It has everything to do with small victories

A car cleaned both inside and out.

A new stitch found on on youtube

A helping hand from a child growing up oh so quick

Not getting a GROSS for the explanation of the facts of life
A Full explanation.

And then the icing on my truly charmed life

Dry tidies whiteys from the whole night and day

Cool things done on the etch-a-sketch


It is time to come back. Back to who I am/ who I was.
How I see myself has changed so in the past year. I have lost some myself,
perhaps the parts that where not necessary.
Perhaps not.
But it is time to to come back to community.
To my love of people and environment.
I have moved the furniture and nested as much as I can.
Not that the couch didn't need a tour of the other rooms today but it must have been sad to only be dragged back to where it started.
You never can go home
Never walk the same path twice
But sometimes you find yourself back in the same place,
Unchanged only completely different.

" A few minutes ago every tree was excited, bowing to the roaring storm, waving, swirling, tossing their branches in glorious enthusiasm like worship. But though to the outer ear these trees are now silent, their songs never cease. " John Muir

I am on a journey for my song again. It is not in the house or even in the wood. But in me and though i have lost track of it. I am certain to find it again. As i have lost it before and picked up a new tune that carried me on.

Welcome lovely September.
You sweet lusty tramp of summer
some days so hot others sweater cool.
bring me a wonderful new nephew
cool breezy mornings in the garden,
children full of school and new ideas,
new shoes and at least one new sweater
Fall is coming.
Make me a pot pie and a glass of vino
a day knitting in the sun
children in other worldly sweaters. 
Yes come fall and wash away the bugs  
so we can open our windows and clear out 
the stale summer air. 

I am ready come fall come!
