Her life and work

A gift from my garden for the New Year! May 2016 be filled with love and joy and happiness and dreams fulfilled along with courage to deal with the unexpected!

These are miracle blooms for this camellia was almost killed by the  horrid Winter 2015 !  Truly a miracle gift from Nature!

THE AFFAIR – continuing in my trend to get on the bandwagon long after a series airs… i had watched the first ep last year and really didnt like the plot, the selfishness and narcissism of the two soon-to-be cheating main characters… but then stumbled into ep 2 this past weekend – and then ep 3 and well then i found out its disappearing on sept 29th since season two starts next weekend (although really showtime?  why get rid of season one ?)

so began a binge.  am now on ep 7 but i peeked at the final episode…. in case i dont get thru before its pulled.

i really wanted to see more of Maura Tierney and Joshua Jackson’s characters… and when i read that Season Two will feature their POV as well… then I decided to catch up..

Maura Tierney was so good even in her little exposure in the first few eps… and then as I read the recaps for the rest of the series i was glad to see she had more play.

and then there was the SuperMoon lunar eclipse tonight…which i watched – going out every 20-30 minutes – it was pretty exciting tho i wished for a powerful telescope. photos not from me.
