October 21, 2022 a thought for today, A pointed proverb is like a diamond: it emits light, and it also cuts. Hebrew Proverb

The first upload for October 20 was. “rainbow”. I was in the church sanctuary when I noticed the light coming through the stained glass window’s were leaving a rainbow of color on the columns. I decided to make a shot of the window. Then use the motion filter in Photoshop to share with you my image of rainbow colors. 

Sue got her car. She is so happy. It’s good to see her so relaxed now. Hopefully my worries will be just that .... plain worries. It is a nice looking car. She got it yesterday and has already been out for hours today. 

I have been putting some time in studying about ipads to see which one I feel will be best for me. I have also spent time this morning getting paper ready for the next part of the current paper quilling project I am working on. I started out this morning with a list of things I want to get done.

The second upload for yesterday was of an arrangement I had on my dining room table. I added a filter to give it a painterly look.

This is pizza night so I won’t be making parts of dinner in the air fryer but I decided to try my hand a making bread pudding in the fryer. I have the first batch done and they look delicious. Later, to go with the pizza I am going to make a blooming onion in the fryer.  

This has been a busy week so I am taking today on the easy side. I think I will put a little time on the newsletter though since it is due next week. 

My fist upload for today is “my fav colour”. I have lots of favorite colors...it depends on my mood , on the day and what colors are around me. Today it is a close up of my red winter coat. 

The word for today is new. Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end. Seneca.  Whatever you do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius and power and magic in it, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. What the caterpillar calls the end the rest of the world calls a butterfly, Lao Tzu. Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit, Aristotle.  Great minds have purposes others have wishes, Washington Irving. The sun is new each day. Heraclitus. The ninety and nine are with dreams, content but the hope of the world made new, is the hundredth man who is grimly bent on making those dreams come true. Edgar Allan Poe. All things must change to something new, to something strange. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. I grow old learning something new every day. Solon.

This second upload for today is my back fence. It is a shadow of my neighbor’s vinyl fence on my wooden fence. And if you look real closely there is a touch of color hidden in the shadow, a weed with a tiny bloom on top.   

This is an interesting idea. Maybe it will spread. This article is about a school here in Columbus, German Village, that is going to add a health clinic and an adult learning center to their building.  Second and third grade students at the St. Mary School wore yellow and blue plastic hard hats and smiles as the sang “Can we fix it?” with arms in the air and the shouted “yes, we can”. Then the sang “Bob the Builder” in the gym at the groundbreaking. This was the beginning of the renovations on the elementary school building. Along with the renovation of the school part of the plan is to work on a building neighboring the school that is “housing the church offices”. It will be “home” to a Nationwide Children’s Hospital school health center and Dominican Learning Center....an adult education center run by the Dominican Sisters of Peace. The church office will move to the rectory. I also learned from this article that a historic sanctuary was hit by lightning a few years ago then the Diocese of Columbus bought the Golden Hobby shop and made it the middle school building for St. Mary School. The elementary school renovations, mentioned at the beginning, will add 10,000 square feet of new class rooms, outdoor play area and more. In the health center there will be a nurse practitioner, a therapist and a nurse. 

Pizza night has rolled around again!!!

Joy
