Words on Wednesday...and T stands for

-
tut, tut...late again... a  little Lapsus Calami, a phrase I love which I found on www. merriam-webster.com.  You may already be familiar with their dictionaries or reference books, but they have an awesome online presence on twitter, various apps, word of the day and word games. If you love language, want to amp up your scrabble game, or just want to add a nifty word to your vocabulary, sign up for their emails.
But back to Tuesday...
Oh my, what a calamity, a lapse in time, and it's Wednesday, not Tuesday. How on earth did that happen, just another lapsus calami, I guess. But on the matter of time flying and the importance of words,  what words have more impact than the 2 simple words..I do..talk about life changing!!! If Tuesday turned to Wednesday in a blink, then marriage to our  anniversary was a flash. I mean yesterday I was 21.

This picture hangs on my kitchen wall, and I still love it... It doesn't matter where you go in life...what you do...or how much you have...It's who you have beside you. ...an Anniversary Blessing.
As I tell my kids, choose well...and today on our 31st we celebrated.
iced tea, and a locally crafted beer

crabmeat pie and sirloin tips
rice with butter, butter and more butter!

Cheers,
it's a long way from Killarney to here!
As the song goes, I've had the time of my life, and I'd do it all again...belated happy T day, yay for words that bind, cheers to us and cheers to you!

T stands for Traditions

Nothing says traditions like a holiday...and in our house Birthdays have always been treated like holidays! We hold firmly to the belief that if there is a day you are ever going to celebrate, it's the day you were born. Luckily for Fi, her birthday is October 8, which coincides with Columbus day this year, extending the Birthday to Birthday weekend. We lined up all kinds of special treats, starting with a Half Marathon on Saturday, if you can call that a treat..followed up with  some other birthday specials, breakfast out at our favorite diner,  presents, bookstore coffee and browse around,  made to order breakfasts and dinners,  chocolate cake (yum!) and a wind down with one of our favorite hobbies on Monday... painting Halloween Vignette Years ago, I painted unfinished wood and sold it at craft fairs. Fi loved to go with me to purchase supplies and attend craft shows looking for ideas.  Although it has been a long time since I have participated in a craft fair, we still hav

T stands for Transformation..

and nothing transforms like a butterfly...the metamorphosis is symbolic to so many cultures and religions. The butterfly offers an explanation of the life cycle, and in Christian faiths a symbol of resurrection. In Asian culture, butterflies symbolize long life and love. Native Americans see the butterfly as a symbol of color, change and joy. For them, wishes whispered to the butterfly rise to the heavens. To many people throughout the world, the butterfly symbolizes hope and change. Is it any wonder that I am always on the lookout for them? On our day trip to Ogunquit, I saw some beautiful gardens, lots of color, the ocean, and butterflies... spotted some butterflies... These butterflies were fluttering around in the beautiful gardens outside the Ogunquit Museum of American art. The sculpture garden, flowers and view were amazing. Art and Nature combined.. From here we walked the Marginal Way at Ogunquit, another of my favorite spots... Spectacula

T stands for Tranquility amid the turbulence...

Every click of the television remote or blast from the radio brings more aggressive news of hateful words and actions.  The stress of the situation is exacerbated by the sad fact that I have no impact over the current environment.  All of the lessons of history seem to be lost.   I can only hope that at some point peace, respect and common sense prevail.  Amid all of this discord and hostility, Nish and I went in search of some tranquility. There is no place it is easier  to find than in nature, so we headed to Heritage Museum and Gardens in Sandwich. Majestic trees Beautiful Vista And then we moved through the labyrinth. Moving meditation Labyrinth move within, let go circle, center, continue  end, let go, begin The current exhibit is Painted Landscapes: Contemporary Views.  Some of my favorites:  So much inspiration taken from the beauty of nature. It was back outside to one of my favorite water features of the Gardens. Flume fountain in
