Dependable Things & a Discovery

Today’s weather forecast has possible snow flurries predicted. I have seen snowflakes falling on this day. In the distant clouds, many have signs of falling snow. Seeing Nature being busy creates in me a sense of well being. Well being that there are elements on Earth that are dependable. 

Pot hole season is such an element of Spring.*

Parking next to a puddle or patch of ice outside my driver’s side door is another.

Sticking to my to rule not to buy sandals in the Spring because I do not need them is a dependable fail for me. (New to me sandals arrived today. ❤️ them)

Finding at the grocery store another packaged food item had shrunk is an increasingly dependable discovery. Three minis make up for one normal size ice cream sandwich.

* I prefer to capitalize Spring because I don't consider the seasons as common nouns.

Ripples, Color, Candy & Creativity

What was I thing still life

 What’s next to ripple to shore in the Spring pond of possibilities? 

I toss in pebbles of creativity, pastel colors, and, Easter candy. 

You know how your eyes do a  formula 1 connect to something your brain locks on? The Mine beam!? Hungry look beam! I keep taking mental snap shots of the store Easter candy displays. I’m suspicious of why that is happening because I’m keen in decreasing my sugar intake.  It is reason to increase my candy resistance. 

Pastel colors sing Spring to me. Every year I browse online for pastel sandals and flats. Rarely do I find a pair in any shade at a good price. I did find a pastel blue pair, but my size is out of stock. I will continue to look anyway. 

Creativity. Engaging in the use of hands to make things is, I believe, important to brain health. Today though, overcast and dreary, holding a book will have to do.
