Time Flies - walking and procrastinating

It seems the days are drifting by and I'm in bed before I even think about posting. I've been in one of my blah moods the last few days. Enough said. I'm trying to keep upbeat and focus on the good in the world. Had a nice video chat with daughter and Baby A. She is so funny. She waved to me, chatted on, and today even blew me a kiss! Wow, that's something new! She also has another two teeth coming in! So much changes with her in so little time!

I've been going out walking each day. Being in nature gives me time to reset and just enjoy my surroundings. It's quiet after the first morning burst. I go early and sit by the beavers' lodge. They know winter is coming and it seems that each day there are more logs and branches by the lodge. Throughout the week they have been busy first thing bringing things back to the lodge. They seem to stick goodies below the water that will be easy to reach and feed on when the lake starts to ice over. There are plenty of geese staying over at the lake at night and, first thing in the morning, they start to honk and fly away in flocks. It is so noisy there in the morning!

After that first burst, when the sun comes up, things seem to be quiet. There aren't too many birds around right now, though we were lucky enough to see a Hooded Merganser at the lake earlier in the week. I've got so many photos to sort through!

Behind the Beavers' Lodge

I walked again this morning, just by myself. It was really quite peaceful. The beavers were out in force, several of them around the lodge. I stood and watched one eating for ages. They didn't seem bothered by me at all. It's strange as some seem bothered when I'm near, others couldn't care less. 

I came home and didn't do much of anything. I have been working on photos on the computer. While I was in Minnesota I did some photos for daughter, son-in-law and Baby A. I have to look through them, do some basic edits and send them back to them. I don't take a lot of people photos. I did a couple of maternity shoots for them that turned out okay. Baby A did not want to cooperate this time so I'm hoping we got at least a few useable ones!

My mind has been wandering too. I need to do some more decluttering but I'm stuck on where to start - again! Once I jump in I get along okay. I guess I just need to take a leap and start somewhere. I want something a little more...well, less. 

Hopefully back tomorrow!
