I Love Seeing A Rainbow

Posted on July 5, 2014 by LFFL

It rarely happens but when it does I’m just in awe at the sight of a pretty rainbow—and this was HUGE one! It looked even better when I was a few miles away on the highway because there was this fabulous view of the entire thing. Wow! As luck would have it, I was headed right for it bright and early on this particular morning. I’m getting closer and closer.

But, of course, by the time I get where I’m going, park, and get out of the car—the rainbow is right there and the view is not the same. So it doesn’t have quite the same effect when it’s all up in your face and then there are buildings and whatnot everywhere—because you can’t get an entire picture of it. But what I did see was gorgeously pretty nonetheless.

So from this angle, I couldn’t get the entire rainbow on camera. Naturally, from the highway further back it would have been a magnificent shot—but I wouldn’t suggest doing something like that. It’s just a tad dangerous.

So, if you have nothing else to do today, head towards the nearest rainbow—or any beauty of nature, for that matter—and enjoy it every chance you get.

The Beauty Of My Morning

Posted on April 27, 2014 by LFFL

It’s going to be a beautiful day!

Oh, what a beautiful morning! I love when I’m up early and get to see things like this. Right when I exited off the highway, I saw this gorgeous sunrise.

I love that the weather is finally getting and staying warm. And to think I had to suffer through the horrid months of winter just to get back to this point!

And to see a beautiful sunrise like this? Thank goodness for 24-hour grocery stores! This affords me to be able to shop at 4:00, 5:00, or 6:00am if I’m so inclined to avoid the herd of riff raff that will be shopping in the stores a few hours later. I mean, who wants to be around hundreds of people when you’re trying to get your shopping done?

I’m a much happier person when I’m the ONLY person in the store and have the place all to myself. Never mind that I look like I just rolled out of bed—well, I guess, technically I did. But still—I like being the only human shopping in a store.

So, if you have nothing else to do today, do some early morning shopping in a 24-hour store. And if 5:00 in the morning is too early for you, try the other end and do late night shopping at MIDNIGHT. You pretty much get the same benefits on either end of the clock—the store to yourself!!!

Colorful Cloudy Skies

I was so fortunate enough to be able to enjoy pink and blue skies on a cold winter day. I just love when the sky changes into magical different colors throughout the year and when you least expect it. You just happen to look up from what you’re doing—and there it is.

So, if you have nothing else to do today, enjoy a beautiful sunset or make out the shape of a cloud.
