Why the space

Comcast accidentally shut off our phone/internet when shutting off the lines upstairs. (Our upstairs neighbors will be moving after they return from their 5 week honeymoon which they are presently enjoying.) So, we were without landline and the internets for 48 hours.

First 24 I was glad for the "quiet". Second 24 I missed it. It came back last night and I was overloaded (141 items in my Google Reader...food for thought right there). This morning, the Elder meditation is resonating: "...remember to always get quiet first."

I have a backlog of photos and minutiae to get to...all in good time.

Insomnia last night/this morning for the first time in awhile. Fell asleep sometime after 3am and woken by the racket of a leaf blower at 8.

Me and the sibs in the fall of 1972 I'm guessing by Takai's size and ability to stay upright...but maybe it's 1971... I loved these dresses that my mom made. When I outgrew the dress she made it into a skirt for me to give it new life.
