Praying Mantis

 Another good day yesterday.  Practicing some divination work, reviewing notes from "Walking with the Sacred" week, watching a fire in the cabin fireplace,  knitting - in general a very pleasant day!  Sending you my most recent nature photo.  This little girl was perched beside my front door.  She is all brown, not green like others I've seen.  Is this her winter coat?  Is she dead? She didn't move even when I held the camera very close.   I didn't disturb her, so don't really have answers.  What a graceful being she is - I must Google her and learn more.  But first, it's meditation time - gotten to be a lovely habit - first thing each morning I grab my warm poncho, throw it on over my pj's, dash up to the Yogatorium and turn on the heat.  Then, a cup of tea, a shower, some clothes instead of pj's, and a blog post!   A lovely way to begin a day!  May you be happy!
