Flowers On Tuesday

 

By Patricia

 

Everyone that knows me, knows I love flowers. There is just something in the natural beauty of them that makes me very happy.

I know some people think they are a waste of money, but not me. And as I have said before, you really can find flowers that don't cost a fortune if you just look for them. Today I am craving flowers, but going to buy them is just not on my to-do list right now.

So I'm sending these to myself here on my blog, just because it's Tuesday. And they didn't cost me a dime.

Have a wonderful Tuesday everyone!

Visiting The World As The Armchair Traveler

By Patricia

Have you heard of the term 'Armchair Traveler'? It means someone who reads about traveling, buys books about traveling, and dreams about traveling, but actually doesn't go anywhere.
Yeah, that's me.

When I was raising my five children, there wasn't the time or money to travel. Now that they are all grown, I have the time, but not the money. But that doesn't stop me from dreaming about places I have always longed to visit.
Paris has always topped my list, along with London and Rome. Europe calls to me, and someday I hope to answer back!!

Meanwhile, it is fun to visit the shops around the Seattle area where I live that cater to travelers or wannabe travelers like me. I love browsing through the books and luggage and clothes and gadgets that are made for traveling.
I can't wait to see all the places I want to visit, even if for now, the view is only from my chair.
