here, it is monday evening.

there is a definite chill to the air and i am crossing my fingers that we will see snow. i am really missing snow lately. i spend a lot of time curled up on the couch with blanket and book and tea and puppy. there is something so peaceful about doing that exact same thing with a white blanket on the ground and snowflakes on the window.

in this moment, i find myself thinking of things like love and peace and compassion and beautifully decorated sugar cookies. i am also harboring a desire for red toenails and an afternoon movie date all by myself, no dogs allowed.

may you feel, down to the center of your bones, that you are loved.
