You and Me With Tea
What 2015 Taught Me
Happy New Year by the way….a little late I know. I have been quiet the last few days. Taking a Sabbath of sorts. Just back from a facial with my amazing esthetician and friend, Charity from Katana Spa & Salon and am finally beginning to make some sense of things without turning into a big pile…

It has been a while since our last chat. Life has been a bit long and hard lately. ‘Tis the season for as much stress as one can handle without snapping and being on the news. Interestingly the stress I have been under has very little to do with the season so to speak. It is more…

Today is the second day after Thanksgiving. The second day I have had totally and completely off. It is strange to have space to just be. It feels decadent.

I have been seeking the light shining through since the Spring. Any chance I get I have been taking pics much like this where the sun is peeking through the clouds. Maybe it’s because life has felt stormy for a good many months. The story I have told myself is that life has felt uncertain. But…

It’s a gorgeous Columbus Day weekend. So many trees around town are like this one…in transition. I stopped this afternoon captivated by its beauty and couldn’t help but see the my likeness in its leaves. Each leaf gorgeous and shimmering in the sun. Each leaf knowing that change awaits and not exactly sure which day, which…

It’s Fall now in Boston and what that means is that it is rapidly turning from blistering hot to bone chilling cold. This beautiful tree on my street is usually the first to change color.
