am way better at them than last year,  this time,  but still….

and stitching the blade of grass.  Not a lot to photograph about that.    I watch the light in the world outside the window here for signs of lightening,  first to make a run to feed the buck Goats and also,  on these kinds of days,  to throw some feed for the Doe s.   They do run out,  in the inbetween moments to forage,  but those moments are short.  So they get alfalfa too.  Then,  i watch,  estimating the change in Light,  and make a run to Lakeside Market.  I have this potato from the Wall Garden.  French Fries,  but i have no oil.   There's some tension in the day.  Tomorrow  morning.  French Fries.  Melted cheese and ketchup.  One more day of all day Rain,  then reprieve for a while.  I learn to  accomodate  the Ways of this Place.

    That potato looks delicious. Hoping the rain stops long enough to run to the store!! We had a brief but spectacular warm spell today but tonight it’s raining and getting cold. So, ice tomorrow.
    I stitched on that tea bag piece–adding Deb’s magical thread. We went out for dumplings on Chinese New Year’s Eve and they were delicious. Year of the Pig.

    The car in my dream was stolen last night. My mother knew who took it but she wouldn’t tell me.

    Waiting for lightening is inherently a tense time. Or exciting? I can almost smell the ground.
