LOOKING UP AND DOWN

Joining in (late again!) with my friend HELENA'S weekly photographic meme LOOKING UP AND DOWN

 LOOKING UP

Not a bad crop of oranges for a little orange tree which , last year, I was sure was about to die! They will  start to turn orange in the next few weeks and probably be ready for eating in November.

LOOKING DOWN


This hibiscus rose is one of those freaks of nature..last year the flower was yellow...this year it has been this colour?!

I am having an ENTIRE day at home today...I made the decision this morning that I just wanted  needed to have a day to get round all the little  chores that are beginning to annoy me, and to have some 'me' time...do you ever have days like that?

Hope you have some 'you' time planned for the coming weekend!

thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you

    Fresh oranges in November? Sounds lovely! I'm about to set off on a round of messages. I have days like yours too, but today I decided to get lots of little outside jobs down

    Oh I wish I had some "me" time planned. Actually, Doug and I have some "us" time planned on Sunday so I suppose that's just as good. Loved your up/down photos!
