It's the simple things...

Today, and hopefully always, I'm so appreciative and thankful for the simple things:  time, ability, patience, love, and two silly little snowmen, hanging in my window...

In case you ever foolishly forget; I'm never not thinking of you.

~ Virginia Woolf

Today

I'm not sure how time keeps getting away from me like this.  It seems so slow on a day-to-day basis, but passes quick when I stop and look around.

Live the full life of the mind, exhilarated by new ideas, intoxicated by the romance of the unusual. 
~ Ernest Hemingway

The last week

It's been a busy week of work, potlucks:

Waffle iron potluck!  Pizza, cinnamon rolls, and cookies.  

hanging with friends:

my lovely friend Virginia

 getting my fireplace working:

Yay!  My house is warm!

And being happy and content.

She buried her ears
into the calm of his heartbeat,
and in a matter of seconds:
fell terribly in love
with the way her loneliness fell
softly and suddenly,
asleep, in his chest.
~ Christopher Poindexter
