Textured is the theme for this week’s WordPress Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge. Boy, that’s a mouthful. Not the textured part. The WordPress, etc., etc. I could use that to fill up some space when I’m doing my morning pages.

It has been damp and dark in the woods the past few days. The grayness of the clouds overhead lets in very little light where the canopy of trees is thickest. The forest is still verdant and what light there is has taken on the green shades of the foliage on the trees, the mosses, and the lush undergrowth.

September is National Yoga Month here in the U.S. I read somewhere that the idea is going global so perhaps it will be changed to World Yoga Month.

Cheeky
I woke up this morning feeling bleh. It has not been a good week health-wise. I had some tummy troubles for about 24 hours earlier in the week, and now I seem to be catching the cold that is going around these parts.
Bleh.

Looking forward
Several posts ago (maybe more than several), Kathy, the fabulous woman who inspired me to take on the challenge of getting outside every single day for a year, asked in the comments if I’d given any thought to what I was going to do when this commitment ended. I’ve gotten behind in answering comments and didn’t answer her question there, but I have been giving it a lot of thought since she asked. Those of you who have been blogging for a while understand that giving something in the comments a lot of thought often means a blog post because it’s a) just too long to answer in the comments section, and b) too good to pass up when you get an idea for a blog post. When you are blogging every single blessed day, an idea for a blog post is a gift from the gods.

Sundays are usually about signage here on the Bogs blog, but today I’ve been playing with sunflowers and find them much more interesting than any of the signs I’ve photographed recently.
