I am reading more about face reading and delving into its world with such fascination. I came across Jean Haner’s face reading website today and read this post, which just about sums up things for me at the moment: On my flight home, I was reading an interview with Oprah, where she talked about author … Continue reading »

Here is a picture of me on google maps street view outside my house
I was on Google Maps last night with a friend and we started looking at our houses. I was astonished to see ME outside my house sitting on a chair in the sun next to my washing line! I am wearing my favourite flowery skirt. I know exactly when it was taken as my husband … Continue reading »
what really makes us happy? being thankful
one thing my husband is so amazing at doing is thanking me for what I do. He thanks me every day with sincerity and passion in one way or another and not just for the obvious things like a nice meal, but for things that he has noticed I have done in a certain way; … Continue reading »
three wonderful things about today
I went down a HUGE hill on cross-country skis and stayed UPRIGHT! My man said he was proud of me. I made the best batch of coconut cookies yet.
today saw me laid up with a little yoga injury
Today saw me laid up with a little injury sustained from yoga. Yesterday, I was a little too aggressive with the water wheel, I am afraid. I pulled a muscle in my groin. Yuk. No cross-country skiing either for me today. Instead I went to a friend’s house, let the kids play and sat and … Continue reading »

three perfect things
Three perfect things about today: Spending an hour collecting fallen wood for fire kindling on the other side of the river, all four of us, a family. Picking up damp, moss-covered branches looking distinctly like deer antlers and being reminded of all the riches of autumn. Lying on the sofa with the sun slanting in … Continue reading »
thursday
Saw the moon low in the sky at 3 in the morning and for a moment had the overwhelming feeling that I was in a small hut overlooking a primal scene with only a few other people living on the planet. I felt ancient and the forest surrounded me. There is something about the moon … Continue reading »
wednesday
I watched a program about the solar system last night; a beautiful, moving, gargantuan piece about the planets out there, with amazing photographs of the worlds far off and close up. I witnessed the first landing on Titan, one of Saturn’s moons, by a bug the size of a shoe box, saw polished stones on … Continue reading »
birds are singing, seeds are sprouting
Although we are under five feet of snow, in the last few days I have felt the most imperceptable stirrings from the deep down in the earth. The birds, who usually lie quietly in the thicket, are all a twitter – carrying gifts for their mates, fussing around in the bush, tidying and making ready … Continue reading »
