      Slowly but surely getting recentered. Part of the whirlwind is the decision to make trip to southern France for our 50 anniversary. When my younger sister heard she asked for her and her husband to tag along on the trip. The agent was able to locate rooms and we fly out on July 1. I usually spend much longer making plans for trips other than when visiting relatives. Next trip will include Scotland, Ireland and a little England. namaste janice xx

      Oh my - how exciting!!! These are the things which keep us looking to the positive. Crikey if it wasn't for the this darned roof repair bizzo, I'd be plotting a way to come meet up with you... but will wait patiently for the Scotland visit!!! Yxx

    Lovely haiku, Janice. That is so exciting!! 50 years and what a romantic place to celebrate! The only trip I ever made was England, Scotland and Wales overseas...I want to go to Ireland some day to visit my great grandfather's home. Soon...I feel it in my bones:) xx

      Would love to go to those places, too. Time will tell if it ever works out as my sweetheart will be 77 in September. Best wishes on your trip.

    Yes, that old pond deserves a break. What happened to the frog?

neighborhood of colors

Carpe Diem #1263 neighborhood of colors After living for many decades in locations a little too monochrome in their occupants, I am pleased to be living in an apartment complex populated by a wide spectrum of colors and tones.  What joy to look up while on a walk to see someone who looks nothing like a 70 year old white woman.  To see the young mother in her hijab walking with her children.  To hear the rhythm of a different language floating across the pool.  To see the sun set profiling the gay couple as they embrace.  Yes, I am loving this neighborhood of colors. jewels glisten at sunset ©    petra domina Thanks to Chèvrefeuille for daily prompts on CARPE DIEM HAIKU KAI

new ways

Carpe Diem Writing and Enjoying Haiku #6 new ways T his has been the year when Hubby and I along with a whole bunch of other folks celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary . We actually started the celebration back at the end of June, our actual 'date'.  It continued with a trip to France. Returning home we began working on The Party that was delayed till the grandsons returned from a summer in Canada. As we have friends our own ages, they, too, are celebrating 50 years.  That means more trips.  Unexpected strength of hurricane Harvey resulted in Hubby and I choosing to downsize even more.  And how do two people stay together for 50 years of marriage?  Well, forgiveness, understanding and a willingness to step together into the unknown of new ways. fifty years with the same man always something new keeps me guessing what's next? © petra domina Thanks to Chèvrefeuille for daily prompts on CARPE DIEM HAIKU KAI   ...
