all packed up


all packed up, originally uploaded by pilgrimgirl.

Yesterday the kids and I packed up our Christmas decor. I took a pic so you could see how we keep the holiday simple at our house. CatGirl is sitting next to the one box of decorations (wreath, tree skirt, a few xmas figurines, 4 stockings, a snow globe musicbox, tree ornaments, and two creches). Behind her is the box that our tree goes in. And that’s it. It all fits tidily on top of the storage shelving in our closet.

TobyJoy is sneaking around in the background of the pic, because she’s never far from her girl.

deep thoughts

night owl (again)

Night noises:

The rain in the gutter on the other side of the wall from me that is alternately bubbling and then thudding. Odd sounds, indeed.

John is snoring loudly. Rather unusual for him, actually. In a moment I will head into the bedroom and encourage him to roll over by tickling him with cold fingers and toes.

My thumbs cracking. My joints are all funky and poppy because of the rain.

Th gentle whirr of my dutiful junebug and the clack of my fingers on her keys.

What are you hearing?

About Me

About Me

Hi there friend, and welcome to my blog. I started writing on the internet two decades ago. Since then I've started and finished a PhD program, left the Mormon church and became a Quaker, got divorced, remarried, found full-time work in academia, took up rock climbing and outrigger canoeing, and traveled across the globe (China! Belgium! Italy! Chicago! Montana! Portland! Gettysburg! and oh-so-many points in-between). This blog is eclectic and random--it has poetry and cooking and books. And cats. And flowers. And the ocean (my ocean). But in that sense it's a good reflection of me and my wide-ranging, far-reaching, magpie curiosity.
