Homestead.

Hey did you notice? I changed things a bit.

The photo in my header is of my quiet corner in the house. It's in the dinning area by the big picture window so I can look out to think.
Chance brought home the rocking chair as a surprise for me. I had seen in at our local Habitat for Humanity Restore, it creaks as I rock which I absolutely love. Chance's work was throwing out the furs so those came home to me as well.

On the window bench-sill- or whatever it would be called is my collection of friendly faces, wild treasures and green growing things.  You can also spy the wooden bowl Sol turned for me recently at school, it holds an emu egg. I love that bowl and how it still smells of the oil he used to polish it with. And my favorite family picture taken at a street fair.It's much like a household shrine to me.

It's a great little spot, removed from the front room with the T.V,close enough to the wood stove and at the far end of the room is the kitchen. From here keeping an eye on bubbling pots and pans in the oven is easy.

  1. Your jade tree and Christmas cactus plants (i think that's what i'm seeing) speak lovely testament to your care and watering; the bench looks so inviting, pausing for even a moment would be an oasis in a busy day. I hope you find many thruout your waking hours. The sun, the gleam of the wood, the soft furs warming your back as you rock...
