Description
Bolts of cotton at the fabric store. The leaf pattern is a ginko.
Update:
I got a recommendation for a doctor down here in Texas, and had an appointment on Friday with the Nurse Practitioner. She gave me a second prescription for my blood pressure, and said it might take two to six weeks to kick in and stabilize. Both Saturday and Sunday I took the new pill, and my numbers have been in the 125/68 range both days. A most excellent result! I'm still tired, but they say it takes a while to heal from all the trauma my body went through last weekend, what with my blood pressure going up and down and having so many unsuccessful IV insertions.
This week I've been staying active. I've gone out with friends for low-key activities, have walked a mile or more every day, and have been in the pool frequently. Not doing laps, you understand ... just bobbing around on a pool noodle. :P
Sorry to be so late in giving you an update, but I basically had nothing to report until now. Unless you hear something different, you can assume everything here is just fine, and Bill and I are well and humming right along. :)
Thanks again for all your concern!

Wonderful image, great sense of composition and very well taken !!!!
Good news, thanks for the update. A very pretty rainbow in this image. I have liked the shape of the gingko leaf ever since my visit to Japan. I have a small gold plated pendent in the shape of a gingko leaf. How many people do you know who can say that?
great news, tara--guess it's the classic, "no news is good news"!! LOVE this fabric; i'd buy a bunch of it if i did any sewing anymore!!
And how wonderful they look well done.Glad your on the mend
Very nice rainbow, Tara! Glad to hear that things are settling down for you - just don't over do it please!
Now that is great news, Tara :-) Sounds as if you have had some great days with friends and... of course Bill ;-) I Sooo long for warmer weather, so I can be more active too. It is so windy her and it has been so for weeks now. Thanks for the update :-) I really like these fabric rolls. They are very beautiful. :)
wonderfully composed; I love it
Beautiful arrangement.Lovely color.
Don't you just love displays like this? I'm always drawn to them, but I could never choose a colour because it's the display of ALL of them that I love, individually they lose much of their appeal. Good that your body is settling a bit, we tend to forget that really we're a finely balanced machine, and when one bit goes wobbly it throws everything off. Just keep doing what you're doing, and enjoy your life!
What wonderful news!! Glad to hear things are improving. And I just love this rainbow photo. You are so very creative with your photos.
Brilliant news! I'm all for bobbing around on a noodle, but at present the air temperature in our pool hall is a bit brisk, and until they sort it we need to keep moving. It's meant to be one degree C above the water temperature, but is actually several below..brrrr. What a GORGEOUS display, I should be so tempted.
Beautiful array of pattern & color. I'm very glad to hear you're doing well, Tara - keep taking it slow & don't push yourself too hard too fast...
Lovely capture cool your on the mend!!
Superb capture Tara. Glad to hear all is well with you and Bill. God bless.
Ginko - WOW - it looks so luscious, one could almost take a bite out of it - it looks sweet enough to eat ;P
When I visited one of my old school-friend Renate, on my last trip to Germany (2014)... she had a Ginko tree in her garden and naturally enough, I took a photo of it - [unfortunately, she had passed away since] - but it is a bitter-sweet reminder of the little, but valuable time I had spend with her...
Let's hope that was an indoor pool
- unless your friends live at Southern end of the US ? but it's all good I am doing likewise - but in an outdoor pool ...
Cheers BB - get well wishes and
that good news and soon you be doing tap dances lol just a joke. good image too and that not a joke
Cool colors.
Very nice image love the colours
Wat a joyful surprise to read you're so good with your blood pressure, and also that you can relax while floating in the water, and on the go with friends; it is a richness to enjoy this. I'm so glad you have good friends in your area. And your dear husband, Bill, as a caring man for you. They are blessings, right? Your pictures of the ginko are excellent, and I would choose, I doubt, ......but for those who have the soft tones in the transitions of color hue. Such as the purple and blue-green. Thank you also to tell me from your lovely quilt meeting as for your report on talk about your understanding of fractals, I am impressed by you, dear Tara. Anyhow, for all the love and care, your kindness and your pleasant mood; So sorry, I'll never be able to visit, but in mind, I'll do it.
That is good news Tara. Being in the pool is a good thing. Movement in the pool is much easier on your body than say walking, running, or biking. I have seen Ginko trees in a park near Kassel, Germany, but they are not that common, and I have never seen them here.The patterns look interesting and the colors are nice!
I was very happy to hear your health news, though I hope you get your energy back soon. It was a long couple of weeks, and I'm happy you're home and able to relax and enjoy yourself, which always helps when regulating your body. It was nice of you to post this, to let us all know. The picture is one of two shots you've done lately, of different hues in a store; and they've been delightful. In zoom, the patterns in these ginkos are very satisfying to look at, as is the grain in the fabric, as is the lineup of colors. The angle gives it life too. A sweet shot, and I wish you all the best while you get back to normal. I'm glad you're where it's temperate, and with people you love to be with (besides, of course, Bill). A beautiful shot to accompany your very positive update.
Un rayon d'arc-en-ciel, une panoplie de sourires et de gaité !
A ray of rainbow sky, a variety of smiles and cheerfulness !
Soooo glad to read the good news, Tara! That BP acting up can really turn you upside down. Jo's been on BP meds for years, and is doing great. It's just a matter of finding the right meds for each person. Looks like they may have got things all worked out for you.
And I love these colors and patterns. I would have been tempted to buy a yard of each color just to throw on my scanner for some clothing textures. Or backgrounds.
Just beautiful...
