I am writing, writing, writing. Lists and questions and rambling scribbles. Which sounds rather friendly, don’t you think, rambling scribbles? I like the sound of that, the freedom implied—at least to my ears, my eyes, my heart. The freedom to carry on as long, or as short, as I like.

Being Held
I’ve been working on my essays for the holiday run of Just Five Things, and they just feel…good. I had doubts about running it this December (December 2-13) since autumn has been extra full over here. October was a month-long, online journaling workshop and then I went right into Gratitude Week.

Wrapped In Process
A very dear friend sent me gorgeous yarn and a pattern for the fingerless mitts you see above. Even in my eagerness to do the project, I stalled.
