Nested In

Tuesday, January 22, 2008


My, what a day it has been. Or rather, a day that became night that again became day, and is this still me, now hours past dinner, at my lonely desk, in my chilly room, banging away at client work? I am aware that we have had a full moon and that the small fringe of ice on my car outside has not (in three days) melted and that my son went off at daybreak and took mid-term exams and then returned (I hear him now, in the kitchen, crunching on something magnificently calorific). I believe I've seen the laundry sprawled upstairs, across my bedroom floor. I'm not sure, but chances are I'll wake tomorrow and find that I am fresh out of mascara.

I'm miles from being close to done with what I've promised my clients I will do. Let's face it: I'm weeks away. I'm thinking it's time to curl up beneath a bright, winter sky and let some of the world pass me by.

Oh to be nested in with nothing much, if only for a little while.

Let me tell you something, let me no more delay: Those of you who write the exquisite things you write, in the blog right here? You have no idea how you fortify.

It is you, dear Beth, who fortify others as well. I hope you know how much your beautiful words give. Your photos are a gorgeous icing on the cake.

I have a little something for you on my blog. Please stop by and pick it up.
