What Happened to July?

Hello, yes it’s been awhile.

I have been up to my usual shenanigans.  (Did I spell that right?)

I have some picture post drafts that I never paired with words, to share this upcoming week.  I no longer believe in catching up with social stuff or posts or blogs.   I think the way to get more behind is to try to catch up.  So for now, I deal with incoming and I am pleasantly surprised when something I missed comes my way.

What am I doing?   I have two weeks until school starts, third semester photography.   I went easy on myself because there is much going on, a 5th grandchild, and just the holidays.

I am reading The Hobbit.  It is lovely.
I discovered pour over coffee.
I spent a lot of time and miles on mountain trails this summer.  I am making soap and beading a little bit.

I’ve been writhing poetry, but I have been writing it in my head.  I need to remind myself to stop and jot it down when the good stuff is present, otherwise it’s all in the clouds, And not the “i” one.
Favorite pictures and good times recently.   Have a beautiful week.     I heard or read recently that the only thing stronger than fear is Hope.   So I am inviting hope into my life abundantly.
