Change – As I Saw

imageIn response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: “Change.”

For several minutes, the airplane I was on, flew over some amazing mountain peaks. Β I was mesmerized! Β The pilot had announced that we would be landing soon. Β I never stopped looking out the window…I felt like I had entered into another planet! Β As I was daydreaming, an unexpected scene jumped at me –Β A sudden change:Β from a massive collection of brownish mountains, with high and low peaks, to a massive collection of tiny and long metallic geometric structures!Β Β San Francisco! Β I was over the city I was about to visit!

A good day, today!

No reactions, no hot headed-ness, no judgments, no arguments, no attitudes. Β Kept my cool and did not react instantly. Β Was a busy day, but ended up having a good day, today!

8 AM: My husband dropped my daughter to school. Β Gave me extra time to enjoy my breakfast.

8:30 – 10:30 AM: Workout time!

11:30 AM: Checked out my daughter from school for physical therapy for an elbow injury.

12 PM:Β My daughter had lunch at a local restaurant. Β I filled out paperwork for therapy session.

1:00 PM: Therapy time! Β The therapist asked my daughter her expectations from the session. Β I quickly answered, “Good news. She wants to hear that she can go to gymnastics again.”

2:00 PM: Therapist said, “She’s all good to go to gymnastics, but she still needs to be back for two more sessions. Β That’s to make sure everything is going good as she eases into it.”

2:40 PM: My daughter goes back to school.

2:45 PM: I had my lunch – late! Β Salad with chicken, strawberries, dried cranberries. Β Yummy.

4 PM: My daughter returned home from school, played with the dogs, then got ready for gymnastics. Β Totally excited since she had missed several weeks of it.

4:15 PM: I called a photo studio to register my daughter for her senior picture session. Β After holding for 15 minutes I got a representative. Β But our connection cracking! Β Heck, I was not going to call againΒ and wait again. Β Finally got good connection, I had to be outside my house. Β I felt a big relieve!

5 PM: I called the gymnastic place to make a payment. Β The director said that she will not charge me until she sees how my daughter does today. Β I was impressed…great customer service!

5:30 PM: Took my beagle for a walk. Β My husband took our pit bull. Β Great walk!

6:30 PM: Dinner time! Β I skewered marinated chicken. Β Then grilled it with peppers, onions. Β Baked a potato and split it in half. Β My husband sautΓ©ed peas. Β He loves peas.

7 PM: Β Had dinner out on the deck. Β Gave dogs chewy treats. Β Lit a candle. Β Enjoyed a beautiful cool evening.

8 PM: My daughter returned from gymnastics. Β All went well…she can continue. Β Good news! Β She had dinner…Edamame Pasta and Fruit smoothie.

9 PM: Β Daughter started on her homework. Β Dogs decided to rest. Β Husband went to play tennis. Β I sat to blog. Β Son rehearsing saxophone with a group of friends, should be coming home soon – 15 hours at school! Β Yikes.

Day is over. Β Evening has gracefully given into quiet sleepy night.

I really wanted to blog about this day. Β Everyday canΒ be like this. Β Advice: Need to keep my cool, and not react instantly in any situation! Β Since I want good days like today, I’ll be reminding myself of this advice frequently. Β Good days to you all too:)

Doggy Photo Shoot Day #18

Thomas being Sir Thomas! Loving the cool weather.

Today’s walk was awesome. Β Thomas loves the cool weather and dry grass. Β He walked slow today:). Β And, he thoroughly enjoyed rolling in the grass. Β  Β Then, he sat like Sir Thomas on the grass and rested for quite a while:). Β I also sat beside him until he was ready to walk back home. Β We had a blast! Β 

 

Monochromatic – A photo challenge

I walk with one of my two dogs, Thomas, my beagle, everyday. Β I am amazed by what I see Β during these walks. Β I see so much beauty, it intoxicates me. Β I’m addicted. Β I try to capture what I see. Β I walk the same path, but the path does not offer me the same. Β Each day is a “glass full” experience for me. Β

Connected: Weekly Photo Challenge

image
People taking comfort in their connections!

Life is short and we must talk;

Don’t keep your emotions in a lock.

Love for each other is like a peaceful soothing song;

don’t wait for it to come because you’ll be waiting long.

Persons, animals and objects are all connected in the core, for sure;

explore theseΒ connections,Β it’s a source of happiness and cure;

Cure for hate, cure for unrest, cure for tears.

Our connections and our acceptance will give way to love;

Peace will prevail,

and away will fear sail.

In response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: “From Every Angle.”

Beautiful couple of roses! Β They look beautiful from every angle! Β They have been with me a while now. Β I can’t remember the occasion now. Β More than likely they were for my birthday or wedding anniversary or Mother’s Day or Valentine’s Day. Β But they have been with me for a while.

They still glow in their fresh looking pinkish orange color. Β I know one thing for sure that these were given to me with love. Β I feel the love! Β Each petal perfectly placed and perfectly dried now. Β Dried but yet giving me warm feelings every time I go past them.

They are simple and elegant. Β They have no life now, but they continue to emit beauty. Β  Β When my life ends, it’ll be like these dried roses…still beautiful, emitting beautiful memories for the living!

…Thank you for visiting my blog. Β I’ll see you soon!
