Happiness is as a butterfly, which, when pursued,
is always just beyond our grasp, but which,
if you will sit down quietly,
may alight upon you.
(Nathaniel Hawthorne)
I'm at home today;
futzing,
puttering,
sweeping,
laundering,
spritzing,
loving my house.
Quietly reveling in a few days of fall respite.
Watching the leaves fluttering down outside my window.
B and the Tater Tot have left me to my own devices.
They are having their own Fall Break in a tree stand in the woods.
Oh, Happy Day.

Sweet post... & fond memories... when the boys were small, I was home with them...then they got old enough to go along... fall hunting, meant some chinese & a movie for me all alone... good for you to be cleaning, I would be vegging :)
ReplyDeleteHey Miss Kathy! Never fear, there's plenty of vegging going on over here! And now I have an overwhelming urge for some General Tso's chicken. Be back soon....
ReplyDeleteOh you lucky duck!
ReplyDeleteA little peace and quiet sounds so good about now! Enjoy yours!
ReplyDeleteYou have just described my all-time favorite kind of day.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it all good?

Just say when-
or let me know what photos you like from other posts-
it is all up to you.

Don't you just love futzing & puttering? I love days spent doing that & should probably allow myself a few more here and there. I call them my "renewal" time. I really enjoy your blog.

This is my favorite kind of day! Nothing like puttering around the house.

I love your blog. Period. The end. PS: My cat Madeleine looks a lot like George. She's a real priss butt so they'd probably get along just fine.
