LIFE GOES ON

The elections are over and whether your candidate won or lost, our country government will go on in an orderly fashion. I will pray daily for wisdom and guidance for the new leaders of our country. They have a very big job ahead of them and need God's help to accomplish everything set before them.

Here are some fall foliage photos taken in my back yard. We live in a subdivision with lots of common area which is nice when nature is at her best. Below is our dogwood tree which really looks a lot redder in person.

This is looking out the back across at my neighbor's. The sun was going down a little (I can't get used to the early darkness), but you can still see that wonderful blue sky. Fall does something to the sky and the blue-ness of it is breathtaking. Our weather has been divine, but I understand it's about to change.
Now here's some exciting news from the Nerm household. Below is Fluffarina who I've introduced before. She is 15 years old. Tomorrow we have told her she is going to have a "spa" day. She doesn't believe a word of it, being so old and wise. Problem is that since my mother has moved in with us, Fluffarina has adopted her. We turned the whole upstairs into my mom's apartment. Our master bedroom is downstairs. So Fluffarina stays up there most of the time.
My mother has spoiled her rotten, which is okay except she forgets to brush her. Now she has really bad mats and must go to vet and get them cut out. They will sedate her, but it won't be pretty.


Here is a side view-kinda lookin' like a porcupine, huh? We'll take a picture tomorrow after the makeover. She'll probably yell, "elder abuse!". ha, ha.


Have a good evening, folks. Nerm

Hi Nerm...I am back but I do not know for how long. Life only knows. Great new look. Glad to see you are doing well.

Good to just say HI to you.

Great pictures. I'm glad you posted at my blog so I could find yours! I looked at your Etsy shop too. I have one as well (http://dearfriendpaperie.etsy.com) but don't have items listed right now.

I'm so glad you are better. It is good to hear from you. The leaves are lovely. I love the fall. The kitty looks like one of ours. Fun. And me? Sleep? haha you are funny. I need a 48 hour day. Too many projects. But you are right. I can only do so much.
