same old, same old
I've been busy busy busy
and now, suddenly I see it's December! and still I have a basket full of un-made-up hares
tut tut
I have been away
but i did manage to bring some snow back with me
got some beautiful xmas cards for my family, and treated myself to another beautiful drinking vessel
(that gorgeous glass jar from Italy is now having a rest!) and the winter horses are bringing me tea every few hours
and like those horses above, I am out doing what I love in all weathers - training
and - I was Happy!
I love my training so very much!
free weights ~ running
and I am so happy following my heart, doing what I love every day
every day my life is filled with Joy and Love
(such a beautiful poster! it's in Starbucks at Edinburgh airport)
I always do things that make me happy
and I have an exciting film to go see soon, with a real honey in it! Chris Hemsworth *sigh*
The Huntsman Winter's War
looks like a good tale ?
the other week I went to a night-show light-show with my papa and his bestie, at the Botanic Gardens in Edinburgh
to see more of my favourite flowers
um, the fir trees were doing well
it was so freezing cold! there was snow in the air, but unlike tonight it didn't fall
thank goodness! though, me being me and a typical Scot, I had forgotten my gloves and hat and was dressed for a late summer's day
in between shivering I took some snaps
some displays were small and beautiful
this was a water fountain with fire flames at the same time
papa and I were wondering about the mechanics of it all, and the fuels involved, no oily residues were visible on the tiny loch so it must've been a fast evaporating flammable liquid...
(I would've liked a bigger fire to warm me up!)
and some of the light displays were very grand
a little while later I saw another light show
I visited the kelpies at night - em, well it was about 4pm, and you can just see the snow covered mountains in the background as the dusk set in
it's the first time I've seen these horses lit up, and they were very impressive
here they are dancing
oh okay, it was freezing cold - so it may have been my hands shaking instead!
and like all things illuminated, they changed colour as their mood dictated
erm, what's with the eery green eye? looks like it's rising from the sea
a little while before all that light show stuff, I was touching down down South
yeah - this is the plane's wheel on the landing strip
pretty neat pic eh
I am sure I had my phone set on the right settings to be able to take that pic safely (for the pilot and touch-down), but it's still a conundrum to me and every day I learn more about this mysterious little piece of communication equipment
it was at least 10degrees warmer than in Scotland! 14degree days - T shirt weather!
I've been getting some nice pics with my wee smart phone
and took this sunrise one last week as I was driving my papa to the airport
(he was off to colder fields! (Norway to be precise))
so it was good to see the Scottish morning giving some visual warmth at least
anyway, back to those beautiful eyes!
...if they have this attached to them - then definitely, for sure, absolutely, without a smidgen of a doubt -
...and if one of these wee babies comes my way,
then - oh my god!!
it will be xmas every single day!!
on December 24th it will be exactly 2years since my little soulmate Wesley left for the stars
- last night I dreamt about him -
and every day with a heart filled with love I think about him, and yes - he fills me with Joy and Love and Happiness
anyway, back to reality! I have hares ready to journey across the big pond, and more heading to snow laden pastures!
plus a basket full of leverets that need stuffing and homes to go
(maybe, just maybe, they will make it in time for xmas? but I'm not holding my breath!)
happy xmas!
and a late Happy Thanksgiving to all my wonderful American friends!
Thank You so very much!
I appreciate you with all my heart
lots of love xxxxx
