Foto Friday 15 ~ Just Breathe

 

Spotted the first Spider Lily.
It is time. 
:)


I photograph for Findagrave, and spotted this the other day.  Very unique, and special! 


We were driving behind these two guys on our way to town, and Mark and I both thought they were cows...til we  got closer!  HA HA.  I have no idea where they were from or where they were going, but stuffed bears?  I cannot even imagine.  Especially in southern Arkansas. 


I'm on my second 10 pound sack of sugar.  These hummers are hungry!! 
 I hope they make the trip wherever they are going. 


I named my porch geese Myrtle and Matilda.  I'm not very crafty,
 but I'm having fun with their outfits.  Don't laugh! 

Well, I guess that is it for the week.  It's been a rough couple of weeks here, so I am behind with posting.  I swore to myself I would improve with that, but life just gets in the way. 

If you pray or can send good thoughts, my step mom was injured & could have died during a procedure and is having difficulty getting back on her feet.  She can't eat much either, and that makes things worse. I am grateful that it was not a worse situation. 

I hope everyone has a good week.  Stay healthy and safe.

Love your pics today. The stuffed bears are so funny!
Thanks for your work with Find-a-grave. That's such a helpful site. And I love that stone.
Will pray for your stepmom.

So sorry to hear about your step mom. Life does have a way of halting all of the things I "plan" to do, so I understand. I seem to have one hummer left and the rest have moved further south. I hate to see them go! Thank you for linking up!

You've certainly seen some interesting things lately. Those bears! I'm saying a prayer for your step-mom right now. 🙏🏼

Your geese sound delightful, and I’m keeping your step mom in my thoughts for strength, healing, and a smoother recovery ahead

That is a unique tombstone.
I had a humming bird feeder which they didn't use. They'd rather have the petunias I had in a hanging basket on the porch. :)

I'm so sorry to hear this about your step mom, Terri. That sounds like a scary situation. I am whispering a prayer for her right now. The geese on your porch are delightful with their outfits. Love the long braided hair on the one. Oh, I just love the hummers. I see them often at my neighbor's feeders and just watch them flutter about so quickly. That is an unusual headstone; have never seen one like it before. And the Spider Lily is very unique and pretty.

It's officially Fall on Monday! Have a good day.

Prayers for your Step Mom. Life does get in the way sometimes and just exhausts a person. That spider lily is awesome. I need to photograph a few graves before it snows:)
