Slow Coth is Slow.  Roots take time.  Roots.  Slow.

the Lizard Turquoise quiet in the small piece of wood from Oregon.   Resting.  Quiet.

Granddaughter hooked me up so i could watch the entire movie….The Mission.  Robert DeNiro and Jeremy Irons.   I don't know why,  but i needed it again.  It's been some years since i watched,  but i love it no less,  no less a single second,  i love this movie.  Maybe the Only one i love,  time and time again.  Why now?  I don't know.  

Those i have come to love on the East Coast of this continent,  they hunker down.  Surrender.  Maybe it's something about Surrender.  What do we surrender to?   Still,  I don't know.

Tay got in the truck this evening.  Many times.  I was unloading the bales of Grass Hay and would pat the shotgun side and finally…she jumped in.  She tasted everything with her tongue,  everything and then left,  but came back.  Again and again.  In Her Time,  she does things.  In Her Time.

    “The Mission” is fierce isn’t it…amazing shots within, and so rigerous. Maybe it’s calming and it’s message profound. I’m going to bed now but had to look before I do…hey Tay you good dog you. Night Grace.

    i love looking at the background of this cloth..i look out my window and my entire view..which is normally wide and sweeping is simply an echo of these colors..every now and then the wind..which so howled last night ..pushes the snow aside and i can see the shapes of trees..their branches the colors of the roots..somehow i find the symmetry quite comforting..we have snow..but not the destructive storm on the coast..our snow is falling vertically..not horizontally..and i am inside.
    my surrender is easy…i have had time to prepare and there is that sense of normal life, normal restraints normal patterns being taken away ….i am most fortunate..i do not have to go out..i can write that so easily..yesterday it would have been so different ..”important ” dr appts..small but needed errands and other commitments that needed to be met..all done and so the enforced staying in is a kid of gift..a granted excuse to simply be to simply go on inside and undisturbed
    . but my heart.. my heart is two miles away high on the mountain top on a mountain top away..knowing breezy meadows
    is full of animals that need to be fed and watered and sheltered..and so my mid races up and down each hopefully snowy not icy step to the high tunnels for the chickens..to the shelters and milking stations for cows and goats..to the pig pens..and i am grateful knowing there are christmas boots on feet all these things happened here before..happen every year to farmers..and of course i know that..but being here ..the reality of being here..changes my world…i want to take your beautiful roots and encircle this small world..keep this small space contained and safe..oh i wish…
    so happy for tay..to move forward in one’s own timeframe..such a gift..gentle day grace

    I got all caught up in the snow blizzard so I didn’t read closely but now I have and you many not know but TAY does! She got into the truck*, she got into the truck *, she got into the truck*** and made the shotgun seat her own SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, won’t be long before she goes to the Canyon with you and that is a very fine thing to know.

    yes. in her time. There is that lingering idea that i need to
    Teach Her, long inbred, but really, she learns as she Wants
    to know things. And now she wants to know the truck.
