Another morning of not knowing what I was going to talk about. I haven't been on a walk in over a week due to recovery from my 10K, then my slight muscle injury and then more recovery. Really, I'm not much of an athlete at all any more. So sad, I used to be. I spent the entire weekend sitting in my sewing/office/junk room trying to carve a path to the closet. It was not a fun process. I'm really trying to simplify, but it's not an easy trick. You know, pick up a pile of stuff and go through things one by one. Wrestle with myself on whether I need it or not. I am a complete pack rat, to say the least, and ask anybody - cleaning is NOT my forte. I did make a dent though!
So, this morning I was itching to get out and get some fresh air and I was counting on my walk to inspire a subject and...TA DAH!!!!...it did. I truly belong outside.
After the wonderful rains the ground is all wet and little shoots are already starting to push through the dirt. I stumbled across a little patch of mushrooms all cute and interesting. I am fascinated by the little fungi. They come in such a variety of shapes and sizes. And they taste good, too. I also like moss and lichen. They are so green.
