It’s time for Pick a Word from Paula @ Lost in Translation. Somewhat tricky and I did look for inspiration from other bloggers! I’ve tried to come up with something different.
Angular Transience Trail Shadow Towering
I had some fun trying to put the words together!
I wish I was more Angular, but the Transience of my thoughts leave room for a Trail of happy ones, not leaving a Shadow on my life of Towering blessings.

It’s time again for some more squares for Becky’s Squaresrenew and as the theme involves moving on or forward I thought I would show some clocks.
People always tend to say time goes more quickly when you’re older, I suppose it must feel like that over a certain age, but when you’re young time takes forever if you are waiting for Christmas or a birthday. Being older you don’t want to rush these things but instead savour the days.

Just a few clocks retrieved from my archives, it’s not always the clock I’m photographing but there is always one there!
If you were not to set an alarm clock, would you sleep past it? If the answer is yes, then there is clearly more sleep that is needed asks Matthew Walker.
For me the answer is yes! My dear hubby says this is not possible because I sleep so well and should not need more sleep, but if I wake up before my alarm would be due to go off then I would fall right back to sleep way past my alarm if it wasn’t set.
Something different today, I’m trying for a double dip challenge inspired by Marsha and Cee. Starting with a quote and seeing if I can link a photo!
“I Have No Limits, I Cannot be Contained Because I am the Container” Jim Carey
Scotland – October (Autumn)
“The body is but a vessel to carry the soul. A container ship to protect it, as it passes through the world” Danielle Montgomery

I came across the following when researching quotes for this challenge, which really resonated with me.
“I Don’t Want My Legacy to be Storage Containers of Stuff” Janet M. Taylor
It brought home to me the amount of containers I have in my house. Storage chests, cupboards, drawers and in those more boxes of treasures. Sooner or later I will have to sell, give or throwaway so many things. Just recently in the UK, my brother did one last look around the loft and came down with all of our old books and school reports and exercise books. My parents, especially my Dad could never throw anything away. There’s always that thought “this might be useful one day”.
Are you a hoarder or a thrower/giver?
Many thanks to Cee (CFFC) and Marsha (WQ) for always coming up with such interesting challenges.
