peace love

light

All a woman needs is a good bath, and a new lampshade.

This is an odd, artsy shot of my candle reflected in the bath.

And this....

is my new lampshade.

ache

This photo sums up my evening.  I strained my back on Thursday.  I thought it would be fine to run in the dog agility trial this weekend.  After all, it didn't seem that bad. But after eight runs, and a hundred tugs at the end of the leash, I'm in extreme pain.

time for a little get away

happy birthday, Annie

Going through my glove compartment today, I ran across this card.  It was sealed, and nestled between an old Dominos mailer, and a map of San Francisco.  It is addressed to my dear friend, Annie, who passed away almost 2 1/2 years ago.  I forgot to give it to her one day when we met for Thai food in Federal Way.  I left the card in my glove compartment, knowing that eventually I would see her again.  Eventually, I would remember. And  surely, we would both have a good laugh over it.  

Well, I didn't remember.  And then, I didn't see her again.

Today would have been Annie's 45th birthday.

If you love someone, tell them.  You may not get a second chance.

A quick iPhone pic, during a snow flurry in Buckley today.

watch it grow

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago.  The next best time is now.

I planted a tree today.  Looking forward to having a picnic under it's branches when I'm 65.  (:

renewal

I'm going to miss you, old passport.

You've been flipped, stamped, and stuffed into a backpack.  Countless times.

Thank you for 10 years of marvelous adventure.     

3 dog day

Almost 65 degrees today!

Perfect afternoon for a swim.

twilight

Beautiful sunset tonight.

I don't want life to imitate art.

I want life to be art.

The moon and clouds looked amazing tonight.

Little league teams practiced in the outfield.

Minus the chilling winds, it almost felt like spring.  

salt water

The cure for anything is salt water - sweat, tears, or the sea.

Today, I chose the sea.
