The colours
Of the old town
Will turn
An upside frown
Into a huge smile
When staying a while
In the historic city
Of Porvoo

“Why does February feel like one big Tuesday?” Todd Stocker
Tuesday, 17th of November
Today, Tuesday
Really early morning
I woke up
Showered
Today, home office day
Looked out the window
It was pouring and dark
Snapped a few pics
Worked some more
Had a snack break
It was still raining
Snapped a few pics
Worked some more
Had a coffee break
The weather cleared
Snapped a few pics
Working day ended
Drove to water aerobics
The sun was setting
Painting the sky red
Odd, it would show up
A little before disappearing
Snapped a few pics
Drove back home
Posted some blogs
Went to sleep
Dreaming of tomorrow
It will be Wednesday…
Posted in A Quote a Week Tuesday
“I quote others only in order the better to express myself” Michel de Montaigne, The Complete Essays
Quote a Week Tuesday, 2015-11-17
For today’s quote, I actually have two for the price of one. And with my personal twist of course 😛
Usually it is nice to get feedback, especially the positive kind. Unfortunately sometimes (read more often than usual) you get feedback or opinions from people, who need to voice their own point of view for anything and everything.
For myself, a “like” is sufficient and indicates someone enjoyed your offering. If you have something valuable to add, then make a comment, hopefully the positive kind. But in this writer’s opinion, if you don’t like what you hear, read or see, just move along 😉
“If you don’t have anything nice to say, move along”
“Opinions are like voids in the derrière; everyone has one”
Keep calm and keep on quoting!

Photo challenge for PhoTrabloggers Mundane Monday
“This is a challenge created to find beauty in almost everything. The challenge is simple : find beauty in everyday mundane things, capture the beauty and upload the photographs.”
MUNDANE MONDAY CHALLENGE #33
“Our daily lives are so mundane, we get taken over by what is immediately in front of us and we don’t see beyond that” Benedict Cumberbatch
Phone Home?
A dialer device
From a different era
Had to suffice
Let me tell ya
An analog connection
No visual perception
No texting
Sure no sexting
Just a calling machine
The only mean
For ancient times
But oh how time flies
Now we all have
A mobile device
Que Sera, Sera

MUNDANE MONDAY CHALLENGE #33
“Creativity is piercing the mundane to find the marvelous” Bill Moyers
High Voltage
Danger, Danger, beware
Touch it if you dare
You may end up a flare
And into the white light stare

“I didn’t like mundane life” Jeanne Calment
AC/DC
Electric current
Quite transparent
Lost without it
The modern world
In chaos would hurl
In one big swirl
