Happy August ~ I am happily on the road, without my computer or printer, so this month’s calendar is a bit of an experiment. I usually do a test print of the calendar to make sure of colors and sizing, however I haven’t been able to that. So I advise that when you’re printing your calendar to check the printer option to ‘fit paper’ ~ or something like that. Good luck and I’d love to know how the printing process worked. Next month I should be back with my usual technology, but for now I’m traveling light! Happy August! And let us all be more daring!!!

welcome October!! so glad you are here ...

t'is the time for crisp fresh air, colorful leaves & some playful spirits ...

for your personal use ~ thank you & peace

 “Forever – is composed of Nows – (690)


Forever – is composed of Nows –
‘Tis not a different time –
Except for Infiniteness –
And Latitude of Home –

From this – experienced Here –
Remove the Dates – to These –
Let Months dissolve in further Months –
And Years – exhale in Years –

Without Debate – or Pause –
Or Celebrated Days –
No different Our Years would be
From Anno Dominies –”


― Emily Dickinson, The Poems of Emily Dickinson (Goodreads)

As mother nature preps for her deep sleep, let us all remember the importance of rest!!

Take rest; a field that has rested

gives a beautiful crop.

I am a HUGE fan of the colder months, much to many of my friend's disbelief. Besides the fact that I don't do well in the heat, I find that the cooler temperatures offer many opportunities to curl up and take a moment to pause. Similar to what much of Mother Nature does, burrowing down, underground to regroup and recharge.

So as we head into October and the next few months full of holidays, merriment and many gathering, I felt a good quote for this month's calendar is a friendly reminder of the importance of taking a rest!!

Happy October!!

peace, virginia
