What things stay the same

It isn't a question - what things stay the same.  Here's more about me, recently.  My garden is small but was awesome this year.  I love gardening.  I gave away more than 100 tomatoes to neighbours and friends and I still have lots, green ones in brown paper should ripen a few at a time til Christmas!  I spent time in the garden every day, gave away zucs, herbs, mixed lettuce, peppers, and more - and still I had plenty for my own fridge.  I should post some pics.  My flowers are amazingly huge right now, no frost by the house yet, although my dahlias froze on Sunday.  They were massive plants and many red blooms. 

The days are golden.  Birds sing long drawn out high songs of Autumn.  Quail rustle in the leaves and I look that way, watching for a bear.  My neighbour's cat makes a high arched pounce in tall grass and then walks to the clearing with a mouse for me.  Ducks make ripples in their wake on the still lake.  I have many interests, many about nature.  Nature is a song, a rhythm, and maybe fractals upon fractals all in harmony.  It's art and science and magic all in one.

The moon is lovely outside my window, a bright big crescent.  My house is always clean - a bit of a clean freak I am.  I feel good.  Every night I have a shower and sit down with a big bowl of fruit to watch my recorded tv programs, usually after 10 pm, fireplace on.  I get sleepy after midnight, then I go get some shut eye, as the Westerners say, now with my warmed thermal blanket.  I've always been a night person.  I dig it. Right now my bowl of fruit is going to be watermelon, pears and grapes, local Bartlett pears and Coronation grapes, so fragrant from the vines near my house.  I have my friends, my family.

Would I like you to be with me sometime, my fantasy lover?  Yes, on your terms, when you are ready.  I'm not going to go find someone online...I'm too content and that would make me way too nervous.  I like calm and peace now.  I love my life and wouldn't mind to see a new phase, but it will happen as a tide, a river, or a season, naturally and on time.
