Monday Mood: Adjusting Focus
Two days after we landed, boxes and all, I fell ill with the flu. Friends and family unpacked while I slept my way through feverish chills and sweats and all the other fun things that come with this bug.
Yesterday, I regained a sense of normalcy, and could finally focus on my new surroundings. Of course, that called for a few pics to get my bearings.
Loving the new view.
Monday Mood: focused
With the house sold, and our new abode decided upon, I can finally focus on the task ahead of me. One step at a time, moving forward.

Monday Mood: Tickled Pink
It was an expression my mom used when something pleased her. Waking up to these unexpected visitors in our garden had just that effect on me.
Choose Love
Talks of takeovers
and takedowns –
deliberate misdirection
My mind is a tangle
my heart stripped raw
Us vs them a mantra
Choking on my own bile
darkness closing in –
I turn to so called heaven
Accusations on iced tongue
desperation pointing fingers
the sullen clouds an echo
Even in this stormy state
light, like fire challenges
Wake up! Wake up!
There in the twilight
beneath lambent skies
my resolve melts
How, from this perspective
can I contemplate hatred?
Love a more noble alternative

Monday Mood: pensive
Like this Carolina Wren, I’m fixing my gaze on the unknown, senses alert. Temperatures are rising, we’re almost half way through July, and I’m feeling my determination strengthen. What change is on the horizon?
I’ll be over here pondering.
Monday Mood: Reflective
The stillness of a summer’s day, a good time to reflect.
