Time is marching on, even though we’re only in the second week of the year. The flowers that my Babe got me have mostly died and been thrown away, but the roses dried nicely. I’ve put them in a little vase to keep for as long as they last.
It’s comforting to know that beauty continues even when the colour has faded and age starts to creep in.
What was once fresh and new becomes velvet. Softer. Gentler. And perhaps longer lasting…
Still spending a fair proportion of my day in bed, coughing… it’s over three weeks now 😦 No doctors’ appointments available till late next week.
There comes a time (and I can’t believe I’m saying this…) when reading starts to get a little same-y. Hopefully that won’t last long… but in the meantime, here’s some roses!
😀
I’ve also been whiling away some time on YouTube, with songs old and new.
In my dreams, I’m an amazing dancer. Strong, agile – flowing gowns and graceful poses. This has never been my reality.
Nevertheless, I can enjoy seeing other people dancing, even if my bones ache just watching…
This is probably more my style…
Definitely better footwear!
Keep on dancing ❤
Even if it's only in your dreams…
It’s been a long day…
… and I haven’t been here in ages..
Just popping in 😀 while I have the chance – hopefully we’ll soon have our internet sorted…
I don’t have anything amazing to say, so I thought I’d just do a pinterest post about roses.
Enjoy!

There’s a lady at church who gives out flowers… lovely bunches of mixed flowers, to people having birthdays, or random others 😀 Yesterday I passed by the bucket filled with colour, and thought fleetingly that it would be lovely to take some home…
Five minutes later, there was a tap on my shoulder, and suddenly – flowers!
The deep red roses smell beautiful 😀 ,
and gerberas are so cheerful…
Then my littlest bean went visiting for the afternoon, and another friend gave him some sprigs of lavender to take home for me!
I feel blessed 😀
… and surrounded by colour and perfume…
a bit of creativity, a bit of eco consciousness, a bit of inspiration.... hopefully not a lot of pompousness and blathering :D
i'm not entirely sure what's going on here... let's travel along and see...
