PARASOL AND MUSHROOMS....


Vintage mushroom necklace .99cents, gold hoop earrings .99cents,  and vintage dress $5.99 all from Goodwill,  Parasol $1.48 from the Christmas Tree store.  I realize, having done this post, how much my parasol resembles a mushroom...unintentional but cool. 
Hello darlings, and darling new followers!!  I am so excited to show you these photos although the clarity seems to dissipate when I enlarge them.  I am not sure why this has been happening but I swear they are much sharper when smaller.  Anyway, this morning I had to have labs drawn to find out why most of the joints in my body are aching, so hopefully I will have results back soon.  After having them drawn, 5 vials later, I was in need of a cup of coffee and some grub so I stopped at the supermarket and bought everything in sight....{it's true, don't shop while hungry}.  I bought fresh salmon and tilapia, huge Bing cherries, organic blue chip tostitos, fresh homemade salsa, strawberries along with baker's chocolate to dip them in,  and this is all my idea of a good breakfast.  I put the food in the trunk so that I wouldn't  break open a package of something and start munching while driving...come on, we have all been there.  I usually leave the pretzels nubs up front with me and eat the entire way home.  Does anyone else do that?  How about when you get take out?  I can hardly wait to eat my egg roll on the way home figuring it's just a snack until I eat the chicken and broccoli.  Anyway, I  am hoping that you have a great Friday and an even better weekend.  I am working all weekend again but that's ok because I get to attend  Sunday service and do Yoga with the seniors.  I hope you have something fun planned!!  Lots of love,  Dawnxo

THE WOODS...part1 {new blog feature}

I can't tell you how much I enjoy the quiet of the woods.  I have been inspired to include this as a new blog feature.  I love recording my new discoveries so I am going to share with you my photos in collage form, my finds in THE WOODS!  I have been wandering through them everyday with the pups.  They trail off and I stand there gazing at every little detail, especially the fantastic rays of light reflecting through the trees and the numerous species of mushrooms.  After the rain, drops of water fall from the trees leaving a sprinkle of sunshine and raindrops like a brilliant misty waterfall....so beautiful.   An entirely new place to explore and take photos is just what I needed.  The pups now demand that I take them everyday by nudging me with their wet black noses.  Yesterday my husband went with me and I captured these photos.  I remembered to bring the little ceramic squirrel for the mushroom shots....I hope you enjoy this new feature as I am hoping to update it on a biweekly basis.
