Lazy leaf or a beach ‘bum’?
Drifting to the end of Verena’s Festival of leaves. You have one more week for sharing. Join Cate if you have six words spare.
Have a great week, and don’t get stressed over Christmas. It’ll come and it’ll go.

Wishing you a calm holiday season, Jo. I no longer get stressed over Christmas, because I decided to stop participating in the consumerism. (Except for good food and drink. :D)Keeps me out of the shops/malls. I give better gifts on birthdays instead.

It’s hard work for most of us. It’ll be a sad one this year, since Dad died, Julie, but we’ll remember him. And smile 🙂

Ugh. Sciatica is painful. Been there… ice, ice ….worked for me. And rest of course.
Love the leaf photo. Such drama in a leaf!

I’ve tried the opposite- heat. Seemed preferable, with my natural inclinations to warmth, Peta 🙂 🙂 It’s better by far than it was but my knee is now being naughty. I don’t know- these bodies with a mind of their own! 🙂

Hope you feel better soon. We were living in Nicaragua at the time and the ice packs, bed rest and massage did the trick.

You have my deepest empathy with the sciatica – I had it during a 3000k trip in the car and seriously just wanted to jump out at a great speed. I love the leaf – flat out and enjoying the beach which is my idea of a great time xxxx

I’d rather be a leaf than a beach ball…. I think, Dianne! Thanks for the sympathy 🙂

The sciatica comment confused me at first and had me re-reading the post wondering how I’d missed the reference! Anyway, sorry to hear you’ve been suffering from it – take it easy, won’t you? I enjoyed your post, by the way. 🙂

Jo I just read over with Badfish that you have your feet up and not for the right reasons. Do take care and sending positive healing energy your way.

Thanks, darlin. 🙂 This ageing process can be a pain. Did you like the’maple’ leaf? I thought it had a distinctly jaunty Canada air. 🙂
