30 Day at Home Challenge – Day 14

…I’ve finally caught up….today’s theme is Family

Thanks to Leanne Cole for hosting this fun challenge. Today we are suppose to photograph a family member. Since my husband and I are the only ones in our house right now, besides the dog, I decided to share this photo.  I took this on the weekend when I was feeling particularly sad. He brought a smile to my face while he was doing what he loves to do….cook for me.

30 Day at Home Challenge – Day 12

….thanks to Leanne Cole for hosting the 30 Day at Home Challenge

On day 12 the challenge is to find something abstract at home. I have lots of abstract paintings but I thought that was too simplistic so I chose one abstract painting and two objects with interesting patterns.0031-D241-CDA7-441-C-A757-EA69684695-B6-1-201-a

Sunday Trees – 439 (…and a Personal Message)

…thanks to Becca Givens for hosting Sunday Trees

I can barely remember what day of the week it is and during this strange time in our history I find myself experiencing a whole range of emotions. One of them is extreme sadness and it hit me like a ton of bricks this past week. I reached out to my family and some of my friends and they helped me through this difficult time with humour and love.

For a couple of days my blog was sadly neglected and I’m only now trying to get back into it. I’m not doing this out of a sense of duty but rather for the love of it. It really does give me perspective and a place to connect with friends all over the world. I hope all of you are coping during these trying times and staying safe and keeping healthy.

Sending love and hope

Carol

Saturday Sculpture – April 11, 2020

….thanks to Mind Over Matter for hosting Saturday Sculpture

I love this sculpture in front of the Design Museum in London, England. The artist is Eduardo Paolozzi. This photo was taken on our trip to London in October 2018.5-B7-BE807-88-FC-4-DE6-9629-4-D72-A28-AB18-B-1-201-a

Ornament in a Cupboard – Day 9

…thanks to Leanne Cole for hosting 30 Day From Home Challenge

This Easter is so different from other years and because I’m not seeing our granddaughter I hadn’t taken out any of our Easter decorations. This challenge got me thinking that despite the fact that there will be no family here that is not a reason to not decorate the house.40-D186-C0-6-DC0-487-F-9-A35-D17-C8-E052-B5-D
