Stripes – a photo challenge with Hugh

FlorenceT

This is for Hugh's Weekly Photo Challenge #9. This stripey 'thing' is crucial to my existence. Seriously. For one who is wary of the 'elements', this has come to my aid on many occasions.

Here's my Christmas tree... all the way from Down Under to be part of Colleen at Silver Threading's Christmas Trees Around the World.

FlorenceT

Silver Threading's Writer's Quote Wednesday  Guided by Silver Threading's quote about the self of a writer, this one by Rainer Maria Rilke (an Austrian poet and novelist) caught my eye... and my heart and soul.

FlorenceT

This is what is on top of my Christmas tree this year.  It's a family tradition to have a star, to shine the way for the year ahead.  It is of course crucial to the nativity story, right? 🙂 And by posting this, I am helping Angela and Hugh raise up to £250 for charity.… Continue reading Here’s what’s on Top of my Christmas Tree – what’s on Yours?
