I guess one small blessing from my husband leaving is that now I have a studio. I mean, that I had one before but it was actually a laundry room and it had a drafty dutch door and cement floors and spot lights. So what is the problem you are thinking? A sink, a counter, [...]

Wesley the Owl by Stacey O’Brien
Posted in Books, birds on December 30, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I finished this book a couple of days ago. It is a lovely love story of a biologist and the owl she raised nearly from birth. I have to tell you I cried and cried at the end, but just loved the story. It is fascinating and is further confirmation of my own long held [...]
Apples on a Tree

This day is a new day, a cold day, a hard day.
There is not warmth, there is only grey skies, overcast.
I look for meaning and find none.
I wait.

My cousin Will, I should say my favorite cousin in the whole world…(if Karen is reading this he was jealous of you when we spent the summer in Colorado telling him to go away), stopped by a couple days ago. I feel so blessed because between friends and family I now have plumbing, wild caught [...]

Another doodle which seems to be the art of choice for me these days. I already have ideas for at least two more. I have decided to stop blogging on my Fiber blog and devote all my Fiber related art to this site, a combination of the two my garden, and my art. As the title [...]

I realized a couple days ago that it has been a third of a year since my husband left. A full fall season. I am doing better than I was initially but can feel there is a long way to go. One of the things I reallized I needed to do was to winterize my [...]
Strange Snow Day

Friday was the first snow day of the school year. I woke to a solid 8 inches of snow on the ground. I spent the day working in my studio and writing a story I am working on, a fantasy story that seems to be developing quite nicely. I am collaborating with a dear and [...]
Crows

When I was growing up one of my favorite stories was called “The Crows of Pearblossom” by Aldous Huxley. I find it interesting that I loved this book so much and when I grew up I came to love Aldous Huxley for his philosophical views. In a nearby town the crows are considered a nuisance [...]

I have not posted in quite some time, I have been both struggling and recovering and preparing for a craft show. I went to Columbus to visit my brother for Thanksgiving. It was a great trip down with only a little sloppy weather in the area between Buffalo and Cleveland. On the way home it [...]
Fractured

Fractured
we are glass window panes
broken
she burns with anger and shuts her self down
i wallow in despair
lost in a sea of tides
“she will be fine”
he said
so ignorant and self absorbed
she is not.
but he doesn’t even care
we are shattered
fractured
broken.
she is broken most of all.
