Simple Things- Spring


Well if it was up to the birds and me Spring would really be here and the way I like it- warm and sunny! Id also be planting the 20 + pots of flowers and herbs sitting on my deck. Instead Im watching the rain drip, drip, drip with no break in the clouds and the weatherman's promise of another weekend of rain. Yet without the rain all the above pleasures would not happen and Id feel like I was living in Afghanistan.

Simple Things- The Chair


I sketched a chair in my journal page today inspired by a quote from Thoreau -

"I had three chairs in my house
One for solitude
Two for friendship
Three for society "

Its the simplest things that can bring great thoughts.
