an actual view : the patio : 6 degrees : i am not going out

[december views]

as it turns out, this thing of sharing photos more than words has served me well this month, as i might have too many sad words to share. the unexpected loss of a very dear friend, the loss of a job (one of them - and yes, i need more than one), the bleakness of winter so far, the artBlockage, loneliness. but time moves on. next week i will go to spend a nice long holiday in Texas with all my family and MY GIRLIES and perhaps there will even be sun and warmth. then i will come home and it will be New Year, my favorite time of the year. a hopeful time.

    Bobbi, I am sorry for the loss of your friend, and the loss of your job. I too look forward to the New Year and new beginnings.

    Blessed solstice to you and yours! Enjoy your trip, stay warm!

    really an amazing shot. artblockage?? your photos are as artful as art gets. i should have such a blockage.

    i empathize with your pain. life is messy. life is fatal. life is mysterious and beautiful. life is still weird in austin — you should move back.

    thank you all for your thoughts and your comments. it *has* been sort of a wild weird not-so-good year, but i am SO GLAD i will get to spend the rest of it with my family! ha. debra - i am thinking SO seriously about it…
