Beetle in the Zinnia

Do you see a message this image could represent? I've asked two people so far, and neither did. Other than it being just a funny picture of a beetle with its head sunk into the flower, does it mean anything to you at this moment?

I related to this sight right away, and at the time I was like the beetle. I was engrossed in my lovely garden, not to pick, but to enjoy, when I could have been (not should have been) laboring at the work inside my home.

Insect, Life

To me, that picture says, "Aaaah!" (It also reminds me of myself earlier this evening, face plastered to the oven window, waiting impatiently for my pizza to cook. But we won’t talk about that.)

It made me think of me with my head covered in curriculum books, ordering pages, college catalog and let’s not forget my pile of papers. It reminds me to stick my head up and see the beauty all around me:) I love your photographs!!

LOL Melanie about the oven door.

Lisa I read about your pile of papers at your blog. I hope that endeavor is going well. =)

It reminded me of the ostrich in the sand senerio that I’ve been living with of late - hubby forced me out of this earlier this week. Hope he was getting more than I did.

That is a funny photo!

Labor of love, maybe? Mindless Abandon? Driven?

Get my nose off the computer screen? I’ve been working on a post and have been very OCD about it. It is now back in draft.

Donna ((hugs)) you always keep me on track. That is the problem with telling friends your goals. They make sure you stick to them. I need to get back to it.

I got distracted with planning for next year.
