one day late, but really, any day is a good day for this.

"For You, Friend", by Ted Kooser

this Valentine's Day, I intend to stand
for as long as I can on a kitchen stool
and hold back the hands of the clock,
so that wherever you are, you may walk
even more lightly in your loveliness;
so that the weak, mid-February sun
(whose chill I will feel from the face
of the clock) cannot in any way
lessen the lights in your hair, and the wind
(whose subtle insistence I will feel
in the minute hand) cannot tighten
the corners of your smile. People
drearily walking the winter streets
will long remember this day:
how they glanced up to see you
there in a storefront window, glorious,
strolling along on the outside of time.

yowza. car accidents suck. however, as the words of the police officer run through my head: "any accident you can walk away from is a good accident" i think, yeah, that's right. i'm okay. shooken up, scared, sore body from the collision/impact -- at a loss as to how the other woman is now saying it's my fault when she crossed in front of me & blammy! right into me going straight, is baffling. but again, i walked away. thank goodness for that.

i teach knitting to a bunch of kiddos in an after school knitting club at my school. they love it; mostly though, they love to gab & chat & eat snacks while *sorta* knitting. however, this little smart kiddo comes in with this - knitting a pretty awesome scarf with pencils. that, i like :)

improvise. adapt. overcome.

my beach combing life can be called complete now i think; never satiated, but complete. i've been wanting to find a sea urchin for-ever. was so excited to see this pretty all by himself, in perfect condition, just waiting for me to take him home & treasure him & place him in a very honored spot on my dresser.
