Today is a GIFT...

Tomorrow...A MYSTERY

Yesterday...ARCHIVED.

Cherish the present

Memorable moments made

Write our tomorrows

.....................................................................................

Today is a day which begs inspiration. I peek out the window and the spider webs are frozen, so well defined against the brown-black of the fence. It makes me wonder 'where are the spiders, how do they survive in the frozen tundra of the backyard'? There is not much snow, but it was 1 degree, varying between 1-20 degrees lately.

Still, the birds are out, which is a whole different story of how birds survive the cold. Ah, yes...INSPIRATION!
