Surrounded in fog, 11C 100% humidity, warm breeze.
I love walking in the fog itโs like natural camouflage. It muffles sound until you are upon it... the air feels quiet, peaceful... the smells of wood stoves, fresh cut hardwood, pine needles, cedar trees, running maple sap and rain all linger as though stuck in the fog. The warm breeze is an exciting change... the humidity is actually humid and not damp feeling like all winter๐... everything smells so fresh and renewed... lots of mud๐พ๐พ๐พ๐พ๐ I saw this small slice of sky between the fog and grey rain clouds... to me it seemed like a little slice of hope... as I rounded the corner a while later the sun peeked out and warmed my back.... so no matter how bleak my mood was into the fog I came out in the sun feeling refreshed and renewed.... โ๏ธ๐ฆ
Hope everyone can change their mindset today even if u start off in a pre meltdown state....๐ข๐๐๐โบ๏ธ

Amazing photo and I love your description of the nature you were emerged in. Iโve been constantly up and down in mood itโs exhausting but my times out gardening was the best part of my day.
Yes it is... I like being able to be invisible like but being invisible or not seen/noticed is not good... weird how variations of something make all the difference. I like the feeling of warm rain... Iโm not a fan of cold rain but like frozen rain (snow)....๐
Love it..have had moments when in a minute a rainbow came out by the time I found only half was left. Half a rainbow is better than none in a photo but I still hold the memory of the entire whole rainbow .๐๐
I canโt recall if Iโve seen a full rainbow before ... so cool to imagine... would love to see one right now . Here it just stopped raining, sun is out and very windy.
Yes it is great to catch the rainbow with all colours. We can take photos from the windows which saves getting wet. The images are our crocks of good to look at when we have time.
Here it is dark . Curtains are shut. We are watching a bald eagle with huge wingspan fishing in the sea on TV. You have the day ahead. Our day is soon over but we are pleased to be here enjoying our family and our lives. Every day is precious.
You can't be invisible and be able to gain attention . Invisibility is escape. You have the best of both worlds now you can be here and now and create scenes to help us find the silver lining.
Turning off the news helps as it is constant misery. Gardening does help. Did some knitting today not so bad as I thought. Feel ok when busy. How were kids?
Ha ha am knitting a sweater on a knitting machine. It is so relaxing. Am improving. Think it will look ok. Have all sorts of wool I dream of making toys with but never have time. A relative bought machine on e Bay and it is fine with a bit of attention.
I go at for a while then put it down ... will finish it eventually... maybe I will be able to turn it back into a scarf... an ugly one but a scarf none the less.๐๐
Get on with that dog blanket. There's a big knitting world with Deramores with info on knitting groups and patterns in your country. I could spend days on this wool website with the textures and colours .
I learned how to knit when I was young but then took it back up when doctor told me to get a hobby... lol learned by watching you-tube... itโs not a hobby I prefer... causes stress in a way for me. ๐คช
Good you can stay busy. Thanks for asking- the kids are as energetic as ususl and not at all afraid of whatโs going on and are good when I have educational lessons with them.
I agree staying away from news as long as we know whatโs going on,... no need to hear it over and over.
A machine knit sweater. I turned a mistake in the neckline as a feature . Will each arm be the same length and width. The mystery knit will be tried soon much to the north of hubby if it does not fit. I did eat some extra biscuits.๐
Not really I did a knitting course twenty years ago or more but I had sight and sinus and incoordination . My knitting attempts were poor. However I did another online course sending my samples back. I earned a certificate. Was well chuffed. Now it is fun to meet around not worried by what others may think.
Do dogs run beside you when you ride ? Some dogs run off and then they off into the undergrowth. Little sausage dog is good at rushing off and we have to watch gates being shut. Love the photo and you have cracked it as you are seeing how the silver lining can be found in light and share. I find painting lighter colours helps me feel serene. Am off to my knitting now.
What even when you are riding. Are they pulling a cart beside the horse๐๐๐๐
You have changed my mindset..the changing weather is a source of fascination but not keen on mist. We get it from the sea and the apple blossom won't set. This means a poor apple crop. Love the photo tho.
When the apple trees are in blossom they are white with pink buds the smell is fresh the grass may be soggy if it has rained. You would love our country with raining cats tails and streaks. We have dark thunderous clouds green sea and rollers. We stay in rather than drive to a storm . We must be getting older.
I'm sorry and perhaps I'm the only one but, in the interest of transparency and sharing my true feelings, like everyone should do in this forum, the smiley faces are immensely irritating as is the "get outside" whimsical crock of donkey excrement. Nevertheless, good for you that this helps, I only wish I had that level of appreciation and denial.
Thank you for sharing. ๐ I am sorry you find smiley faces irritating but considering text does not allow for inflection or tone of voice to be conveyed clearly I find emoticons or emojis allows this to be accomplished.
In the spirit of full transparency and all i think you can be honest without purposeful malice about a method that I and many others utilize to distract and change our mindset from negative to positive. If you think the motivational inspired messaging to be what was that โknowledge nuggetโ you implored?!? Oh yes crock of donkey excrement and lack appreciation & denial of everyone๐those that live in glass houses and all that apparently are not judgemental, have compassion, want to help people.... what a wonderful island this is... your bio is quite explicitly descriptive but perhaps pretty much like your own knowledge nugget? Ya know eh? The cart full of the byproduct of a donkey who eats oats and hay? ๐ฉ
I can be supportive to you and excuse your mean spirited petty rude unsupportive negative and just downright douchecanoe blurting because unlike you I aspire to lead the most remarkable positive and full life possible. I find joy in simple things because they are the most meaningful, daily accomplishments I achieve everyday I am experiencing reduced pain are milestones for me. I appreciate every moment now as I spent too long in the dark pit of my own making. Itโs too bad you canโt see what freedom look likes thru my eyes... itโs really sad you are unable to see what positivity looks like as you are blinded in your own denial that you are projecting onto everyone here trying to make us doubt our positive vibes... that is cruel and such a 180 again to your bio and the entire premise of this site you know the island?! I am sorry you feel this way... guess my walk in the fog or horse ride thru the fog does not compare to an unremarkable jog alone iyo.
Guess the air in your world smells pretty sour, sulphurous, malodorous and pretty damp...๐๐คจ
I really hope you feel happier soon - perhaps since everything I have listed does not work for u although I doubt you have tried it (armchair critic) how about you share your method .... being that you are an expert at helping people and not judgemental at all ๐๐
Please do explain with clarity how I and everyone else is in denial... ๐คจ
Smilies might seem mundane and annoying but many people like to communicate in shorthand . Facial expressions in emojis express our moods and are shortcut methods if we don't want to write. Guess when you start a post people will respond differently as they can understand how you feel and smilies may be inappropriate. Will look out for your posts.
