My Guideposts - Week31


Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass on a summer day listening to the murmur of water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is hardly a waste of time.

~John Lubbock

Take time to enjoy the beauty.

With thanks to Tracey for inspiring me (and others) to incorporate a weekly quote into my life.

  5. Beautiful. School started and I am LOVING IT! I don't know if I will have a lot of rest with a 4 yr. old and 1 yr. old during the day, but the noise level has gone down considerably :)

  6. Dear Pogonip, this post is so lovely and inspiring!!!

    I've been here for half an hour and enjoyed myself immensely! I've left messages on some of your older posts. Do you get email notification? If you don't, hmmm, the last comment was, I think, on the flash mob. I read farther back than that but I think that was my last comment.

    Anyhoo, thanks for the lovely smiles and inspiration!

    Love, Katy xo

  7. Oh, I so agree with this quote!

    What a sweet place you have here~
    I have perused several of your posts and enjoyed each one.

    Very cute pup and neat hens too! I am enjoying eggs from my daughter who has 6 that are now producing. The first eggs were itty-bitty ones like the one on your fridge door. They're bigger now.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving your comment! So nice meeting you.

    Kindly, ldh
