I enjoyed the extra hour of sleep last night. Began this day with my quiet meditation and prayer time. I watched a blazing pink and red sky from my window this morning. Breathtaking gift. Then headed to the coffee shop to visit my baristas, Emma and Megan. They made me a favorite, an Old Town mocha, extra hot. When I returned home I made a bowl of Irish Oats with strawberries and blueberries. Overcast skies then dominated the rest of the day. So, it became a day for journaling and I started rereading Annie Dillard’s book Pilgrim at Tinker Creek. I started reading her book a couple years ago but for some reason could not finish it. A cold wind has blown today causing the few remaining leaves to let go of their grip and take flight where the wind chooses. The Canada Geese were sitting on the pond earlier in an attempt to over talk one another. Not sure anyone was listening, except me! Glad they settled down. My hands and feet have been cold all day, which is normal for this time of the year. Had a couple of meetings and just got home from the last one. I’m in for the night. It was a good Sunday. Hoping you had a good day.

Thanks, Faye. I saw that you had some rain yesterday . Hope it was enjoyable and refreshing. Clear skies and sunshine for us today in Colorado.

Crazy weather here. Rain the last few days and temps in the 70s. Near 80 today with a high of 52 forecast for Sunday. And someone named Nicole supposedly crashing the party in the next few days. I’d welcome something normal like a little snow (did I say that?)!
Monte Stevens
Yes, you did say that. But, then Nicole could cause many to say some crazy things. If she does arrive, take care!
