hello neglected dusty blog. there used to be so much to say, so much to show. and now the words are stored upstairs in my attic (shh, the one in my head). often, they are never fully formed. just as they begin to bud someone needs their baseball pants washed like yesterday. and someone else needs to have me throw their toy over and over and over and over all the while leaping in my face barking. and, inevitably, someone else decides to crack his head open, think about passing out, and desire a side trip to the ER. so thoughts never bloom. they sit patiently in the very back of my day-glow brain and fester instead of unfurling with loveliness.
if i could speak to you without words, i'd show you this...
it makes me happy to be a girl. it makes me want to slick my hair back and dance. it makes me yearn for vintage clothes because prada doesn't fit into my blacktop, bike riding, hiking life just this minute.
i'm working on some crafty things this week. and as they come along i'll tell you about them with Words and Without.
how goes it with you? are you even there anymore?




here. (raises hand)

Hi Kelly !
Life is good. You live it well. Good to hear about it, even with few words. ;)
Big Love to you !

Sometimes living in the moment is about a collection of little vignettes and not the expression of fully formed thoughts. Your word pictures are crystal clear. Despair not.

Great visuals...although I actually felt like a man watching her--she's a bit of a tease, just a flash of dress here, a bounce of hem there. Hope everyone's OK, post ER trip :-).

Without words.. we hear you. It is not necessary for one to speak so many words to be heard.
