I love this picture- I took it last week when I was sitting at the park… at first there were several turtles sitting on the rocks, but slowly they all started to jump back into the rushing water below them. I have felt like those turtles this past week- I was sitting and sunning myself [...]

Moving Forward
So it is slow going… and I keep stopping thinking maybe I should just stay put… but I can’t- I have got to keep moving forward. So, wish me luck.
A fresh start for fall….
Dreaming again of new beginnings and fresh starts. Fall seems like a good time to get a fresh perspective on things and clear the slate. So- a new look to things- and trying to revisit why I write here and what I want this place to be for me.
And so it goes. This September I [...]
i’m here… i’ve just been hiding a bit

I touch: dirt, dirt [...]

Have a lovely Monday and don’t [...]
Sunday Supplies
Yesterday I celebrated my Easter Sunday quite simply- by getting outside and enjoying the wonder of Spring in my new home. I started by gathering some supplies: water, my iPod, some poetry by Rainer Maria Rilke and a lovely bag from a wondermous friend to hold it all in. Then I went to [...]
Meet Bertrand
Meet Bertrand. He is the first four legged friend to join us in quite some time. Unfortunately, right when we got Bertrand he had to have surgery- so quite unhappily he has been having to wear an Elizabethan Collar- which makes him less than pleased. Other than that he seems quite happy with his new [...]
Dreaming of Paris
Today is not a day for the mundane, but alas– here the mundane surrounds me. Laundry to be done, dishes to wash, cats to medicate….
Today I should have woken up in a luxury suite in Paris. A light knocking at the door would rouse me around eleven with the news that my breakfast of cafe [...]
