leaping into march


A perfect storm of odd karma swallowed me up in February. I lost my way, I lost my voice and I was a bit quiet here at sew and sow life. I would like to leave the details behind, along with the February days crossed off my calendar. I know from reading some of my favorite blogs that I have not been alone in this February funk.

Today is an extra day, and with snow falling gently here in Connecticut, it feels like a gift. Batman is in Mexico on business, so Henry and I are hunkered in. It feels like a good day to dust myself off, take a few deep breaths and turn toward a new month and a fresh outlook.  

Leap with me?

  2. Can you imagine anything more refreshing than green? Love the way you rendered the fern ... is that paper? Perfect backdrop that birch bark.

  3. Love the new banner photo- did you invest in that new camera you were coveting? The quality looks great. I keep wanting to call you and then realize that the hour is silly for such things- should tell you something about when I surface from my study schedule! Looking forward to resurfacing at home soon- after this crazy term! Thanks for reminding me to take deep breaths, both during mono and after :) xoxo
