Take Heed and a Respite

Take heed! Now that’s a phrase we don’t use anymore. It means to keenly observe. I try to do this when I walk, but it really slows my pace. The line of geese were resting on Galla Lake but one had to look closely to see them. Another old word I thought of this morning was respite. Respite is a noun meaning a short period of rest from something difficult like a long flight north. I need to take heed to be watchful of my words and actions. I’ve taken a respite from the news! 🤣

Laura sent me this picture of my 3 Norwegian Grands. They went into one of those booths that snaps pictures. Laura said she opened a coloring book at school and it was tucked inside. Maybe the phrase—pretty is as pretty does— fits it! It was several years ago.

Whoop, whoop. Amy Patsy sent me a slice of her homemade wheat Berry bread. It surely was tasty with my muscadine jelly!
