A beautiful crisp cool day here in Frederick Maryland. I've been running around and freely feeling like a butterfly. I've picked roses in my backyard this morning. A half dozen crimson beauties are sitting in my kitchen reminding me that each day catch a moment of beauty before it fades.
My home is a peaceful place to rest and energize. I am glad I took the brave leap to buy a home by myself. The front and backyard have fall leaves to rake up. My neighbors wave when I'm around. I sometimes have paths cross at the grocery store with smiles of delight. I am truly lucky.
