Searching For the Pretty.....

Autumn is here and Wisconsin trees boast some beautiful golds/oranges/reds.....and they are pretty. But it also announces the arrival of colder weather and I am just not ready for inside time this year. The drumbeat of political ads, the COVID statistics every day all day.....I can feel my mood darkening. I remind myself that we are two of the fortunate ones....retired, living in a mortgage-free condo, food in the cupboard, adult kids doing well, grandsons all healthy. I remind myself we will get through this and to the other side where COVID is just part of our world and we've learned to live with it.

But still......it's hard to find the positive in my every-day-stay-socially-distant life. But driving down the highway toward Milwaukee yesterday afternoon I was smacked in the face with beauty.



I just had to look up. Mother Nature putting on a display.....and she brightened my day as she did so. I will find the positive.....I just have to look a little harder.
