Each moment is a place you've never been.
~Mark Strand
going down timberdoodle saturday afternoon. grateful for the snow mixed with a mild temp.
the cabin we stayed in was lovely. we watched Fried Green Tomatoes. Claire thinks it's the best movie ever.
William was my yoga partner this morning. then he made me a rose out of duct tape. i don't think it gets much better than that.
some music to warm here and here. if bluegrass don't do it, not sure what will.
they got along like dogs and thunder. we had to take breaks. we're still not finished.
finally put away the last of the christmas decorations. after i felt like cupcakes with coconut.
it was so beautiful this morning that i skipped my run to take some photographs. i don't regret it.
houseplants are hope.
we have all been very sick here. but soon i hope we will be blooming again.
my favorite part of today is when William said, "thank you mama for taking care of me"
Christmas 2010
hope yours was ridiculously merry and blindly bright.
