Saturday at The Hon House



Come spend a day at Hon House with me. Today would be a good day. It was fall-like but beautiful.  It was one of those cool, crisp autumn days when I like to throw the windows open and watch the curtains billowing in the breeze. 
I caught up on my favorite tv shows that I tape (Project Runway and Top Chef Las Vegas.  After a leisurely breakfast, I did a ton of laundry and took a walk around the yard.
There was lots in the backyard to make me smile.  Even the flowers seemed to be saying "Morning, Glory" to this Glory Bee.
The bay grass is tall and poofy now with it's lovely crowns.  Fall flowers are blooming or on the way.  Even the Rosemary is looking good.  I stopped to cut some to add to my potatoes and pork chops.

I noticed that the pond has a lovely yellow flower on the water lily and that a few of the trumpet vine flowers remain.


And in between the work and the wak and the tv, I took time to enjoy my new computer
and managed to chill with the boys.

September 1 sneaked up on me and I had some commitments for posting some prayer requests, but once that was done, I uninstalled Facebook (my primary Social Media) form my phone. I can pretty well ignore Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, LinkedIn and the like but Facebook is my constant itch that I have to keep scratching. I came to the realization that I primarily use Facebook to feed my desire for approbation.  Don't we all want to be admired and respected?  Don't we often want to be right, to have a forum where others are agreeing with our brilliance?  LOL I'm guilty. I also realize the other downside of social media for me and that's all the political vitriol.  As much as I don't get sucked into it, as much as I scroll past...
