Woodpeckers and Ancestors in the Garden
The last time I posted about my garden was here: April A-Z: Garden This isn’t a garden blog but talk of the garden fits here. Some times when I feel like I could float away in all the fears and negativity that can surround any person who is a caretaker, this garden anchors me. Not…
Day One: Coffee Shop
I don’t get out often, being a caretaker. Thankfully, I have created a paradise for myself at home. (OK, my paradise is a MESS right now, but I’m fine with that.) This is my coffee shop. A photo challenge by Cassia Elisabeth.
April A-Z: Garden
My garden is waiting. It greeted the late snow, and the snow again, as a spouse greets in laws to their home. But, the garden is more patient and willing than that. It germinates beneath the soil and sprouts bulbs and already flowers Daffodils. It says: “Hello!” on those decent, just barely decent, weather days. …
The Case of Patches and Miley
I began a post today, a post I’ve been writing for the last hour, that intended to make the world understand the absolute insanity I put up with. It also attempted to purge and cathart, something I still drastically need. But trash talking members of this family is something I have promised myself I wouldn’t…
Sunday Share: That is Some Crazy Caterpillar!
This Sunday Share is from a blog I adore. The poem is just amazing as well. I’ll share it here, but you gotta go check out the whole blog! It is from a blog called: Life Lessons If I Follow the Wandering Poet jdbphoto Who cares if I swim naked in my pool? All other…
Off Topic (Only Kind Of)
To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow. ~ Audrey Hepburn I plant my gardens because I also believe in yesterday. There is something I love to write about, have to write about, especially this time of year. My garden! Although, I like to think of it as our garden. You would think that…
Another Day
Another Day I pull the curtain back to let in diffused autumn sun It’s a new day. And she arose from her bed Despite letting the clock tick past 9:00… Past 9:30… Leaving me hanging on the question: Will today be the day she doesn’t wake? I straighten the bed as I hear her Moving…
How Lovely!
It is really wonderful to have so many new followers to this blog. As you might already know, I call this my labor of love. For two reasons, one because it is a lot of work! I transcribe the passages, edit them, print them, and then spend time with Babu, my grandmother, as she reads…
Mending Fence
Our neighbor next door is the best I could ask for. She is truly lovely. As a bonus, her husband is a police officer, a friendly one, and I feel safe having them next door. She and I always say hello to one another with small check ins. “Hows your grandmother?” She always asks and…
Spare the next one, please.
Here is my response to the weekly photo challenge: Spare. Right under the wire! Prayer to the furry gods: You got a bite of this one, (The first) It’s only fair. You can finish it, too, if you wish. But could you spare the green one next to it?
Babchi’s Garden and Me
Some times when I share passages with Babu we are launched into talking sessions where stories are told, expanded, feature a cast of characters whom are, mostly, very loved, and explore poignant matters even to the extent of the meaning of life. Sometimes she’s pretty quiet and reads to herself, laughs at a few things…
