Under The Maple Tree

Under the Maple Tree

Her Soul Finds Autumn

Delight In Decay

Leaves As Wings Take Flight

Trod Lightly on Fallen Wings

To Let Beauty Pass By

Loveliness In Old

Contentment Lies Beneath

What Hath Kissed the Sun Falls To Earth

Rest Upon Her Bed Of Gold

She Closes Her Wings

Dancing In The Bronzed Light

A quick note to say my Monday ZumbAtomics class is back on. Promised 6 or more full time students.
I have an interview tomorrow at UBC--exam invigilation.
Tonight Alex Cuba Concert!

My babies are all well. Tabs made the top-level soccer team this year and she is chuffed. Mist and Tabs playing Piano for Ballet Kelowna's Christmas House Tours. On Friday they arrive at one of the splendid Kelowna homes (all decorated for Christmas) and play Christmas songs on the grand piano as guests tour. Pippi still learning the notes on the piano so she's not ready to play just yet. Often she falls asleep on the way to her piano lessons so I let Tabs have an hour long lesson and Pippi travels back home with me.

Still a day full of applications for me (various teaching positions) :P. As soon as my applying phase quiets down, I will begin my publishing phase. Starting with my own mini-publishing house and getting all of my novels e-Book published. So excited to get back to the fiction side of life :)

***Thank-you all of my dear readers and friends for your generous support. I am so grateful for my dedicated voters from home and around the globe :)

Competition is stiff, but I can do it with your support!
