Before I went out Coal Creek this afternoon (https://jeastofeden.blogspot.com/2020/05/if-that-is-key-component.html), I finished threading the hood
drawstring through the last of the Baby Sweater Jackets I’ve been knitting up:
White jacket & jackets lineup. 6 MO (https://jeastofeden.blogspot.com/2020/04/pocketed-baby-sweater-jacket-pattern-6.html)
I had an enjoyable time for 4 hours; good
friends are a treasure ;-)
When I got home, I received a text from Bob’s
youngest sister showing how she has had the bird feeder Bob built for her (that
is a duplicate of the 1st one he made, for me) refurbished, and
perching on a ringed pergola that she can plant a climbing rose at the base of …
Rosie’s refurbished bird feeder, that is now a sided bird house. This Cross Design is Bob’s own design.
Bob would be pleased, I’m sure :-D
Meanwhile birds were gathering and enjoying
the bird feeder Bob built for me, hanging here, at the last house we will ever
have shared together – 2 things that are tangible and visual reflections of the
life I shared with Bob a lifetime ago.
Bob liked watching the birds at the feeder;
so do I:
Lesser Goldfinch
Turtledove
I always like seeing turtledoves. My Bazaar
Business Name & Logo for years was “2 Turtledoves”. Turtledoves represent
enduring love and peace of the deepest kind. Seeing a turtledove reminds me of
the blessings of Elohim, and my spirit is immediately soothed.
Seeing those weather stained things Bob lovingly
built for me had me thinking of safe ways to clean them up that would not harm
the birds that frequent them. As soon as the nesting season is over, I am going
to clean the feeder and bird house – they need cleaning.
Tomorrow while I am in town, I am going to
pick up some new pots and move these coleus’ and blooming geranium outside …
These are new plants gained in my new life - they have nothing to do with my life with Bob. It's a small step forward . I bought the coleus's last summer, and started the blooming geranium from slips snipped from mother plants.
