guess what?

Well, I am back. The cranes were amazing and I took lots and lots of pictures that I am waiting to develop (ten rolls of film x a crapload to get developed = more $$ than I currently have). I fell in love, all over again, with Taos and Northern New Mexico — and decided someday I want to end up out there. The light is just totally different, and the wide-open spaces with few and far between made me feel new all over again. One night I wrote in my journal that “My soul expands to fit the sky” and I meant it. I don’t think I am destined for more compressed spaces here on the populated East Coast. Not forever.

On a shopping note (and why I am completely broke), I finally got some more dress clothes for colder weather after two seams disintegrated in my favorite pair of wool pants… and a great western belt that the amazing man who owned the shop *custom* fit to me. Seriously. Now I have holes on either side of the one I currently use, which is a good thing for a girl with serious weight fluctuations. I read much more than I had any right to, given the amount of work I should be doing, and last night we celebrated St. Patty’s Day in high style. All good, so to speak.

And my best friend Joe is getting married in June!!!! All things seem possible, in these cold days right before spring comes….
