  1. Good Morning, Sunshine

    November 17, 2009 by Gail

    good morning!

    The House of Fielding was up this morning at 5am to work (at home). This would seem more impressive if I hadn’t crashed at 8pm last night. Ottawa’s “only” a four-hour drive — half the distance than New York City the weekend before — but after going to bed at 5am yesterday morning it appears I need more sleep than ever. Must be this Getting Old Business, which is laughable except the white hairs are proliferating at a rapid pace. (And yes, if I were more vain, I’d have dyed my hair a long time ago!)

    On totally unrelated note, the sidebar shows my last five Twitter updates, but before this one slips off the page, did you know that Afghanistan only has one known pig? (Check out #34)

    We'll keep each other!
    We’ll keep each other! by Julie70

    A wonderful photo taken by one of my longtime favourite Flickr photographers, a 70+ year old lady named Julie (her Flickr URL is ‘joyoflife’), who also keeps a blog in French. Between the inspiration I find in Julie and Claude (who recently returned from India!), I am looking forward to growing older.

    Julie’s photo description:

    Enchanting happyness of that white haired pair to be together, I was so happy to look at them.

    At first I did not even dare to ask, than, I took only their hands, and finally I dared to ask even if I could take them: they were happy to be taken. What a memory! Their happiness fills even today my heart with joy.
