A day in real time

A day of creating. Leftovers for dinner. Bits of threads and felt all over the kitchen and living room.
A few glue gun burns. A walk at sunset with a friend. A bonfire.
The day felt as though it played in real time instead of fast forward. 
I like that.

 

On grace and patience: watch the unfurling ferns

We're in final countdown mode. 
I am blissfully unaware of how I will get everything done. 
The bird watching, turtle spoting, cedar sap smelling was just what I needed. The unfurling ferns reminded me that patience and grace are the best allies.
We get to live our dream. 
I can't count how many times I said that to myself today.

 And yes, we found the perfect bus! We are thrilled! 

More photos soon.

A taste of summer

Sticky skin. New freckles. Warm wind. Mango-banana sherbet.
Laundry on the line. Yard work. The clomping of sandals on asphalt.
Our days are beginning to feel more and more like summer.

New warmth

Energized by the sun, the new warmth, the sparkling light. 

Baby laugh. Smiles all around. Warm, homemade bread.
There was a pie. (and ice cream).
