#153 Baggage

The very basic necessities I carry in my handbag. My husband doesn’t call it a backpack for nothing. That’s the baggage I’ll deliberately carry into the new year.

Sick Leave

I don’t understand

how the world can

go on

merrily

without me.

#152 Silver Wind

This still life looks somewhat creepy after I applied the eponymous post-editing filter.

#151 Dew

Dew is possibly the only benefit of getting up early.

Whatsup

Ella is checking out what’s up. Is she satisfied or disappointed that it’s just me?

#150 Gables

The yellow house with the white gables. Has anyone written this yet? I only know of The House of the Seven Gables and The House with the Green Shutters. Also The Fall of the House of Usher. (Do I speak like an EngLit professional? You got me.)

#149 Clover

To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee.

#148 Remains

This is what remains of autumn – not much.

Human

She was not a respectable married woman but fully a human being.

#147 Christmas Sky

The Christmas sky is actually grey, so I tinted it blue.
