Two for Tuesday~ Uneven/Flat~ ~

~ Project Life Tuesday-

a photo a day to share our lives... even though all my children are grown and I guess Dave and I are too old for this new equipment.. I have wonderful memories of this same space.. my sons played baseball on the old fields and all of my children swung and climbed on the playground equipment that was here when they were small.. We also spent many hours here in the skate park before skateboarding became an "almost/in some spots" crime in our town!

That's My World Tuesday~ this little guy has been guarding my back door for a long long time..though he is weathered I still love his welcoming smile...

Oh What a Day .. But At Least It's Friday!

"Time ripens all things. No man is born wise. Bishops are made of men and not of stones." ~ Miguel de Cervantes

*************************************************

~ Somewhere between my own house and where my Grandma once lived..

Sky Watch Friday- Season 4.. Episode 12- ************************************************** ... This reflection is in a window of what used to be Grandma's house.. standing there..

hating what her house had become.. I did a little "reflecting" of my own.. I thought about how much she loved her home.. how she would rock on the porch and enjoy people watching.. and about how silly it seems to me that there are so many abandoned and neglected houses everywhere.. are we such a selfish people that we would rather for a house to simply fall in around left behind treasures than to rent it.. or even to pack up belongings of our parents.. I left there wishing I could take the shutters.. that I am willing to bet either my Dad or Uncle made

and thinking about how sad it is that her house and the one next to it will both be no more in a short time.. It makes me angry.. I know people who could fix those houses and who also need a safe place to live...
