Change on the wind

The summer is over and I neglected this poor blog.

I have a lot of plans for the winter, lots of projects I'd like to start (and finish!)

I'm hoping to embark on an adventure towards a more self-sufficient and sustainable life.

So, stay tuned. Once I move back home and get things settled I plan to update lots more!.

Magnify the Most Difficult Details

Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you

One day you're certain of what you're doing

You've planned the next bit out

Even given some thought to next year

Then Life sneaks up on you

and trips you

things get all muddled

you're not so certain of your plans anymore

if only it were easier

it's such a sensitive situation

it is though inevitable

i always knew

i had hoped, and thought perhaps that

it would have lasted longer

a chasm has been torn asunder

it's disintegrating

-----

if only to demolish the old

to make way for the new

it does not come without a price

-----

i realize now

what it could be like

----

it's simple a matter of capturing it.....

I'm addicted

I'm addicted to color.

i am.

i need it

it's an intricate part of who i am

hell is a white room with white doors and white windows and a white world

heaven is color

glorious color

i adore color

a brilliant deep red is by far my favorite

rich chocolate brown is a close second

i like yellow greens

blue greens

turqoise

teal

cerulean

robins egg blue

sky blue

i like yellow

i like gold

i like purple

i like pink

the only color i really don't like is a deep forest green

i require color

like i require air
