Yesterday was my close friend, Herb's, birthday.  I walked around all day thinking, whose birthday is it?  Then today at lunch an old colleague came into the Wagon Wheel and one of the first things she said to me was have you seen Herb?.   Bingo, birthday, my brain lit up.  AHHHHH.  



Definitely a good day, mainly cause I  got to spend  time with Dina and  I got some time with  E.J.  What more could I want?

The light was not good for taking photos, but it was fun anyway.   Before I met Dina I ran some errands and I took loops through fun photo places.  The threat of rain was a constant, but it didn't stop me from trying. I went to the Cove and when I left Gill I drove up Main Rd which is always got something to catch my eye.  Today my favorite Sycamore was hidden in shadows looking wonderful



Dina and I discussed Caring Circles today and how it is smart to create them too early rather than  to wait and find out you can't do it.  I  need to hold onto this house.  Life is not going to get less expensive and especially housing, so to follow through and make this place viable asap is my first goal.  





I picked EJ up at work  and we went for a little drive, we went looking for beavers.  Found a couple of lodges, but no four footed rodents.

What I did see today in my travels is birds,   big birds. I saw a Snowy Owl flying through the corn fields on Main Rd.  He was white, startling white against the snow covered field.  I was so thrilled.   And the Warwick Rd. red tailed was high up in a tree.

I saw several crows and I believe a piliated fly by at the cove.  Up above the rookery there was a gang of turkeys.  

It was almost sunset when I took photos of the Berkshires, but everything appeared as though  it was all in black and white.  One wouldn't know it was sunset, and believe me we are not seeing the moon rise tonight.

  December 11, 2025 I got to see all three of my siblings this year, what a treat.  Also, I got to see all three spouses, double treat.  I only saw 2 of the next generation and then 4 of the next generation.  I guess we just don't live all that close any more and I have a hard time making it to holidays or doing any traveling at all. It was another day of no photography and no creative writing.  I did get some work done and I did go to LAVA, but my time of loneness was spent organizing the have to's in my life.  I also was in touch with many friends and making sure all were well.  All were well.  So again I offer no insights, I offer no entertainment, nothing really beautiful to look at.  But I am checking in and saying good night.  Here's to happy dreams.   Good night.

December 4, 2025 A Hole In The Sky. I didn't get a nap today, I did get some stuff done.  I went out into the world today and I met the specialist doctor of the day. I feel that each merry go round. representing the three medical issues I am having, is organized and moving forward, which is better than 2 weeks ago when I felt trapped in a maze of the medical world's making.  I'm also going to teach myself the details of the digestive system of our bodies so I can have a better understanding of the information that is thrown at me in these appointments.   photo by Gary Gary went down in the basement, a job usually handled by T., and discovered I have more oil in my tank than I thought.  I was worried about running out during this 2 day cold burst.  But I have a month or so before I need to figure out emergency fuel stuff.  Tomorrow I will fill out all the forms though and be all set for when I need it.  I also have to fill out the forms for my Y me...
