I just put my shop "on vacation" for a month so I can spend much needed time "being" - with family, friends, home, and garden. It will be a change to take a break from all the doing...I'm sure I'll be doing a quilt here and there during the month, but I want to see what it's like not to for a bit...although truth to tell I'm already missing it! I'll be around in the garden till the end of the month, but then I'm going on a 100% technology fast for a couple of weeks. I've done that periodically and it is sooooo wonderful!

So pleased to read of the balance you are making. Love the tenderness it has brought to your first 2 dailies: May 8 and 9 are so beautiful; and I'm sure there's a message in the hieroglyphics of May 10th !

You are taking in language, like air, so necessary for the keeping us alive and creative!

I agree with you about being and doing . Sometimes you just have to stop and be and I don't think we do that enough. A few days ago I just stopped for two whole days and read. Can't remember when I last did that and I think if we did more often, there would be no need to do it for two whole days!

Not a cloud in the sky, perfect temperatures. The bottle of Bogle Petit Syrah is open on the counter....you can pour yourself a glass on the way out to the back!
