Thursday is grocery shopping day and we got that done. It was mostly cloudy and quite chilly. Not a day to spend much time outside.
I did manage to go for a short walk. When I came back this lovely vase of flowers was waiting for me by the front door. They're on the dining room table now and every time I look at them I feel blessed.
Chilly weather didn't keep my DH and Youngest Son from starting the latest project in the area behind the house where one of the raised boxes which had obviously rotted dropped its load of soil and needed cleaning up. Fortunately a couple of new boxes had been built and were set in place. A few more days of work to get it in place. Not the best picture because I took it through the window.
That was my day. Now I hope to get some reading done. Thanks for coming by.
What a lovely surprise to find the flowers on your doorstep. So cheering. I enjoy the ordinary days.

DeleteHow lovely to find flowers on the doorstep... in a vase too. I suppose that could be a good use for all the thift store vases... reusing them to make surprise gifts for people 🌼 🌸 🌻
ReplyDeleteGloaming, I like that word! And know that time well! Also known as the golden hour. So great that you're getting garden projects taken care of!
ReplyDeleteHi Marigold, how nice to get a new garden box!. My husband and I have been talking about building some for years and have never got around to it. I broke several vertebrae in my spine several years ago and I need raised beds that are high enough for me to sit on a stool and work. We have found some adaptive designs and will get around to it one of these days. :). I never heard that term gloaming before. That one of my favorite times of the day. We have a park with a walking trail across the street from us and I like to go out for a little walk and watch the sunset. It's also the time that all the fruit bats come out. I love watching them flutter and dive all around. My MIL is kind of freaked out about them so I refrain from saying "bats" and call them "night birds". haha. I hope you have a lovely day ahead! :)
ReplyDeleteSo glad for the blessings here and beautiful vase of flowers!
ReplyDeleteI rather like that gloaming period in the morning to when the hush is over everything. Faith@FarmhouseWorthy
ReplyDeleteNice vase of flowers!!
ReplyDeleteYour people know you love flowers.
ReplyDeleteI still have one more beautiful bouquet from the garden. Soome the raised beds will be cleaned out and put to bed, thus the end of our cut flowers.
Autumn color is glorious now.
What a lovely surprise to find the flowers there. Glad you got a little walk in your day. :)
ReplyDeleteThose flowers are lovely.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Always a good day to find flowers on the door step
