IS THE WEEK REALLY ABOUT OVER?

May my heart be kind,
my mind fierce and my
spirit brave.










 
I blinked and this week flew by.
 
I am still deep in the home cleanout,
and while it's going slower than I
would like, I am pleased at the end
results.  I have made three trips to
Goodwill so far this week and there
will be another tomorrow. With each
trip I make I feel a little lighter, it's a
good thing.
 
There were terrible thunderstorms
and lightening so bad I thought my
home had been struck. Thank goodness
no, but it was pretty scary.
 
I cried along with so many others
when the news of Robin Williams
suicide was revealed.  Heartbreaking.
 
This morning I woke to clear skies
and the scent of fall in the air, I know
it won't last, but I'm enjoying it while
it does.
 
I knit a hat for a son who does a lot of
work on an airport run way,
and I finished my shawl. I love this
shawl and plan to wear it a lot!
 
I have been teaching Daenerys
and Tyrion their names. I am
finding bantam chickens to be
so very sweet and can't wait to
hatch out a few more.
 
There are still figs everyday, but
they will be coming to an end soon.
They do make the heat of summer
a little more bearable and I've enjoyed
every one.
 
The mail delivered a Lady Cordelia orginal
and music to enjoy as I continue my
clean out. Wow! What an amazing talent
this woman has, I love her voice.
 
Amanda was kind enough to share the
pudding recipes she mentioned and
I just happen to have all the ingredients,
hooray, I love when that happens and
can't wait to try both puddings.
 
Okay, it's time to get back to work, but
first I want to wish you the best weekend,
stay happy and safe.
 
Love,
Tracey

PATIENCE

Adopt the pace of nature: 
her secret is patience. 

~Ralph Waldo Emerson




Figs, my all time favorite fruit,
the main ingredient in my favorite
salad, The fruit I need to make
this, and then I want to try this, this.
this, and this. Oh, and then there
is this too!

Patience? It's hard sometimes.
