Bloody Mess
I Fell This Afternoon I was taking my grandson (20 months) for a walk and he fell. I tried to avoid him and fell too and face planted straight on the footpath. He was unhurt, thank goodness but I broke one of the lenses in my glasses and gave one cheekbon

Today Marks the Autumnal Equinox
If you live in the northern hemisphere, September 23rd is this year's autumnal or fall equinox. For those in the southern hemisphere, it marks the spring or vernal equinox. So, this means that the sun has now crossed the celestial equator (timeanddat
FRYday, FRIday, PHRYday, PHRIday
You have probably never given much thought, if any, to the different ways Friday can be spelled phonetically. Until I tried to come up with a title for this post celebrating (and mourning) the fact that today is Friday I hadn't either. I am celebrating thi
Heavy Rainfall Took Me Completely by Surprise
It happens more and more frequently : although I live in an area where the climate is supposed to be temperate and extreme weather phenomena shouldn’t be frequent, the reality of the last few years proves the opposite: even in such areas nature can g
What Makes Me Happy During Each Season?
I found this writing prompt/challenge the other day and I kind of wanted to give it a whirl. It reads "What makes you happiest in summer, spring, fall, winter?" So let's give it a try, shall we?!Spring: The weather is not too hot or too cold, and the flowe
Fall Colors at Fort Mountain State Park
We decided to drive up to Fort Mountain State Park today to see if the leaves had changed much. We had noticed that in the last couple days they were changing more here so we were hopeful the mountain was colorful. We sure were glad we went! I'm going to
My Front Yard
When I was coming home the other day, I noticed how pretty the leaves looked from underneath on one of our dogwood trees. I was still keeping my eye on the road, I promise. Some things just jump out at me. Anyway, I decided to go out and take some photos.
Fall in the Smoky Mountains
My husband and I decided to take a day trip to the Smoky Mountains National Park yesterday. I wanted to see if the leaves were changing yet and get some photos. It had been a few weeks since we'd went on a photo safari after all. We did see some leaves ch
Editing
I wanted to show y'all the difference between my original and edited photos. The first photo is the original with no editing at all. I thought it was a nice photo. It's actually the only one I kept of the shots I took today. Something about it spoke to me.
Another Pretty Leaf
Hey there, y'all. It's been a few days since I posted anything but I have been reading and commenting some. I never post a lot on the weekends when my husband is off and I've been having a lot of doctor appointments lately so I've been busy. Anyway, I did
Homemade Halloween Decoration - Jack-o-lantern Milk Cartons!
Last night we started decorating for Halloween! Yes I know it's still almost a month away, but most of my decorations count as "Fall" decor too :) Plus my neighbors all decorated way earlier than I did so... I think I'm justified in feelin
Fall is Coming
We don't have a lot of fall color here in my part of north Georgia yet, but we do have some. I scoured my yard the other day for some leaves of different colors just so I could practice my macro photography. I think I got some pretty decent shots. It was f
Katydid or Katy didn't?
I love katydids! Not the way they look, though. Oh my heck, no. They resemble very large grasshoppers that were laying on their sides in the middle of the freeway and got run over by a Mack truck! Truth be told, they're actually quite ugly. But, I can ove
I Love the Sound of Rushing Water!
We all have those little things we #love that mean something to us, big or small. One of my favorite things is the #sound of rushing #water. It just does something to my soul every time I hear it. Whether it’s coming from a #waterfall, a soothing #
