Always a nice day trip from Rochester: #winetasting in the #fingerlakes. Here, we went to three #senecalake #wineries. Highlights at the link in my bio.

Gorgeous day, so I took a little #roadtrip to the #flx to taste new-release #pinotnoir from @sixeightycellars The 2021(left) is light and bright with cherry/berry flavors, great for spring. The 2022 is medium-bodied, a litlle more intense with cherry to red berry to some spice on the finish. The new tasting room is beautiful, sitting above #cayugalake.

Nov 30. #thursday #30daysofthankful #holidayseason
The last week has been erratic, but out and about today, I focused on the coming month. Looking forward to focusing on the #holidays and #friends and #family. #thankful for this past year of lessons and growth. #grateful for teachers and #gifts this year and the #possiblities for next year. To all, a safe, happy, and magical holiday season β¨π

Nov 28. #tuesday #30daysofthankful #wildlife
Have been down for the count for a few days, but still #grateful every day. When I went upstairs I saw these beautiful creatures on my hillside. I'm so #fortunate and #thankful to live in a place where #nature is so close---deer, eagles, turkeys, fox, coyotes, mink, seagulls, cormorants, swans---lots to see. For me, it's a lesson in coexisting. They live here, too, and humans have taken up more and more of their land. They are welcome and safe in "my" space.

Nov 24. #friday #30daysofthankful #tgif
Worked today, so I'm happy to be #homesweethome for a #cozyevening of blankets and pillows on my couch. I still haven't conquered this bug: sneezing, stomach ache, headache, tired. #thankfully I have a couple of low-key days before Monday.

"I am grateful for what I am and have. My Thanksgiving is perpetual." Henry David Thoreau #myfavorite seasonal quote.
#thankful for good weather for the annual #wedgewaddle benefitting St Joseph's House of Hospitality. It's always a great time. My agency, #swpc, hands out apples to the waddlers passing by. This morning we also had a #donation of Nitro Brew coffee from @joebeanroasters ---thank youπ Congrats to @hedonistchocolates on another successful event! π ππThe #southwedge community came out en force ππ

Nov 22. #wednesday #30daysofthankful #create
Set for #smallbusinesssaturday at @theartisancove. My "word" for 2023 is "create," so I'm #grateful for a year of #opportunities bringing me to this point, a #smallbusinessowner again. More to come in 2024. Wherever you are, do #supportlocal ---artists, makers, farmers, bakers, butchers, wineries, restaurants, etc. And have a happy and safe Thanksgiving in the US.

Nov 19. #sunday #30daysofthankful #care
Ten years ago today my #mother passed away, 17 days after my father. It was a surprise because, though she had Alzheimers, we had plans for Thanksgiving dinner, and she seemed in good spirits at the nursing facility. This morning she went to breakfast, back to her room, and that was it. I'm #thankful that she went peacefully and joined my dad---they just had their 60th wedding anniversary in October. She liked #hummels, and I bought them for her at Christmas, now packed away. #grateful for the doctors, nurses, and hospice that made her last weeks comfortable and safe and for the #angels that carried me through tbose months.

Nov 18. #Saturday #30daysofthankful #fallday
For this #glorius morning at the park in November (!?!) We haven't had a windstorm yet to remove the leaves, but I'm okay with that. As winter begins, #thankfully the more days we have like this, the fewer blustery cold, snowy and icy ones we'll have before spring.

Nov 14. #tuesday #30daysofthankful #home
#toughday: still achy and congested; Olive was up 90 min before my alarm; a meeting brought me melancholy memories; got sad news about a friend; there were so many distractions that I didn't finish anything; left the office with a headache. So #grateful to be home with a fresh #balsamcandle, a blanket and some hot chocolate to bring me happier memories and some rest. #tomorrowwillbebetter

Nov 13. #Monday #30daysofthankful #quiet
Always #appreciative of #quiettime on the bay. It's chilly here this morning, but there's someone else besides me taking in the #calm as the week begins.

Nov 11. #Saturday #30daysofthankful #teacher
Today was the last #zoom business class I've been taking most of this year. The group is friendly and supportive, and the teachings have been instrumental in my officially launching #artsoulwine. As I spend more time building this brand, I am so #appreciative of @radleighvalentine and @themuniverse for their engaging, spiritual and thoughtful perspectives and dialogues. I'm #grateful for the guidance and encouragement to #investinmyself.

Nov 10. #Friday #30daysofthankful #neighbors
Today I'm spotlighting my neighbor, Dave. He does nice little things like putting the garbage toters out for me. I came home today, and my walkway and deck were clear of pine needles and leaves---it's an epic battle here. So #fortunate to have a #goodneighbor.

#grateful that Olive's vet office could squeeze us in today after an allergic reaction to chicken. It's an excellent office, and the doctors really care about the animals.

Nov 8 #wednesday #30daysofthankful #basics
Home sick again today, I felt the colder outside temps through my ancient single-paned windows. I turned up the #thermostat a degree and thought how #fortunate that I'm able to do that. Too many others don't have these basic necessities. Sending #blessings to all of those in need--financial, shelter, safety, health, food, warmth.

Nov 7 #tuesday #30daysofthankful #tea
After chills and fever all morning, I'm having broth, toast, and tea for lunch. #thankful that I have the flexibility this week to take a day to feel better. There is so much to do, and I can't seem to focus.

Nov 5 #sunday #30daysofthankful #rest
#thankful for this quiet day of rest after the hectic past two months of working nights and weekends. Just a few light chores, some old mystery movies, tea, and naps. Plus an extra hour to do them π΄
