LET THE BEAUTIFUL STUFF OUT

We are cups, constantly and
quietly being filled.  The trick
is, knowing how to tip ourselves
over and let the beautiful stuff out. 

~Ray Bradbury




 
My week seems to have flown,
how about your week?
 
Besides the usual of just living,
you know, cleaning, food prep,
school, reading, and knitting...
 
There have been mornings
with beautiful, pink skies.
 
A load of pumpkins that
needed to be baked and
stored for future pies, muffins
and puddings.
 
The ladybugs are back, a
month early, they are
everywhere.
 
The weather cooled off
and I actually turned my
oven on and baked a beef
pot pie for my guys.
 
And just enjoyed being
outside in the cool, fresh
air.

This weekend please remember
that you are beautiful, so tip your
cup over and let it out and show the
world!

Love,
Tracey

  7. What a beautiful sky shot. How cool to get up close to the ladybug. My daughters used to look for them and count their spots which indicate how old they are.

  8. Good morning, Tracey! Wow, did I ever need that encouragement today. :) Your photos are lovely as always...I especially like the ladybug. There is nothing like the simplicity of a normal week with all the normal to-dos. Glad your week was full of them; I needed this reminder like you couldn't imagine. It was 20 degrees here this morning, but with the frigid, clear night comes the blessing of brilliant blue skies all day long. Tomorrow we are expecting more of the same and so I hope to get outdoors to finish cleaning up my back yard and herb garden. Have a blessed weekend!

  16. I feel that way about my oven also. Thankfully, it's FINALLY cooled off here too. It was a "freezing" 66 degrees this morning at 7am. Now it really feels like Thanksgiving is next week, for real.
    Love your shoes!
