May 7 & May 8

It is time to start a new. Life shock. Life shock. I want to pursue something true. I want my talents to be utilized, appreciated. Life shock. I want to love what I do. I won't love it all the time, but when I absolutely loath whatever it is I'm doing, I want there to be some part of why I'm sticking around. Cause I know that when I really want something, I will stay. I will make it through that day, conversation, interaction. Life shock. I will get there. Where? Here. In me. Life shock. Breathe. There is time. There is no rush. Breathe. Today. Right now. Here. In love.

Red & White

Red & white patterned cotton fabric makes me beyond happy to see, let alone touch. My fingertips want to automatically traces the pattern, as if it were raised or a different texture. Looking at my almost-finished, very first quilt, I could sew with red thread--the red of Valentine bunting--over and over, a pattern, a stitch, the red, white and pink coming together.

Inspired Laundry

Yesterday, I did the laundry. Yes, it was just the laundry, but it was inspired laundry.

Four loads of whites, lights, towels and darks shoved into my little Indesit washing machine, Ecover powder tablets and softener, and no dryer. Just the radiator racks, the laundry horse, the sock holder, multiple hangers, and the clothesline.

With the wind and the sun and inspiration. Even in the middle of London, me and nature can help each other out.
