Another Donkey Play Date

One of my great loves is photography.  I love nothing more than to fiddle with my camera and take shots of things that inspire me.  A lovely photographer, called Heidi Lender, who I just happened to stumble across yesterday took a series of photographs called Once Upon.  They are truly exquisite.

I do wonder though...... What is the dog thinking?

Please visit Kate at Another Donkey Design today.  It would make her smile and maybe you too :)

Today I am Grateful For... Coping

This week has been hard.  Two of our dear and loved immediate family are facing serious health issues.  Illness is such a debilitating thing for all involved and we all feel a bit battered at the end of this week.  In fact I have had to kind of think about gratefulness.  Which is good, it is making me be positive!  So this week I am grateful for:

• Hugs from my almost 13 year old son as he "cheers" me up
• Feeling the satisfied purr of the Puss when we sit together on the couch
• The support of my lovely husband
• The kind thoughts of all my lovely friends
• Good food and my veggie plants that allow me to potter, snip, mulch and squash bugs!!
• Beautiful photographs, like the one above, from Photographs for the Soul

Thanks Maxabella for allowing me to play along :)
