Today is TT and I’m late to the party … but as it turns out, it’s a good thing.
When I read Kim’s post I was so struck by her words “something good is about to happen” …
Those words! So full of promise, anticipation, excitement.
Something good is about to happen!
I don’t really know what she is referring to, but that doesn’t matter. It’s not the point. If I saw these words on my bathroom mirror every morning I’d be so excited to start the day wondering what it could be … Perhaps it’s only that …
- it’s a most beautiful summer day here
- the echinops in my garden are glorious
- I found the best tools and cleaners for my windows which are now beyond sparkling
- I spent over 30 minutes organizing LR and now my presets are in order
- I thought of a great new idea for an (autumn) wreath
- and on and on … who knows? the day is not over.
For today’s image I used kk_melancholy and the font is Arsenale White on Overlay Blend Mode
Don’t forget! tomorrow is “app” happy wednesday!!

Beautiful airy image. Would love to know what you have discovered in regard to cleaning your windows. The summer has taken a real toll on mine.

Hi Susan,
Thanks for dropping by! For my windows I simply invested in a heavy-duty combination washer/squeegee on a long pole so I can reach my windows from the ground. I used one part Windex with one part filtered water for the cleaner. Before I was using an old squeegee and some Mr. Clean, ammonia, and water … it wasn’t working!

Well, I was excited when I read Kim’s post- and even more when I read yours! And what a lot you’ve accomplished- I love that feeling! I just composed my app-happy post and caught up on BeStill52 (sort of), so am feeling pretty good too. I’ll be back tomorrow. . .

I love the slight hint of color, I love these little balls of joy. I photographed these at the Lavender festival in Portland, they just make me happy. Love your image.
