August Break-Day 10 DRINK?

DRINK! DRANK! DRUNK! What is your favorite beverage? You can guess by the photos that mine is wine!
Wine is the nectar of the gods--as it has been stated!  Maybe, I like it because of the glassware--

maybe, I like it because you can enjoy it on a warm afternoon as you soak up the envirnoment--

Maybe, I like it because of the variety--

But, most of all, I like it because it is shared with someone you love!

August Break==Day 9 Pieces of Life

Ever feel like your life is in pieces?  Here a piece, there a piece, everywhere a piece!  And are there times when you wonder when all those pieces will fit together in one happy place?
 
It's like a patchwork quilt--all those tiny little fragments scattered around the room.  But, once sewn in a reasonable pattern, you create one marvelous creation!

And there are those days filled with chaos and hectic routines 
But, upon closer inspection, we can visualize how we break down each section--make it work--just bite off one section at a time. 
Oh My!  what problems surmount daily--how do we fit everything into one nice package?

It is the bigger picture of our life--all those little pieces make us what we are--it can overcome or we can conquer.   how will the pieces of your life fit together?

August Break=Day 8 SELFIES!

Oh My! How we like that word!  Why?  Because it is Our person--ME, MYSELF and I!  Oh!  How we like ourselves so much that we'll use the camera to take our photo anywhere or any time. 

The word "SELFIE" is relatively new to the dictionary--SELFIE can be used in a game of Scrabble!  There is nothing formal about a SELFIE--It's just you and your hand held camera!  Let's get along with this and upload my SELFIE



 
 
How will you place yourself into a SELFIE today?

August Break=Day 6 REFLECTION!

August Day 6 brings us to "REFLECTION"--When this word popped up for today's theme, my mind swirled with various thoughts and images. This word can be intangible.   
Can we not see 'reflections' in the water?  
 
 
Can we not see a 'reflection' of ourselves in nature? 
 
  • Our eyes see different 'reflections' than our souls. 
  • We can reflect on movement;
  • we can reflect on past years;
  • we can reflect or give consideration to a thought;
  • we can reflect as we meditate;
  • we can reflect on something said in anger.
 
How will you reflect today?

August Break=Three

This is day five (5) of August Break.  Our theme for the day is THREE!  Now, what do you think when you hear THREE?


  • First thought that comes into my head--"Baa Black Sheep, do you have any wool?  Yes sir,
  • yes sir, THREE bags full!"  and as a fiber person, I certainly have more than three bags full! 
  • Here are just three of my bags filled with knitting projects!

Its name is derived from the Orange the fruit.  Orange is commonly associated with amusement, the unconventional, extroverts, fire, activity, danger, taste and aroma and Autumn season!
