all flowers in time bend towards

the sun i know you say

that there's no-one for you but

here is one all flowers in

time bend towards the sun I

know you say that there's  no-one 

for you but here is one 

here is one here is one

I love to see the dawn rising over the Atlantic

ribbons of colored sky

reflecting in blue water

my mother's dog Sally is spending the night

we love her

my sister is having surgery on Wednesday

CANCER SUCKS

 Holly will be entering the doorways of Sloan-Kittery for surgery next week

and then re-entering the world of chemotherapy
 (this is not her first surgery and will not be her first time dealing with chemo.)
I wish that these doors would remain closed for her
for everyone
let us continue to support the science 
that will one day find a cure for this
terrible terrible disease

    I'm sorry to hear about your sister, it's such a difficult battle to fight. Good she has you and her family to surround her with love. I remember sunrise over the Atlantic, then for 40 years, I had sunsets in the Pacific, now I have the mountains. All glorious.

    I don't think there are many families out there that cancer hasn't touched in some way. All the best to your sister, and hugs to you. Wendy x

First Snow

  Happy birthday to my beautiful daughter, Bonnie. She brings me so much joy. My first snow day of the year! I work at a Montessori school and we are getting our first big snow storm of the year so.... SNOW DAY!!  I made my own hummus last weekend. It was delicious. I added a little bit of turmeric along with the chickpeas, lemon, tahini, and garlic.  I plan on eating a more plant based diet this year. It's only been a week and I'm already feeling better. I did eat two slices of mushroom pizza last night and ended up having heartburn so it will be a good long time before I eat dairy again.  Each month one of our families brings in a bouquet of flowers.  We cut most of the stems off and place them on a tray which we place on the children's table.  We place another tray with a very small pitcher and a few very small bud vases.  The child fills up the pitcher using water from the bathroom sink, brings it back to the table and pours the water in a bud vase of their choosing.

Oh Little Town of Bethlehem

Image
  My daughter, Hannah's house is just so pretty. It's a large, Victorian era duplex with beautiful light. Some of the windows have been replaced but there are a few old leaded windows that are old and beautiful and the light is so soft that I am always taking pictures. This is an sweet old table that she picked up in her travels. She put some vintage Christmas ornaments in a terra cotta pot and next to that is a lemon tree plant. The whole thing sits under her kitchen windows. So pretty. My husband and I went to her house on Christmas morning. She served us delicious French toast and mimosas. ~  A friend of mine flew over Marblehead on her way home from vacation and had the wherewithal to take a photo.  It made me think of Oh Little Town of Bethlehem.  This year I was able to purchase a poinsettia through my church in honor of my mother. It was comforting to know that she was represented during the Christmas Eve Mass. I had a chance to rearrange the living room a little bit. I
