Project 52 - True Love

project 52 p52 weekly photo challenge my3boybarians.com
When it comes to love, my Hubby and I do not tell each other much that we love each other. At least not in so many words. We say something like "Have I told you lately?" or "Just a tiny tiny bit!" In our culture, to say something like I love you so much is to be too proud of what you have, to brag about it, and in such a case the very thing we speak of could be taken from us. So we minimize it in our words. We do not invite tests. Our love shows for each other in actions.  Its in the simple things, that speak volumes to me when I find them. Or when he finds them. It is in how we take care of each other, watch out for each other, miss each other when we are apart. It is in the little things done each and every day. I notice these things. For me, whereever I end up each day, I know at the end of my day I go home, and my true love, who I only love a tiny bit, is there. My heart lives there and waits for me. He gets me, and I am safe within his heart.
We have a word we share with each other, we put it on the bottom of cards we give each other, we tell it to each other and it says in that word you are my true love.

Old Garden shoes find new purpose as Planters for Hens and Chicks.



And an old Garden Implement makes a handy garden gate Lock.
It is nice to see people re-using old or broken things in a new way rather than sending them to the landfill.

Project 52 - Drink Up!

DRINK UP!
I really am a coffee girl, but for those times I do enjoy a cup of Tea, there are a few things you need that make the pleasure of having a nice cup of Tea a real experience.
My hubby got me a beautiful Tea Tray with matching cup, creamer and sugar container. I love my little sugar tongs! The little hands grab a cube of sugar expertly!
Tea is much better with flowers to enjoy as well. Kind of brings a bit of spring in!
For me Tea is a drink that is meant to be sipped, in a relaxed and peaceful mood. It is meditative, and calming after a stressful day.

Skywatch Friday


Taken just outside Harrison Hot Springs, B.C.
It was pretty cold looking at this pastoral scene, probably not as cold though as on the snow covered mountain.

Pussy Willows already!!

Sweet Shot Day
Our weather lately has been so mild and warm that things are getting confused. Is it Winter or isn't it??
These Pussy willows are not sure, they had to come out and check it out themselves.
And seeing all these blooming plants such as the Pussy Willows and other things like Snowdrops starting to bloom makes me happy that Spring must be around the corner.
I usually write down the texture I use when I process photos, but for some reason I didn't for these. Me bad!!

Today's Flowers

You know a girl loves to get a bouquet of flowers! The other day the phone rang, the caller asking if anyone would be home to receive a delivery of flowers.
Of course we would, but who were these from??

It wasn't my birthday.

It wasn't my Anniversary!
Maybe just because! That is a nice reason to get flowers delivered!

Turns out the flowers were from my work, for my 24th Anniversary of working in the Company. Only thing was, my anniversary of that is actually in May. Someone slipped up, and I got a beautiful bouquet of flowers as a result!!
