Musings (berries, games, music, & more)

Posted on October 27, 2025April 16, 2026 by Melissa

These raspberries (for being the last).

This reflection (for stopping me in my tracks).

This game (for bringing us to the table).

This sunrise (for being spectacular).

This reminder (because I needed it).

And also:

This collection (because WoW)!

These apples (can’t be taken for granted).

On giving up (in a good way).

This song (for the beat to get me moving).

Wishing you a wonderful week ahead.

Onward,

Melissa
