JEWELRY
It was a mellow weekend, summer-lazy, rainy and sunny, filled with friends and books, gardening and catching up on chores and life.
Simple. And lately, that is all that I need.
Less stuff, more life.
Enjoying the moment.
Soaking up the sun.
Running in the rain.
Bird watching and star gazing.
Fresh vegetables for dinner, corn from the stand right around the corner.
Freckles and barefeet.
Summer.
Simple.

Wishing you a week filled with sun and simple.
is a slow one
dressed in gowns
of gossamer and
light
.
listen,
can you hear
the fireflies’
violin?
to sunshine and rain
wind and calm
tomorrow, today
forever and never
each flower is
my favorite form
of hope
presented
in living color
My internet was out for the last three days… and while it was a major inconvenience as far as work is concerned, it was also kind of nice.
I felt myself slowing down, just a little. My routine was no longer routine, and since we also had beautiful weather, I spent a lot of time outside. I took this picture last week, planning to post it on Saturday, which, of course, never happened. Since then, all of the black eyed susans have opened. What a happy flower they are.
Yesterday I wrote all morning, went running, worked in the garden, had a nice dinner with my husband, and then read all evening. It was pretty much a perfect day.
Sometimes, things work out just exactly the way they are supposed to.
I think this was one of those times.
It was a space filled with quiet, and I don’t give that to myself often enough. You get so used to all the chatter that you stop thinking about it, but it’s always there.
Sometimes, you just have to stand still and let the wind blow through your hair.
It’s refreshing.

Wishing you a week filled with quiet.
