I like September here. It is cooler but often still sunny. Sunset is earlier. After pneumonia, I have often gone to bed at 8:00 pm or earlier. Now I can stay up until sunset! This is from North Beach, two evenings ago. Beautiful evening.
I am feeling MUCH better on oxygen. Guess I have needed it for the last 5 weeks. It made me goofy to be hypoxic. It is nice to be able to THINK again. I wish that I had figured it out sooner. Presumably the ER doctor was not hypoxic, so I wonder why he didn’t test me. I told him my heart rate would jump to 124 when I got up and walked but he must have thought…. I have no idea. Now that I can think again, I think he should have walked me and tested my oxygen level.
Well, hopefully I have not lost too many brain cells. It’s nice to be able to find words again. They are not missing any more. Firing on all cylinders.
For Mundane Monday #199, my prompt is portal.
When has light and photography and conditions lined up for you to take a photograph that feels like a portal? Did you think of it ahead of time and wait for the perfect conditions or was it a combination of having your camera and a happy accident? Where does your portal lead?
Message your entry and I will list them next week.

Last week’s prompt was shooting the sun.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: costume.
I am having trouble posting today, Memorial Day. My mother died May 15, and there is Mother’s Day, and her birthday is May 31: always near Memorial Day. Some years the last two weeks of May are ok, some years are hard. This year is hard. But I don’t mind thinking of her or grieving.
So blue, blue with grief. If you post, it doesn’t have to be grief or a memorial. You could just do blue.
From last weeks challenge: lighting.
K.L.Allendorfer with a light that is not mundane at all, here.
Send your links for daily things that are blue… or if you are blue…. much love on this Memorial Day.
For the Daily Prompt: dim.
Here are two other low light pictures. These are taken with my phone, so low pixels in low light.
oooo I am on the wrong Daily Prompt day….ha.
For the Daily Prompt: above.
For the Daily Prompt: constant.
Wrong kind of fairy, right? No, I am thinking of the rain. We were trying to capture the ferry coming in at night in the rain with cell phones… instead we catch a glimpse of rain fairies, sliding down the lit streaks….
And constant? The ferries are constant between here and Whidby Island, leave and return, back and forth, faithful, constant.
