Mr L trying to land a fish! Much care needed!

Thanks for viewing 😀

"The greatest gift is a portion of thyself." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

For over a month now I've been looking at this gorgeous wreath that was folded for me with such care wondering to myself how am I ever going to do it justice in a shot?

I don't feel that I truly have accomplished just how intricate and detailed this is; and of course, as I was processing this out I thought of a better composition but having lost all of the days light, I didn't have the chance to re-shoot.

I might have to try shooting this again another day; it's too wonderful to only use as a prop once, if you ask me.

Hope everyone has had a good day.

Sorry there may be a few of these to come. How could i not upload it.

Thanks to Karin and Chri for their helping hands and of course thanks to Alex for fooling the gravity! :-)

Mother care also includes making the kids independant, the kids wanted to drink, but the response: go away, your teeth are too sharp by now.

Staircase: Cour d’honneur, Les Invalides

“Les Invalides, commonly known as Hôtel national des Invalides, is a complex of buildings situated within the 7th arrondissement of Paris. The Hôtel des Ivalides was commissioned in 1670 by Louis XIV in order to provide accommodation and hospital care for wounded soldiers. Constructed from 1671 to 1676 by Libéral Bruant, then by Jules Hardouin-Mansart and Robert de Cotte, it is one the most prestigious monuments in Paris.

The complex operated as a hospital and retirement home for French war veterans up until the early 20th century. By the early 1900s the dwindling number of veterans led to the building being deemed too large for its purpose. The remaining veterans were transferred to other facilities in Paris and this paved the way for the museums to open in place of the hospital. The modern complex does however still include the facilities for about a hundred elderly or incapacitated former soldiers.

The Musée de l’Armée or the Military Museum of the Army of France was created [within the Les Invalides complex] in 1905 just after the World Fair and is the result of the merger of the Musée d’Artillerie, opened in 1796, and the old Musée de l’Armée created 100 years later. It extends over 8,000 square meters (86,100 square feet) and is made up of a museum and two churches with some 500,000 objects. This makes it the largest museum of military history in France, and one of the leading ones in the world.”

Happy Window Wednesday! 😊

OK, how about 30 days of photos taken from my bed?

This is Lola, barely able to reach the top, checking on me. My bed is one of the only places the dogs aren't allowed.

Isn't a merry-go-round such a powerful image for innocence and childhood? Summertime for me is filled with memories of carnivals, amusement parks and carousels. When I was younger I would opt for the car you could spin in and we would make ourselves so dizzy just spinning and spinning. What seat did you like to take on the carousel?

Intensive Care

A birth. So many doctors in the room over by the newborn baby, only one finishing with the mother. The father, over by the baby, with a terrible look on his face.

The mother is taken to her room. So tired from the long ordeal and drugs, yet confused as to why the baby is not in the room with her, as is the usual custom now.

She is alone, as if everyone has forgotten about her. She calls the nurse to see what is happening and is told that they do not have any information nor do they know where her husband is.

And then the doctor comes in, grim, to tell her two babies had died in intensive care so things were a bit hectic at the moment. He also told her that her baby was also sick and in intensive care. That was where her husband was, with the then unnamed baby. They would try to get information to her soon, but with the other deaths, it was difficult right now.

The mother cried, only heard the word kidney. The doctor gave her a shot and put her to sleep. ©Teag Mcgillivary

Great day in Stoke with Tea, Reasm, Riz, Moot and guest Prestonian Moz...Cheers to the NTRPRNRS for the invite down, and Tea1 for the joiner.

For some hard earned extra cash, our streets are also left a little cleaner. She looks like the returnables are collected with care. More than pulling her weight.

The future of the Amazon forest depends in large part on those whose livelihoods depend on the forest and who care for it.

Not well still....

The covid years.

Seems longer ago than it actually is.😳

But I care.

Tagged by Rachel to write anything, a poem, a story, anything at all - so here's a poem I wrote a couple of weeks ago that fit in with this photo and coincided with the windmill spinning inside my head.

Out of my mind.

i don't see you

anymore

if only

out of sight meant

out of mind

In an overcrowded bus spotted these 2 young migrant workers enjoying their ride without consideration for those ladies standing in a packed bus. Looks like Singapore's courtesy campaign didn't deliver the message...

Improbity

In each word we say

Mendacity

We pretend to pray

Perfidious

The words of Jesus

And anytime

We end up smashed to pieces

Ingratitude

In a world of lies

We are free from cares

We close our eyes

I assume

There is no healer

To heal this world

To make us cleaner

I assume

There is no healer

To heal this world

To make us cleaner

Free from cares

Hypocrisy

We show each day

Leads into darkness

We go insane

Understandably

We are of no account

We jeer the creatures

That we once found

It`s tenderness

We are living on

So it`s not wonder

That we`re all gone

don’t complain about the thirst.

If you want to be respected,

be the first to show how it’s done.

Downtown

By Petula Clark

When you're alone

And life is making you lonely,

You can always go downtown

When you've got worries,

All the noise and the hurry

Seems to help, I know, downtown

Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city

Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty

How can you lose?

The lights are much brighter there

You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares and go

Downtown, things'll be great when you're

Downtown, no finer place for sure,

Downtown, everything's waiting for you
