My intentions of posting more regularly fell somewhere between wishful thinking and life’s chaotic sense of humor. Moving into a new home brings a cascade of unexpected challenges that effortlessly devour every second of the day. I do take pictures though which remind me why we moved to the countryside.
So here I am, bidding January farewell with a few sunrises captured along the way.
Who knows, maybe the days and months that follow I’ll return to normalcy!
For January music, head to Oannes‘ blog to listen. He’s also doing a tribute on David Lynch [RIP]. At least one of us has been active here!

Marina Kanavaki 
Wow! Beautiful!
Nature’s way. Thank you very much! 🙏
And now it’s already the last day of February, and we’re ready to March into spring. Countryside living seems to agree with you. (That opening photograph, by the way, was especially gorgeous.)
…we’ve already Marched into signs of spring! Thanks, my friend.
I am gradually beginning to enjoy countryside living. Still a lot of adjusting to do. Hours of the day are never enough!
so incredibly beautiful dear Marina.
❤️
Thank you, dahlin Holly! xoxoxo ❤️
Nice post! 🙂
Thank you! 🙏🏻
Good luck in your new digs. That countryside looks beautiful and beautifully photographed. Happy New Year!
As for regular blogging, I started my blog with the subtitile Everydayanotherstory!
Good to see you. You’ve redone your site beautifully too.
Everydayanotherstory… I know right?! Here I am, a month later replying!
Great to see you too and thanks for all the good wishes!
Happy …Three!
And today is 4/4!!!
make that 8/4! 😉 Happy April – or Happy Four!
May the new home be a very happy one! Thank you for the beautiful impressions!
Thank you very much! 🙏
Gorgeous sunrises, Marina. I love the ones especially where the fog has settled into the land. They’re so magical. 🙂
Thank you so much, Diana! I love waking up to this view! xo
Beautiful views Marina!
Thank you, Ken! The advantages of the countryside! 😉
Your January going out in a blast of wonderful warm colour – so striking and “life’s chaotic sense of humor” is a wonderful epithet for plans going awry.
Awry indeed! Thank you, Laura. At least we are treated with beautiful views. xo
Your photos are stunning, Marina, and life does have an interesting sense of humor, doesn’t it? I hope the chaos dies down for you, but in the meantime, take care of you! Love and hugs coming your way, dear friend. xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
Yes, it does! But well, all’s part of life, so even chaos is received with appreciation. Thank you, my dear friend. Love and many hugs to you!

Marina, give yourself a break. Relocating is a huge deal. I’ve made several moves, all on my own, including three moves across the entire country. I feel for you.
Thanks for sharing these beautiful sunsets. Hugs.
Thank you, Teagan! Honestly, I’m experienced in the filed of moving but this one surpassed all of them! Many many hugs your way! xoxo
It looks like you’ve settled in a beautiful place. Those sunsets!
Thank you, Liz! We’re fortunate to find this little place right next to the city. xoxoxoxo
You’re welcome, Marina!
xoxoxo
What’s normal, Marina? The dust will settle & we look forward to receiving new posts from you soon! Spring is not far off so enjoy it there in your new home & location! 🤗💐🙋♂️
I wonder too, what’s normal?! Thank you, my dear friend! Yes, Spring!
I hope you are well and enjoying the days.
🙏🌱😊
We’ve had enough of wind & rain; need some sun & warmth! Better days ahead! 🤗🙋♂️
Lots of that here too, although we’ve had a nice sunny interval past week+. Rain tomorrow! Here’s to better days! 🙏🤞👍😌

but wait… what?… bidding january farewell. so soon? it is happening again dear M.
Merci 🐉!
Well, two more days to go! 😉 I think this time it’s moving slightly slower, but maybe it’s just me!
🙏✨🐉✨🙏
haha, good for you! 🤗
💫😵💫⏳🪽

Isn’t it interesting and fascinating how sunrise is different every day. Many don’t know this because they never get out of bed to witness the beauty. Love the collection – and for me – the opener was the best. Hang in there. Then again, you are fine. Yamas!
You’re right… many don’t notice. Even similar sunrises are different.
Yes, the opener was this morning. What’s fascinating is how colors change every minute, from dawn to full sunrise.
Thanks, my friend. Issues aside, I’m fine indeed! 😉
Yamas!
Stunning, dahling. Gorgous images.
I can totally see why you moved there.
Normalcy? It that something I should know about?
Things will get more routine, and you will find time within that!
Ahh, music!
xoxoxoxoxoxoxo
Ah, thank you, dahlin!
Yes, normalcy… well… can also be a good thing, I think! 😂
At least Hera is making the most of her garden… and I do mean the most! 🤣
Speaking of Hera… get ready! 🐾☔️🏊🏻♀️💦😘🐾
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

I found Hera art. Next post!

Beautiful photos. What a beautiful morning with colorful clouds and fog in the valley. You live in your own piece of paradise now.
Ah, thank you, Tim! I think you’re right. I pinch myself each morning!
At least when you do post, you do so with a beautiful bang! What gorgeous shots, Marina. Love, love, love!!
xoxoxoxoxo
Awww….. thank you, Dale! I actually take photos every day with the intention of posting! 😂 What can I say… life! 😉
Mouwah mouwah mouwah !
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
I bet you do and I get it. I have greatly reduced my writing and reading of blog posts. I just get overwhelmed and I don’t want my life to be all about blogging.
MOUWAH! MOUWAH! MOUAH!
Hear Hear!
Hugs flying over to you!
xoxoxoxoxo
Hugs received and reciprocating ones sent your way!

Got them! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
