That's great for our little feathered friends. They are lovely to watch and become familiar with...

Reading your stuff transports me in the heart of Mother Nature where I feel nourished and loved and oh so wistful of your lifestyle. Seeing it all through your eyes only makes it ever so special. So grateful to have found you here!

I wonder if “ponder” came from thinking at the pond. 😂 don’t cancel me for bad jokes. Thanks for the hugs!

I love every bit of this, Barbara. The richness and nourishment Nature provides comes through.

So glad you listened to that inner voice. Beautiful read and visuals, as always.

I haven't written for over 3 weeks, there is something with the larger energies going on. Find I want to be in the woods as often as I can. (Which is not as immediate as your environment!.)

I'll be quiet during the eclipse too - hoping to align to those more powerfully positive aspects.

Thank you for sharing this lovely world of yours and your wisdom. 🌿🌿🌿

PS - When I can't sleep I imagine myself on top of 'my' mountain and find that helps. (I think they are like a global intelligence network.) :-) Best.

I like the idea of imagining I'm on top of "my" mountain. I'm going to try that the next time I'm thrashing at night.

Thank you, Kathleen! Are you feeling a time warp sort of thing going on? The days/weeks are zooming by. Yesterday I had the weirdest thing happen. I was writing away and the time on my computer caught my eye. It read 2:53 (or something like that.) I was so sure it was morning that I thought something was up with the internet. I checked my phone and it read the same time.

Honestly, this had nothing to do with my age :) I've been in creative reveries lots of times but this was different. The energy is 😳 right now and I feel the same as you about choosing the more powerfully positive aspects. What a time to be alive!

And YES to what you wrote about the mountains! XOXO B

Funny Barbara, I talk about how time has essentially stopped. It doesn't make any sense anymore and I don't even want to try and make sense of it. (Some people know what I'm referring to, others seem confused by the comment. Ah, well. What else is new?)

The energy is wild right now! I'm expecting many good things emerging in the midst of a mess and so agree - a great time to be alive.

Your 'surrounded by mountains' life makes me happy, mainly because it's clear how you soak it up. 😘

I'm not surprised that you're feeling the "time thing" too, Kathleen. What an amazing time to be alive, isn't it? XOXO
