About Me

I'm getting to the point where time means a lot more to me than money. I hate throwing things away, from perfectly good but unwanted mattresses, to clothes that I never wear, to bottles that I'll carry miles to recycle, to people that don't really fit in my life anymore. Want not, waste not.
I like layers, some mystery, words that create a world, and images that evoke a story. I am in love with hills.
I'm a flower thief, If I could spend my whole day outside I would be happy, I can't tolerate intolerance, The stars never cease to amaze me, I make wishes on dandelion fluff, I love the smell of fireworks, I live life for experiences - memories are the best souvenirs, I have a problem remembering how old I am, I can't spell, and apparently everyone thinks I'm the 'nice' girl
I have a "care-free (but in a good way)" attitude on life, I stop to smell the roses, live for the moments, and am pretty darn reliable, even if that means reliably late ;-)

Something a little different today. I received a message from a reader of my blog, Christopher. He took some of my previous blog's words and transformed them into the start of a story. I've never be...

It snowed today.

I've spent the day mostly in bed and on the couch, with candle flames dancing away as the clock ticked its familiar rhythm.It's been a waste of a day; a rest I didn't need. But the weatherman told me...
