Five Things on Friday

Untitled-156

 

I hate to wish time away, but this has been a long, tiring week, and I'm glad to be on the other side of it, with two more real estate classes behind me.

Four down, two to go. Then the BIG TEST.


 

 Untitled-1

I missed four morning walks in a row!
I felt like hugging this dirt road by Wednesday.



Untitled-10

This cedar tree and oak tree are entwined from the base on up, reminding me of a couple in love walking through the woods.




Untitled-26

I think these are the last of the mountain pinks growing along the road.
I'll miss them!




Untitled-28

I don't know what these little wild wildflowers are…or were. I'm not sure what stage I'm seeing….

…but don't they remind you of Phyllis Diller?

(Thanks to all of you who are stopping by even though I haven't had time to make my rounds lately. I promise I'll reciprocate soon!  I hope you have a great weekend!)

    This week has been especially hard for me, too. Glad to find respite here. Thanks for what you do.

    I read that as “missing four legged walks”. Crazy wild hair Phyllis – ha.

    You hang in there, my friend!
    You’re going to do just fine, I know.
    Do know what you mean about missing your morning walks though. I missed 2 of mine this week, and the day just does not feel the same. sort of like something is missing.
    Love the Phyllis Diller analogy! 🙂
    Happy Sunday to you!

    Happy Sunday, Lisa! I hope you don't have to miss any more walks. I'm already on my second again and there will be two more! Argh!

    These may be ‘small’ and ‘random’ but each one is a gem.

    I’m so happy you took the time to share at R5F this week Barb. Very sweet of you with all you have going on.
    I’m waiting for a bit of rain to pass before I head out on my walk.
    Hope this week is a good one for you.

    I'm grateful for your meme and the incentive! I felt bad not getting to visit many others, though. One of these days I'll have some free time again… I hope you have a great week!
