Beautiful Days

This is my kind of weather.
Cool mornings, sun shining and pleasant days.

The bumbles are busy everywhere
I smiled at my youngest granddaughter's
image
for tacky day at school.
Jamie, you are creative with a chip holder in her hair.


My pain and balance issue
may be with me for a while.
But continually thankful
this is all there is.

At the moment
my cane
is my best friend...

My husband cut hickory sticks for each of us...not bad friends when we are out and about the place. I also love these wonderful fall days and cool nights.

autumn is luscious, and i can hardly wait to see some color. you are lucky to live where you do - color in fall is glorious. here we have to search it out more since we have so many evergreens.

has the doc determined why you are having balance issues? hope the pain is gone soon and your balance is restored.

Judy and Mary, thanks for visiting.
Sky, leaves not quite turning yet :) Balance, a part of Sjogrens and Arthur. Old right ankle injury(like 12 years ago)where I thought it was sprained, never went to doctor and it was fractured was never put in cast is very weak.
This is making me not as stable and did not realize it until this fall. Doing exercises to strengthen ankle.

My yoga teacher told me that balance issues seem to exaggerate during changes of seasons. And my mother once told me that a cane made her look more distinguished and wise. And I acknowledge your determination and appreciation for life.

I hope you will feel better again soon.
In spite of the pain, may you feel able to enjoy the autumn; there is so much to celebrate at the moment.

Oh, yes, it is such beautiful weather right now. And the light is luscious, too.
I love that "tacky day" photo....so happy you are doing alright and finding relief and comfort with your cane.

Hi Ernestine,
We are seeing a slight tinge of color in our trees. I too love the chill in the air in the morning and the sounds of fall in the woods. There's nothing like sitting near the woods on a fall day, just taking in the warmth of the sun.
Happy healing,
Balisha

Good to read of your gratitude and thanks for the cane.

I reflect we are all fortunate to be on this side of the sod.

Just catching up on the last few posts. My internet connection has been terrible lately, so I've barely been online. Catching up while I have a signal!

Love your bumblebee and your "tacky girl" photo. Glad to read your thoughts. Take care!
