Good news!
We have daffodils blooming in The Humble Bungalow Garden.
These cheerful yellow flowers elevate our flagging spirits
as we crave colour on these dreary rainy days.
It may come as a surprise to you but until recently I did not own
a totally waterproof coat...
I relied on water resistant coats and jackets and always carried an umbrella.
Perhaps a little bit strange
as we live on the WET coast!
Years ago,
when the children were young,
I wore a waterproof Gortex coat
it was bright red and I loved the bright colour on the rainy days.
I discovered a wonderful wee shop on Government Street
and
found a 100% waterproof coat perfect for our rainy days.
A
Simple
Waterproof
Breathable
Coat
I plan to wear some of my bright coloured scarves with this coat.
This wee orchid was a gift from dear friends when mom passed away...
Tomorrow March 3rd will be the anniversary of my mom's demise.
(it will also be my 65th birthday)
For these past few years I find my emotions are mixed on March 3rd...
I don't feel like I am 65, although I know that I am no longer a "Spring Chicken"
I am Grateful to be alive.
I am 3/4 the way through this book and am really enjoying it.
Have you read it?
Did you read her previous book The Post Mistress?
Yellow Hellebore
Sunshine filtering through the door in our front hall...
love the warmth and sunlight so much.
Simple Joys.
Hope that your week is off to a great start and that you are finding pops of cheerful colour in your daily round.
~ Be Well and Be Kind ~
