Pink Fluff

 

Pink Fluff.

Our Japanese cherry tree is already losing it's pretty pink petals...

they seemed a bit different this year...more papery and ruffly.

 (not sure those are real words :))

Never the less, they were still so beautiful

 a few days ago when I took these photos.

A big hello and warm welcome to new readers and followers.

Many thanks for all your lovely comments.

It is so nice to meet new friends.

I did something really stupid yesterday...

...forgetting that even though I feel 20 something in my mind...

I'm fifty something and well...

...not exactly in the same great shape I once was.

Anyway...I pulled something in my back and it's rendered me helpless...motionless...bored and frustrated.

Grrrr...

I'm so mad at myself!

Hoping things will improve soon!

Hope you are having a good week.

:)

Bit of Pretty

I'm so enjoying all the spring blossoms in the yard...



...floating a few petals with a piece of pink quartz...



...a pretty hand painted porcelain plate...



...found it in the bottom of the cupboard in the dining room...
...forgot I had it...in fact...
at the moment... I can't remember when and where it came from!



This sweet little pitcher belonged to my grandmother...
...I think of her in her farmhouse kitchen whenever I look at it.



Found this forlorn tiny pink, white and gold trimmed cup sans its saucer at the flea market this week...
...just a quarter...
...adopted it.



"Think of me"...

...at home!

Cleaning out...trying to reduce clutter...
...not making much progress thus far, but persevering!

Think of me...
...being able to go outside
in the spring
...during the day!

Think of me smiling!
Hope you are too!

Pale Pink Blossoms

I walked down to the mailbox this afternoon and noticed that my next door neighbor's yard was full of flowering trees...
These trailing pale pink blossoms gently waved in the warm breeze...

Our yard has at least 8 dogwoods and a beautiful Japanese cherry tree....
...but not a single blossom has appeared yet!

It is something to look forward to!

A blogging friend has pointed out that I am approaching 400 posts!
Guess it's time for another give away!
Hmmm....I will have to give this some thought...
...perhaps I'll sleep on it!
good night! :)
