I haven't been around much this week but it isn't because I don't have lots to share. I do. I've been missing because I had company until Monday and a sick little girl until this morning. But mostly I've been missing because I'm just feeling content. Content to sit and read. To embroider and sew. To watch a movie. To spend time snuggling. To enjoy the peace. To spend time cooking dishes with pasta, and broth and pumpkin and apples. This life of mine isn't perfect, but I'm so happy it's mine.
All the things you've mentioned, are food for my soul. I just finished sewing a new apron. It's a rainy, gloomy afternoon and it seemed like the thing to do.
ReplyDeleteI do hope you find time for yourself soon.
how wonderful, I love your blog. Similar sentiments have been floating around the blog world these last couple of weeks.. seems that Autumn has a lot of us wrapped around it's little finger. I hope your little one feels better, and you continue to enjoy your life! _ Sarahlynn

ReplyDeleteWhat a true luxury time is...you know the kind of time you can spend the way YOU want to. Good choices. Sweet little felt house.
ReplyDeleteOK - Did you get that felt house on the Wisteria clearance???? I got one, too. I think it's the same one. I MEANT to email you a red-alert, because I totally thought of you, but then I must have spaced it! How cosmic would it be if you still found and bought it?!
