Hello, hello February!
Tomorrow's Groundhog Day.
Will he or won't he see that shadow?
I've always thought it was a fun little tradition -- whether or not it's a real-deal, matters not. Just a little something twinkly to think of on February 2nd.
Hope you enjoy the read. I'm happy that you're here.

5 FOR FRIDAY | JANUARY 27
Hello!
Hope your world is going well. Mine is just dandy.
I've spoken with a couple friends who actually made New Year's resolutions and ... * sigh * ... the resolutions aren't sticking for one reason or another.
I, personally, walked away from doing the whole New Year's resolution thing quite a while back. I'm just not good at keeping them.
Always seemed like a good idea at the time. But then I had to admit that I failed. So I don't set myself up for it anymore. Ha! You?
Pictures below
#1 Shadow play wave all bundled up on my morning walk
#2 Heart Art of wire and beads I made with a pair of pliers and hands molding/shaping. Fun little afternoon project.
#3 Graffiti art on train cars as I wait at the tracks for them to pass. I know the artists shouldn't be doing it - but for whatever reason, I am intrigued. Always makes me wonder where the art happened. How far away? Such huge pieces created with a couple of spray cans of paint.

Greetings - Hope your week is swell. January's moving so fast, and the temperatures have been crazy warm, I feel like I'm getting a little Spring fever.
Gotta keep reminding myself that February is traditionally one of the coldest month's here in my neck of the world.
Spring will come quick enough. In the mean time, I can look through catalogs for seeds and magazines for cool ideas and make garden plans (large + small + containers) with pen and paper. That's my plan. How about you?
Thanks for being here!

#1
So this giant, I mean giant, tree fell into the yard last September. An arborist friend told me it probably weighed 20 tons. Monster, beautiful tree. We had dubbed it Sleepy Hollow over the years for no specific reason. Just seemed an appropriate name for such a magnificent piece of nature.
My fabulous neighbors Pete and Donna, their daughter, Karen, and Craig, son-in-law, jumped on their fastest white horses (toting chainsaws) and zoomed over here and we all totally cleaned up that fallen tree. As in all day long!

WEDNESDAY READER | JANUARY 18
Hello - hello! How's the week going so far? We have had crazy temperatures here in the past couple of weeks - 40's, 50's and 80's!

Thanks for stopping in for the read today. Grateful. Have a great rest of your week!
