1052. blue supermoon

blue supermoon

once in a blue moon

isn’t blue

Last night’s moon was a blue supermoon, but it wasn’t blue! Here’s the scoop: 

A blue moon means two full moons in a single month, though they rarely are really blue. A supermoon happens when it’s exceptionally close to the Earth. Last night it was 222,043 miles. Once in a blue moon means a rare but nonetheless recurring event. A blue supermoon occurs once in a blue moon, the next one expected in 2037.

Last night’s moon wasn’t blue but it was especially big and bright and beautiful—though my picture doesn’t do it justice. A shout out to Liz, who told me last night to go outside and check out the moon.🤗

1051. killing time

laid out 

on the grass together—

we’re they lovers?

Killing time—what a strange expression, but there I was killing time waiting for my appointment, like I had all the time in the world to amble along, just walking leisurely while looking around at the row of old stone houses with their tiny gardens brimming with flowers, lining the sidewalk. It was pleasant. Then I saw two sunflowers in the middle of a lawn, stems carefully cut, laid down on the grass together side by side in a tender embrace. I paused a long while and wondered….who did this? what does it mean?  I looked at my watch. It was time to go. Everything comes to an end.

1050. just think

umm sushi…

sushi, pickled ginger, wasabi yum—

hey, there’s Elmo!

 

Walking around the neighborhood, preoccupied with thoughts of what to eat for lunch and thinking of sushi—yess!….sushi with pickled ginger and wasabi—umm…yum!😋 I heard a giggle and looked up….and there he was: Elmo! 

Just think, you don’t even have to ask, just think and ye shall receive. Thoughts are powerful! By the way, in case you’re not a Muppets fan and you didn’t know, Elmo’s favorite food is wasabi!
