 2:45 am and of course, I had to check outside. I stepped out on my balcony to this beautiful view. I was hoping for some northern lights but none to be had. We awoke when our coffee and tea were delivered and afterward headed off the ship. We walked to the InvergordonContinue reading “A Stop in Invergordon”
