I am frantic about Target. I go searching for the perfect accents for the apartment and come up empty handed against my bank account. I am looking for the big things too, rugs and curtain rods, bed side tables and mirrors and a bed frame. You know, big things and little things. And of course… Continue reading A bowl of lemons
Category: Vespers in gloaming light
Prayers of gratitude and moments of grace.
Little thank you’s and musings of wonder and delight.
All memories of things that glow internally and in the world around me.
Time slip
I have these moments, you see, where it doesn’t make any sense. And I’m retracing my steps backwards to find out when it stopped feeling like me. I can’t trace them back far enough, I guess that’s the thing about growing. You can’t go backwards, unlearn the lessons or stitch up the hurt places in a way… Continue reading Time slip
A bath with a bubble and a thought
It is not often that one gets a Saturday Night to lay in a tub, but that is just what I did. There is a special place in my heart for citrus epsom salt and singing Adele at the top of my lungs. It awakens the teenager in me. I will tell you this, I… Continue reading A bath with a bubble and a thought

The two candles flanking each side of this bright screen were bought in the Target in Cleveland, Ohio. A set of… Continue reading Home Sweet
Inside and out
I don’t think we should underestimate windows, do you? After all, they let the light in don’t they?They allow the breeze to dance through.They bring the goodness of outside in. And keep the bad weather out when needed.Sometimes in the right light, they give us rainbows on the floor. Through water or glass.Sometimes at a specific… Continue reading Inside and out
Three days in
The place is a mess, but the paper work is signed. I balance my whole life on a tender and delicate idea. Boxes unpack and things are hung. Floors swept and wiped. I peek around corners and try to learn the lay out. I see myself in new windows and flick the blinds open and… Continue reading Three days in
We go
The last day in January and big adventure awaits us tomorrow. We fly, we pack, then drive home. Home. Your home and mine, in someway, I hope. I am itching to get this part over. And so are you. You are frightened and so am I. I am treading as carefully as I can, although… Continue reading We go
