As I mentioned yesterday, I'm trying to walk a little every day, at least in October, and I did go for a walk tonight. Not as late as last night, at 7 instead of 9, and while the sun was mostly down, it was still a bit on the warm side.
The moon was of course less impressive without the contrasting dark sky.
When I walked last night, it was after my mother was in bed, but tonight she was still up, and when I said I was going, she reminded me that I could call her if I needed her.
Next week, I turn 57 years old. For several decades, I lived alone, and talked to her perhaps once a week. Now she is concerned that I will need her during a 15-minute walk. Okay then.
Beautiful sights! I love having my daughters and grandsons close, but I worry much more about them now than I did when they were far away. Sometimes ignorance is bliss!
ReplyDeleteOkay, that interaction with your mom is priceless. Heartwarming AND hilarious.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures!
You have a fish in the sky, with a gorgeous frilly long tail.
ReplyDeleteLove the comment from your mom. It's such a universal instinct--my daughter who's visiting rolled her eyes gently last night at me when I asked if she wanted me to come with her when she drops the car off at the mechanic, which she did this morning. She's 39.
