Walk to Remember
As you may know, I have been focusing on memory issues such as remembering, forgetting, mindfulness, and memory retention as a way to understand my actions lately. I’ve had a string of forgetting moments and last week was another doosey. I’ll post that one next time.
For now – I try to walk daily in new areas as a way to stay awake mentally and keep my brain from going into ‘zone mode.’
This morning, before the sun was up – I was in my yard with a rake knocking snow off bushes, trees, plants and hauling (with all my might) a huge branch that broke during the night.
After a hot cup of tea to warm me up … I patiently waited for the sun to come up so I could walk and take some photos. Now, as I write this at 4 pm the lawns are littered with gold, green and red leaves. The snow is almost all melted. The images I took this morning are all that’s left. Here’s my gift to you…Enjoy!

Mine is a Canon point and shoot type. I literally use my cameras to death – unless I lose them first. Ha, sad but true!

Maggie, I always miss this time of tear. The in between Autumn/winter. The beautiful leaves, now on the ground. Your photos are beautiful!

Thanks! It’s strange to live in an area where I am surrounded by trees instead of sky. The light is all different than is used to be – and the ground is littered with leaves of all colors, shapes and species! Truly lovely.

I have Fibromyalgia and that can affect my memory. I find this quite scary but I just have to accept it, make lists, write notes and try to remember what I can.
