I've been listening to NPR this morning, and the stories about Tim Piazza, Venezuela, the Dallas police shooting, "fake news", climate change, and Florence have me blinking back tears. There is bad news every day, but maybe all the news is weighing heavier on my heart than usual because it's September 11th. Whatever the reason, it can't be all bad news all the time, so I'm sharing a few rainbow photos from back before we had rain every day.
Please ignore the table that I should have wiped off and windows that should be washed. I'm going to look for some positive things today, and I hope you have a chance to do the same. :-)
Beautiful, Bonny! And, much needed today... you are so right, it just can't be all bad news! It gets so overwhelming. (Although, I also recommend coloring! It just sparks joy in my heart!)
ReplyDeleteWhat a welcome post, Bonny - thank you! and I LOVE your rainbow maker ... in the shape of a heart :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the random rainbows!
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome! With all the rain we're getting on the east coast, I'm hoping to see some rainbows in the sky, but for now, rainbows in my kitchen will do.
DeleteOn the evening of September 11th 2001 we saw a big rainbow right over our Town Common. It was an especially welcome sight that day and your photos are a lovely reminder of it.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOh, Bonny, rain for days will ruin anyone's mood, and then along comes Sept. 11th. I need to get upbeat, however, since today is my stepson's birthday. He and DIL are coming over for dinner, so there will be merriment at my house, and it will be most welcome!
ReplyDeleteThank-you for those beautiful rainbows and I'm happy to see you were walking around taking pictures of beauty rather than wiping the table or washing the windows! I hope you sat and knit next! :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your rainbows. I have one more for you. 9 years ago today I had a heart valve replacement and I consider this my re-birthday. Let's celebrate!
ReplyDeleteSo nice Bonny - thank you (of course, all I can think of is "Nothing Says Screw You Like a Rainbow" - LOL)
ReplyDeleteRainbows are always such a welcome surprise -- and especially in your house. And especially when thing look bleak. Thanks for reminding all of us to look for the good things. XO
ReplyDeletePS. You're supposed to wash windows??????
ReplyDeletebeautiful prism colors! I need to see some rainbows :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the ray of sunshine and prisms with rainbows. I took a walk on a beautiful coolish September morning here to remember despite the news, the sun came up.
ReplyDeleteNothing says "screw the news" like a rainbow!!!
ReplyDeleteYep, there are days like that.
ReplyDeleteAnd looking for rainbows, anywhere, is good.
