I'm asking those who love the outdoors to post a picture on your page. A picture that YOU took. Just a pic. No description. The goal is to regain peace and harmony without negativity. Please copy the text, put a picture on YOUR page, and let's look at these beautiful pictures.

We didn't really get any snow here on the coast, but just a few miles inland it's been lying for the past four days. It freezes overnight, but is gradually melting during the day, so although it looked very pretty on Thursday, now it's got to that untidy, patchy stage. Personally I'm glad to be on the coast *g*

On to the meme -

I was feeling a bit negative yesterday, but I slept really well last night and suddenly I'm feeling a lot brighter. Just goes to emphasise how much mood responds to lack of sleep. I hope you all slept well, too.

Good morning!

So being in such a positive mood, let's talk dystopia.

The UK news is oppressive, full of covid infections. The news from the US is just strange; my best wishes to my US flisties. Facebook is full of posts declaring that 2021 is as bad as 2020.

I am not going to bemoan the new national lockdown. It is what it is. I am going to thank heavens that the 'bubble' arrangement is still in place and unchanged, so I won't be totally isolated for the next couple of months ( Read more... )

Happy New Year everybody. I've already said that to many, on your own journals, but I just realised we are three days into the new year and I have not posted in 2021. So much for that plan *g* (No, I don't do resolutions for this very reason *g*)

But it is a new year and a new meme. Gakked from brutti with thanks.

1. What’s one question you ( Read more... )

And so 2020 is almost over. Just a few hours to go. I don't think anybody will be sorry to see the back of this year. Rarely has a New Year's promise been so longed for and welcomed. The first half of 2021 is likely to be as hard as the past 9 months, but there is hope that it will end eventually ( Read more... )

I am rushing around today, so this is a quick fly-by post.

22 Are you a “peeker” about gifts, or do you prefer to be surprised?No, I'm not. Mostly because I don't keep presents lying around. In a normal year we never put out our Christmas presents until the evening of Christmas Eve, so there is no time to peek ( Read more... )
