Happy

It's 7:20 and I'm pretending it's not a Sunday evening. It's not so hard to do. Pour yourself a gin and fizzy beverage. Mix up some guacamole. Take a walk with your friend through the neighborhood. Enjoy the sun. 

Monday means back to work, new assignments due, responsibilities that can't be ignored. But, for just a few splendid minutes this evening there were none of those. No chaos. No frustration. No angst. Just the sun and the garden and me. Happy.

Yesterday, I cleaned the windows. Just a few weeks behind schedule. These were a welcome treat!
The strawberries are so amazing this year. Prolific and delicious! You just have to get them before the
slugs find them and much their shining tips... 

The honeybees are so happy, buzzing about the poppies. They emerge with the deepest, black pollen sacks.
It makes one appreciate the complexity of these flowers even more.
