patches
despite a rather productive (i was up before 9!) monday, i can tell this week is gonna be gritty. when i notice the tranquility leaking out of my soul, i have to be careful to abide by the following:- hot bath with nothing but my birthday suit and thoughts
- regular and plenty of sleep
- touch joel as much as possible
- break out the paints (although i just bought charcoal and am eagerly anticipating that)
- stay away from dick's cheeseburgers
- remember that life is an adventure
- believe that i am loved and not quickly forgotten
- listen to the rain
here's to patching up that leaky hole,

you, among other things. i resonate particularly with one of yours. it seems too private to say which. have you checked your mailbox lately, mme?
I was so glad to see that text about the charcoal. When the time is right, I know you will be able to push that inky black around, fingers sooty, marking your cheeks, somehow illuminating the light even more.
But I agree, the translucence and fluidity of watercolor might be just the thing to wake up this drizzly, gray day.
Current stresses can claim tranquillity. Exterior limbo and interior peace are hard to combine into one fluid life, but that doesn't mean you've lost it.
Leisure walks, a thunderstorm, watching the trees sway in the breeze, watching my babies sleep and the rise and fall of their bellies, a single flower and yes a hot bath does wonders :).
Just stumbled upon your blog today. I'll be back :).
