things making me happy: part 2.
Posted on | December 9, 2011 | No Comments
-Our crazy imperfect Christmas tree (even more imperfect now with Poppy who likes to climb in it and knock it over).
- My undying love for Kenny Rogers… still as strong as it was when I was 9.
- Watching this today. Thanks Mia!
- Thinking about moving into my studio space. Yes! I have a studio. It’s the same one I fell in love with over the summer. So happy that my friend Catherine has offered to rent one of the rooms to me.
- Allllllmost being finished my big secret project (it’s a book!) . The end is definitely in sight!
happy birthday monkey girl!

Our little monkey turns 3 tomorrow. My parents are visiting so we decided to have an early celebration last night. I know I say the same thing each year… but I can’t believe she’s 3! Where does the time go? That’s how old Sosi was when we moved here and I can’t help comparing them. They seem worlds apart but also exactly the same.
Happy birthday my sweet sweet girl.
tail warmers and Christmas crafting…
Posted on | November 29, 2011 | 1 Comment
This past weekend I dove into the Christmas crafting head on. I’m not sure if my family members always enjoy the homemade gifts they get from me, but each year I simply can’t help myself. I just gotta make stuff! Sosi, inspired by her mama, decided to start a little project of her own using this nifty little spool knitter from some friends.
Early Monday morning she came happily bounding into my room crazy eyed and exclaimed she had been up since 4:00 knitting this tail warmer for Angelo! I rolled over to my husband exasperated, and wondered out loud why on earth she would do such a crazy thing (not the tail warmer *so awesome*, the 4:00 wake up part ) and my husband just answered, “… well, she IS your daughter.” Ah, yes… she is.
friends are nice!

things I’m loving…
Posted on | November 14, 2011 | 7 Comments
walking my favourite 6 year old and 7 seven old home from school,
these beautiful days we’ve been having,
this breathtaking place where we live,
the little lady she’s becoming,
the quirkiness of her,
how much fun they have together,
everything about this man I’ve been lucky enough to have in my life for the past 16 years,
the pure joy these two bring,
this secret project that i’m loving to work on everyday… hoping to share more here soon,
my new glasses that are making working on said project much easier,
the magic that happens when you take the time to enjoy these little things each day. While we sat here watching this sunset Ila told me from the backseat of the car I had the the sunset in my hair.
Some other things I’m loving :
all three seasons of “Bored to death”. The cuteness and chemistry of the 3 main characters makes me very very happy.
this website: Day after day in Nod
I can’t stop listening to Feist’s new album “metals”. I’m in love.
What are you loving these days?
