About Dreaming...

Playing the part of the dreamer has been easy these days.

All I have done is rhymed words that I am certain no one will ever hear. 

Write stories that no one will ever read. 

Characters that no one will ever know.

I have made up worlds and scenarios.

Where real witches and fairies reside.

Created love stories with some drama and

even came up with some bitter sweet endings.

Spoken words have left me they all reside in my mind.

All these colorful feelings sparkle and shine within...

Like confetti they travel in this head of mine and if you could

see inside you would see the beautiful snow-globe my mind has become.

How enchanted it all is and how like ripples in water they play out in real life...

Baby M is a super fan of Super Why and she wanted a cape like his... Best I could do with what I had around.

But when I try to speak the words like particles of dust highlighted by sunlight which to me looks like confetti they disappear. When I try to force those words out of that sacred place they reside from my wine colored lips there is no sound.

So I let my fingers do the dance creating songs and poetry.

My hands build clouds and write stories that no one ever will read.

With characters that no one will ever know.

Happy Thursday from rainy Savannah...

Stay Sweet.

Nightlight...

Before the month ends a quick idea.
I needed a nightlight so fast that I did not take my camera out and
used the cellphone for the pictures. All I can think of is the possibilities.
This one also doubles as a chalkboard I used chalkboard paint.
Now she can leave herself a note to turn off the lights.

Tomorrow is the first of December and our tree is going up.
Happy Weekend.

Hello Lover...

The tribe is becoming the champions of all the seasons. We move along and navigate through it swiftly as we were the cast of The Swan. Organically like the earth we shift quickly and adapt even quicker...
I started writing this post on Sunday where the sounds of football and the kitchen pots ruled the airwaves. Something about food simmering on a kitchen stove and the breeze carrying the aroma of your Sunday best throughout the neighborhood...



Nice and slow my day began and nice and slow it ended...
I am wearing flannel pants all my windows are open the cool crisp air blows making my living room curtains dance gracefully like a middle eastern duo of belly dancers. Unison they move along and it makes me happy. My home is breathing and it feels alive...
The birds serenades us as well as the sports announcer and it's all so good so familiar... So homey ... So right...



Friday date night was fabulous and Octoberfest delivered for us...

Artisan at Work...

Reconnecting makes us better people.
Makes us better parents and friends and everything in between...

Husband and I 

We played... We joked and We pretended...



Pretended this was our boat...



Dreaming is free and us dreaming that one day we could sail away into the sunset even if it's just for a minute makes us better people...



Now we know that we really want a boat... We would love nothing more than to be the wanderlust king and queen... Sailing all seven seas...





For Dinner...We settled for Burgers and Sweet Potatoes fries... Because Hamburgers come from Hamburg Germany and Sweet Potato Fries is how we do it in the south of the US.



Sailing...
October arrived like an old lover...
One that I was happy to see...
We are now sailing through the Fall season we will make sure to stop and enjoy all the sweet things the Fall has to offer...



Hope your weekend was filled with nothing but Fall season goodness...
Happy Monday!

a swan…paris…the museum… and a giveaway…

Why would anyone make such a big deal about going to the movie theater?

Well, I will…

I have not gone to a movie theater since Carrie Bradshaw wore that big bird on her head and was left at the altar by Mr. Big on her wedding day… to later be married to Mr. Big but this time at the courthouse with no bird on her head to be found. I, like, Carrie Bradshaw exchanged vows at a courthouse. There were no girlfriends, designer dresses or soundtrack music present but it was ours and so exquisite…

Back to the movies…

My friend Cathy took me out to a night at the movies… We watched the Black Swan if your are a ballet dancer or a lover of art this film can be so intense and the word of the day… exquisite…

I always plug my town Savannah,GA there is something about this city… and you guessed it… It’s exquisiteness.

Savannah hosts museum Sundays where every museum, historical park, etc., is free admission.

This girl ran to the Jepson Arts Center but before the museum she stopped at Broughton St… 

Broughton St. (The Paris Market… love this store) where we shopped had sweet treats and enjoyed a lovely afternoon…

“Life is a spell so exquisite that everything conspires to break it” ~ E. Dickinson

“I believe the nicest and sweetest days are not those on which anything very splendid or wonderful or exciting happens, but just those that bring simple little pleasures, following one another softly, like pearls off a string.”

We renewed our New Years Resolutions…

Can you see her pointing at hers?!  I told her she should know she is already my star...

We were inspired… and so many ideas transpired… we will be sewing soon…

Where there is love and inspiration, I don't think you can go wrong…

I hope your weekend was filled with sweet moments…

because…

Because I did not know what to do with the pieces of Maia’s crib…

Bottom of Crib... Mattress holder...

Because I like to recycle…
Because I think it’s a good idea…

Because for now my memories and mementos are placed on the bed where she dreamed for the 1st time…






Just because…
