Just to be clear…
by jude
Just one last try to untangle my cryptic self. The one that goes along saying stuff that nobody gets really. And that I am tired of trying to explain. I can get there on my own without dragging you along. Yesterday, I made the decision to move my blogging back to Spirit Cloth/TypePad. Many personal feelings were involved. I made another post there this morning. Explaining. And then this morning, after that post, I decided to close this website after […]

… while there is peace in the valley once again. 6.1 inches of rain according to my rain gauge. One sunflower down. Sun’s out. Me too.

Grab on to it

Pfffft. No Big Wind really. But Big Rain, 28 hours of it, so far. There was only one sunflower, one biggish one, to survive the deer. She collapsed in the big rain and the only decent wind gust, early on. But here she is this morning. It is still pouring. Yesterday was dark. I needed a lamp to stitch. Just small cloth. Wondering why I just didn’t continue the quilting on Heal. But again I found myself form chasing. Some […]

Could go either way here. The rain has begun. But even without the wind, 2-4″ of rain is just too much. With wind, way too much. Trees could pull right out of the already soggy ground. We cleared the furniture from the porch just in case. We need roof repair that hasn’t happened yet. So it needs to be cleared anyway. Hoping to get that done when the weather cools. Soul-o was right by my side early this morning. I […]

The lighter side of me

The romantic, optimistic part of me comes from my Mom. She was the happy, Winnie the Poo, Pie in the Sky person in the room. Always reminding me that everything is going to be all right, that folks are basically good, that tomorrow is another day. Probably I didn’t really buy a lot of what she was selling all the time, but seriously, Pie Eyes can make the difference in a day sometimes. Good medicine. And my ,my, could she […]

just to keep going

Yesterday I made a new path. Through the wild growth and through my tangled mind. I noticed the Japanese Maple is turning. Today there is a soft drizzle. Dark but light enough to sit near the big window and stitch on Heal. I added this final patch. I will quilt this now. Until it seems like enough. I’ll try anyway. I’ll be back when I get there.
