Cooler today. May have to put shoes and socks on today after two days of flip flops. The prediction is rain next week which is needed. We will go from 77 degrees yesterday to mid fifties. This is the time of year when temperatures go up and down just to keep us on our toes. I actually have the little heater on right now to take the chill off of my little home on wheels. I am grateful to be here rather than where it is currently snowing.
This is a picture of the flowers Megan brought me last Sunday from Malcolm's (her husband) garden. They are still lovely and fragrant. And imagine that, they are purple and white. Love it!!! Thanks again, Megan.
Smells are something else I have become more aware of recently. After it had rained last week, the eucalyptus trees were very dominant. The sweet alyssum little white flowers were wonderful too. After a rain everything simply smells fresh and clean and new. The air is clear and all the colors seem more vibrant. It feels so good to be outside then and enjoy it all. Although here, it is wonderful to be outside any time. Even when it is raining or foggy.
It is time to get out there and walk and get the blood flowing. I spent way too many hours inside doing my tax preparation than being out in the sunshine. I best do it now before the clouds take over and the temperatures drop.

and what can it mean in the time left to me? ...
What have I contributed in the Great Ledger?"

Enjoy your contribution!
