Jane at Levant: Q is for Question...?

Q is for Question...?

Q is for Question - why not pop across to ABC Wednesday to find more letter Q's -

Is there any such thing as a typical day ? I think not ! - they say life is what you make it and I truly believe that statement.
First surprise of the day - a quick peep through the blinds - hoping for a frosty morning - ahh! - a foggy morning !- do I shelve the planned photo shoot ? no way! it's just another change of plan on a typical day!

Foggy day pics on the dog walk

These spiders webs would be pretty much invisible on a sunny day

Foggy day garden pics - above my tree lupin and rain drops - this plant has just had its first summer - I hope it survives the winter- I have taken some seeds to make sure- it is a lovely pale yellow.

This hardy fuschia - adds brilliant colour on a dismal day - this is quite a well established plantand it flowers well into the autumn

What is your typical day? what ever it is enjoy!

Isn't that spider's web fabulous! We've had our first frost, Saturday night - time to get the dahlia's up.

Typical day? Not today for certain.
We get quite a bit of fog and mists down here in the Thames valley, and..
today has been a real grey, damp and miserable one for sure.
I thought it too miserable for photographs, but you have proved me wrong. Well done.
Cheers.....B

I'm always a sucker for the beaded water effect.

I love the water droplets you photographed. I am on a quest for beautiful frost too. Gotta make the best of what the weather offers us though. I see you did with the droplets. :)

I don't think there's such a thing as a typical day for me... but a walk with the camera sounds a good way to spend it.

Glad you took advantage of the foggy day. Here, if it's foggy in the morning, you can almost guarantee sunshine by the afternoon. Love your photos.

FAIRY -LED

The fairy people flouted me,
Mocked me ,shouted me
They chased me down the dreamy hill and beat me with a wand
Within the wood they found me ,put spells on me and bound me
And left me at the edge of day in John the miller's pond
Beneath the eerie starlight;
Their hair shone curd -white
Their bodies were all twisted like a lichened apple tree
Feather -light and swift they moved,
And never one they loved,
For all were full of dreams and dark designs on me.

With noise of leafy singing
And white wands swinging
They marched away amid the grass that swayed to let them through.
Between the the yellow tansies
Their eyes,like purple pansies,
Peered back on me before they passed all trackless in the dew.

Mary Webb - from the Spring of Joy

Three softly curved white sepals veined with light,

Three green-lined petals,guarding frugal gold,

And all so strong to fold or to unfold!

Snow thunders from the bending pines.How slight

This frail,sheathed stem! Yet all unbent it springs,

So swift in stoopings and recoverings.

In the pale sunshine,with frail wings unfurled,

Comes to the bending snowdrop the first bee.

She gives her winter honey prudently;

And faint with travel in a bitter world,

The bee makes music, tentative and low,

And spring awakes and laughs across the snow.

Mary Webb

Short Jokes of the day

Dress Code.

It is advised that you come to work dressed according to your salary. If we see you wearing Prada shoes and carrying a Gucci bag, we assume you are doing well financially and therefore do not need a raise. If you dress poorly, you need to learn to manage your money better, so that you buy nicer clothes, and therefore you do not need a raise. If you dress just right, you are right where you need to be and therefore you do not need a raise.

Sick Days

We will no longer accept a doctor's statement as proof of sickness. If you are able to go to the doctor, you are able to come to work.

Personal Days

Each employee will receive 104 personal days a year. They are called Saturday & Sunday.

Toilet Use
Entirely too much time is being spent in the toilet. There is now a strict three-minute time limit in the stalls. At the end of three minutes, an alarm will sound, the toilet paper roll will retract, the stall door will open, and a picture will be taken. After your second offence, your picture will be posted on the company bulletin board under the "Chronic Offenders category". Anyone caught smiling in the picture will be sanctioned under the company's mental health policy.
Lunch Break
Skinny people get 30 minutes for lunch, as they need to eat more, so that they can look healthy. Normal size people get 15 minutes for lunch to get a balanced meal to maintain their average figure. Chubby people get 5 minutes for lunch, because that's all the time needed to drink a Slim-Fast.
