" Where there's tea there's hope." - Arthur Wing Pinero
-----
After a difficult and stressful day, settling in with a cup of tea is a nice release.
My day did not go as planned. It started with a collision that caused a lot of damage to my vehicle (I wasn't at fault), but none to any people involved, thankfully.
So instead of going to work today, I spent my time working with insurance, repair centres and rental places. Which makes for a long day, but glad to have everything rolling. Fingers crossed that it doesn't take too long for my car to be repaired.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

Just testing to see if I've finally managed to reset the ISO in the remote flash trigger. Success ! (press lots of buttons and see what happens)
In the end this all turned into an exercise in using negative space.
When I saw this bendy tree in a landscape I had to try to get it isolated and that's when I found out it had a friend.
Whether sharing a grand adventure, hardship, or a thing of beauty, the experience is always better when you have someone to share it with. I count my blessings in that simple truth and I'm sure this couple did the same during last night's sunset at the beach.

I don't usually blog for other things but Simple Things sent this bed and night stand out just when I needed a new bed for my house, and it is perfection. I am using the PG version. This bed set is available at this round of Uber - and I think it would look smashing in my Shotgun House. The Highboy is by me. The house is my "real" home in the Grove which has never been released because I like that mine is the only one.
Tis the gift to be simple,
Tis the gift to be free
(From The Shaker Hymn, AKA Simple Gifts)
Exquisite beauty is often found in the least ornate simplicity.
Won't you come see about me
I'll be alone dancing, you know it, baby
Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving me everything inside and out
And love's strange: so real in the dark
Think of the tender things
That we were working on
Slow change may pull us apart
When the light gets in your heart, baby
Simple Minds
while we were sitting in our car in the parking lot at Stink Beach, a van pulled in near us, the back door opened, and out tumbled a wiggle of little boys, the oldest maybe 7, all excited, the two mommies trying to gather up beach gear and also keep them herded, they were so cute, and then off they all happily skipped across the road to the beach. By the time we got down there, three kites were already high in the air with a delighted boy attached to each of them. The wind was perfect, a light stiff breeze, such a simple pleasure, it was wonderful to witness.

I may agonize over which of my so many pairs of hose I have in my drawer to put on but once I made my mind, I know exactly how to go about getting the best of it... Here, I try to explain, while holding the phone in my left hand, how I usually go about fitting my right hand into the right leg of the hose all the way to the end. No question, pantyhose and slips are important fetishes to me which date back all the way to the tender age of 12 when I discovered sexuality...
