Simple Pleasures

Collages1

- Bus drivers waving to each otheras they drive past one another

- Looking into people's living rooms at night before they have closed their curtains.  I love the glimpses of inside life

 -Early mornings, before everyone else is up. Writing, looking, being

- The sun...its a bit like a long lost friend when it does appear.

- Finding a new blog... Social history at its finest.

- My stove top percolator.  Goodness that is some good coffee

- Wednesdays.  Work week over (for the most part), let the fun begin.

- Finding new uses for things.

- A good book and or some good yarn.  Escapism at its finest

- Being woken up to, "mama, ba la de ho ha, choo choo. yes."
