1 November





this is one of my favorite things about where I live

I come over the causeway and am blessed with this beautiful view

from my living room window I see just to the left of this Boston skyline

i walked across the street to the beach to take this shot

~


I have to go to the registry of motor vehicles 

I think it will take at least an entire day

I'm bringing some reading materials

and lunch...

Joe and I are both doing a lot of studying

every night we are both working on school things

it's kind of nice

~

I just found a site that lists all kinds of candy that is gluten free

I did not need this information

~

I have started having hot flashes

not fun

    That's a beautiful view I agree...
    It's a scientific fact that candy cures hot flashes. ;)

    Thanks for sharing your randoms this week! xo

    Nothing compares to doing anything when it involves government...like registering a vehicle. Yep, yep....it will take forever. Glad you'll be using some reading material.

    Your photo of the causeway is beautiful! I love the composition, with so much water and the city skyline. The DMV here is a nightmare, too. Good luck! One time I waited in a long line, got to the front, and was missing a document. Had to go home and get it, then start all over. Not fun!

    I hear you on the candy--I love sweets! Good luck at the DMV. I always take something to read when I go somewhere like that.

    I think that is a requirement for Dept. of Motor Vehicles to make it as difficult as possible for you to do anything there!! It's such a pain.

    Yay Sox is right! I was so happy to see the Red Sox win and David Ortiz to be named MVP! It was a really good World Series (of course the fact that I'm a long-time Sox fan probably helped), but I was so impressed with how gracious the Cardinals' Mgr. was in defeat. Now, if the idiots in Congress who lose would be half as gracious in defeat, maybe we could get some work done around here!

    Pretty soft photo. My email and Google seem better today. I have not and will not join Google +. I don't need more troubles added on to the ones I already have now.

    What a beautiful view you have. Congrats to the Sox...I was rooting for them the entire way (well at least since the Phillies were out of contention which was like.....APRIL! lol). And hot flashes??!!??? Argh, feel your pain!

    Simplicity - 1 picture says it all.

    I laughed at your comment on the gluten free candy website. Someone just pointed me in the direction of a great art/craft supply website. I should not have discovered it.

Abby and Hopie time

  ~ ~ ~ Abby and Hopie go to the beach. On Saturday my granddaughter, Abigail, asked if she could come to her Hopie's house all by herself. Of course, I said I would love that! Her older brother, Verne, wanted to go to a friend's house and her younger sister, Natalie, is too young to be away from mum for an overnighter. So...it was me and Abigail for the weekend. She wanted to stay 2 nights! I think she may have been slightly motivated by the need for some alone time and Natalie's late night crying. ~ We cooked homemade cornmeal waffles together for breakfast. When your grandmother is a Montessori teacher you learn to cut your waffles up by yourself. You can see the concentration on her face.  I didn't help at all! Verne's first day of Kindergarten! I drove up in the morning to watch him get on the bus! He loves it! On Monday morning Abigail and I drove back up to her house. My daughter, Hannah, came over with delicious donuts and Bonnie made a breakfast of bacon, s

a basket from the farmer's market

  A basket from the farmer's market. When I was a child my mum always had a fruit basket on the kitchen table.  Fruit was always an option if we were hungry at any time during the day. I had the same when my children were young and I noticed while visiting my daughter last week that she had a basket of apples on her table for her children. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree... I tend to put a basket of vegetables on the table as well.  Root veggies mostly since they don't need to be refrigerated.  I think that they look beautiful and why should fruit have all the fun! My favourite part is that everything (even the basket) came from the local farmer's market. It's so important to support local farmers.

 ~ ~ ~ A bit of reading material.  I've been collecting books again... I've almost finished Think Indigenous.  My daughter bought it as a gift for me but decided to read it first. She loved it so much it took her a bit to part with it. I am loving it as much as she did and have put it down almost all the way through  because I don't want it to be over.  Macro tex
