shepherd's delight


I love this time of year with her pink skies and dandelion fairies and seedlings putting on a show....
pulling the car over to the side of the road to pick wild primrose so my Mom can check they smell the same as she remembers from when she was a girl.

I love waking early and pulling up the blinds, enjoying a cup of strong tea while looking out at the morning clouds....wondering if today they will break and let the sun say hello or they'll churn up a rainstorm instead.




Such mornings call for stove top porridge with an extra spoonful of honey, Skype dates with Dallas and alone time at my desk writing pages to sweet friends across the seas.



The sting of losing our little friend is still present but losing myself in sweet moments and reminding myself she is no longer suffering is the tonic that works best for now.

This weekend I will celebrate my Thirtieth birthday with a trip to London!
I'm looking forward to bike rides and art exhibitions, good East London curry and a Jack the Ripper walk~ stay tuned ^.^

  2. I agree with Saara. These pictures are gorgeous. Love the comment you made about you and your mother pulling over the side of the road to pick wild primrose. It warmed my heart.

    I hope that you are finding comfort in losing your doggy. You are right, she is not suffering anymore.

    Sounds like you have big plans this weekend. I am anxious to hear how your trip goes and look forward to seeing those pictures.

    Sending hugs for a wonderful birthday weekend
