Early Lake...

Hey Joy!! Thanks for getting the pictures of the lotus, I'm really glad you managed to do it before all the petals fell off! And I think you look great in your skirt and flipflops with purple nails ;) very cool and feminine!

This week I have kind of unwittingly set myself the challenge to get up before 5am every day. I still set the alarm for 5.45 but so far I managed to wake up by myself, before 5am, for three days running! It's summer now but the longest days have passed - it is still almost dark at 5am now, a month ago it was already bright and sunny! I love the light morning time and want to make the most of it. Today was a rest day for exercise so I went on a special early trip to sit by the lake near work... these are the pictures (I confess I didn't realise it was THIS beautiful when I was there!)

Here's a puddle from last night's rain storm... I loved the reflection of the clouds in it. It was a special time for me, to get up early and wander around the park, and sit by the lake to write, before heading into work for another crazy day... I hope to find other things to do for my early morning adventures too...
