when one isn't looking


i spent the last couple of days in bed recovering from a rather nasty bout of food poisoning. i'm so grateful that it was me who decided to sample that leftover tuna pasta salad that may have been left out too long. it could have been much worse if it had been fed to my gentle elders...

while i was sleeping, it seems autumn has arrived here under the big sky and the leaves have begun to turn and let go their summery grasp upon the twigs and branches that have been their home.

it's amazing what big things can happen in so little time when one isn't looking...

    You are a kind soul.
    It seems Autumn quietly descends, unlike winter.

    1. thank you. though i wonder why not winter? under the big sky, winter usually descends as quietly as the big fluffy snowflakes it brings to blanket the sweeping fields beneath it.

  4. I hope you are feeling better! It'll be awhile before you want tuna again, huh?

    You eloquent note about the seasons passing really captures how I am feeling about parenting this month!

    1. i'm thinking tuna is no longer in my viable pantry!

      it's amazing how things move through mind and touch so many at once. i've been contemplating family a lot lately (hence my most recent post today).
