Feeling swept up in the devastation of natural disaster. Not without hope for good things to come... but right now, a heavy heart and a million prayers. I'm reminded that our loved ones and life's sweet, simple, fleeting moments are to be cherished above anything else.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Getting out there, even in the rain. Making our own sun.
Wine from one neighbor, flowers from another.
Her little job, and the flowers that greet her.
Tea, in solitude.
Him, barefoot on the trail.
Using the very last shallot from 2010. Happy the farm opens in two weeks.
Incredible friends (who are blessed to live on a lake).
Time.
Productivity. Grateful for (and loving) the variety of things I get to call work.
Borrowed car for the week... vintage store 'field trip!'
The first of the season.
Not much interest in cooking, but she'll spin salad all day long. (It's fun!)
Surprised at how moved I was by this.
The return of blue skies and sunshine.
These little things... grateful they make up the essence of our days.
