Horchata














Spent some time in nature this weekend.
Came home to rain clouds.
Got accepted to Chico.
Feeling less stress and more peace.
Finally found the secret to a good chai at home.
I feel like that part of the song that gets you hyped up is where my life is right now, and I am enjoying it.

Here comes the feeling you thought you'd forgotten

Seriously though, such beauty!

Thoughts;
Dad, I hope you are happy.
peace like a river
rain
tea
cuddles from Beckham
art
wind
black that is comforting

I think I will carve pumpkins this weekend with the nanny-lets.

Weekend






This weekend was wonderful.
I worked, then went to see Tuesday and just hung out.

She's getting used to me again, and yesterday fell asleep as I was petting her.
Sigh.

Thoughts;
fall is leaving; it's going to be 90 again!

Whatever my lot...


I'm a sucker for old hymn covers.
Like this one by Daniel Martin Moore...

Thoughts;
healing
waters
flow
Chico
transferring
the Future
anxiety

rain.


It is well...

Listening to a lot of Daughter lately...













I can't forget it, though I try
I know you regret it, love.

I still wonder why.

Oooo, haunting.

Take your hands off him,
he is the only one I have ever loved.
Please don't find her skin.

I can't erase it from my mind.
I just replay it, love.
Think of it all of the time.

This weekend was great.
Took the kids to the park.
We played soccer with my dog, ate pizza, and enjoyed the cool weather.
Tough job, huh?
Then Josh took me to the "mountains" for a relaxing date night.


Next time I'm bringing my tripod.
This is about a minute long exposure with the highest ISO setting on my camera and on B.
I want my camera to capture what I see, and this isn't cutting it...
But still.

Thoughts;
Thank you.
so much pizza this weekend
good music
good vibes
stars
sweatshirts
thrifted flannel
hot green tea with mint and rosemary
in my next life I want a rescued husky mix


that is all.

Fragile.


Life is fragile. Brief. Momentary.
We are not meant to live, to last.
We must fight for every breath.
We cry coming into this world.
All through the journey we cry,
Cry until our last and dying.
Cry.
And yet we fight. 
Depression.
Cancer.
Tickets.
Each other.
Always fighting.
Always dying.

26 stitches later...



These are photos from summer's road trip.

Today I took a shower for the first time without my wrist being wrapped in 2 plastic bags and a towel. 
Victory! 
I know it seems like a lot of my victories are shower-related...
Well, actually they really are all shower-related.

Thoughts;
rain
horses
the wild west
manifest destiny
implosion
tumble weeds
desert storms
thunder
full moon
coyote barks
a certain homecoming

I can tell that we are gonna be friends.




Yesterday I hung out with Tuesday.
Read some more out of Genesis.
Took some night shots.

Thoughts;
Fall arrived yesterday.
