The snow in sweet home Chicago. (just for a few days...)

woman standing, all bundled up, in a very snowy landscape. Her arms are outstretched with thumbs up- she is about to make a snow angel. Smiling... and blue sky above.

Unless you know me, you will never know the significance of this photo. I’ll call it- me chilling on my sofa. Honestly, it’s monumental.

Smiling woman sitting on a peach sofa, typing on her laptop (on mastodon or Pixelfed of course!) she’s draped in a hand-crocheted ‘Afghan’ blanket made by her grandmother and her daughter’s art hangs above her - a beautiful blue painting of orange figures swimming or flying in a circle.

Since I’m still unwell, at least I can share a festive image… here’s to a friendly fun fantastic evening, and to writing your own soundtrack to life. Happy Halloween! (Yes, I gave pointed instructions for AI to make this) #Halloween #cello

Image of a cello with wood that is the texture of a pumpkin, and glowing jack-o-lantern eyes in the top of the cello body. The glowing mouth is just below the bridge of the cello and there is a ghostly bow next to the cello. The cello is standing upright on an open spell book, and there are mini pumpkin candles on a hard wood floor, with their glowing reflections in the grain of the wood. There is a night sky background showing the Milky Way galaxy, and there are some floating mini pumpkin candles in the air. It is a friendly cello!

@bazylevnik0 that was just what I needed! 😊

Healing... with my homemade lentil soup #Imadethis #soup #healing

bowl of red lentil soup on a wooden surface, soup bowl has a spoon in it and to the top left there is a cut piece of crusty bread just next to the bowl.

Today I've been tackling some big jobs. This was half, and well ... now that I've got started... I'm going to have to finish it !

Here's the floor that I've sanded and oiled. It's a very good start!

Painting an oil and wax combo on the sanded floor. (this has taken me ALL day)

Me on the floor, sanding. it's a big floor. So far I'm smiling...

Hand held sander, being held and sanding a wood floor..

I would very much wear this rose if it were a dress. Looks just like either a Quinceañera or a Disney princess dress!

It is very tasty!!

the lights on that cat's excellent sofa-chair are excellent !

My raisin walnut sourdough turned out A-OK! YAY! #bread #baking #sourdough

unbaked round loaf of bread with a traditional daisy type flower carved in the top

Finished, baked round loaf of bread with a traditional daisy type flower carved in the top, this time looking golden brown.

Went appling! Kind neighbour said help myself to the fallers... now my fridge is full. #apples - crumble, baked, puree, crunchy ... until March !!!! #autumn #yum

Woman wearing blue sweatshirt and white baseball style cap with super hero on it, smiling broadly. Grassy surrounding and bags of lovely big apples behind her.

The bluebells... an indulgent selfie. I love walking in the bluebell woods and I propped my phone on the ground and hit the 10 second timer. ...and it was fun to do !

woman almost sitting (in a pretty way) near the ground in the woods, with bluebell flowers all around her and tall trunked trees in the background. She is smiling and her medium long red-brown hair is looking pleasant. She's wearing a burgundy long sleeved top and jeans.

This morning's moon and sun #moon #moonset #sunrise #morning

looking over a field to see the sun rise just cresting the horizon, the Cathedral is just to the right of the sun. The whole sky is orange with glow.

moon set over an old church in an English village

Looking across blades of grass with dew drops on, at the sun rising over a field. A daffodil on the far left.

Some Christmas photos... hard to believe it was nearly a week ago already. There were some beautifully peaceful moments.

My morning view. (my cello)

When you forget to check your pockets. #FiverInTheWash (fortunately is really IS plastic money and it didn't go down the drain!)

do you save some snow in the freezer for when he gets nostalgic for winter? :) (I remember your snow stories)

somehow I love this very blurry photo of me and my daughter in the field at moonrise last night. #moon #field #dream

How does my garden grow? 1. Raspberries and a bee house 2. wineberries trained around a frame 3. a gift from a bird - a baby oak tree in the primroses 4. the ever-hearty rhododendron 5. maybe some apple blossom (another gift from a bird) 6. lily of the valley just beginning to unfurl (yes amidst weeds... and wild strawberries!) #garden #plants #blossom #growing #spring
