Daily Happinesses Day Four

1. The prospect of picking with Janet.
2. Dancing with JNB at the Pulse and not arguing about the toilet functioning (or not).
3. Dancing with other men at the Pulse and getting the hang of the East Coast Lindy, almost.
4. Plums.
5. Apricots.
6. The way the scent of the preserved chutney waltzes around the house.
7. How I can hear my neighbor’s radio on their back porch gliding over the lawn.
8. Getting over my cranky ass mood. Whew.
9. Cheese. Fresh mozzarella with peach salsa, especially.
10. Having a phone conversation in the basement where it was cool and very very quiet except for the water heater.

I am deep in to creating something special for our son who turns 16 this Saturday. Seems to be a watershed waltz for us all.
First he is this:

Ben and me in Hillsdale it in the winter. Can you tell?

Then he is this:

Whew. No wonder I was cranky today.
Strong winds of change blowing in.
See you in the blackberries, S

There are stars in blackberry blossoms, after a bee visits the tiny tendrils open up in to a constellation of black spots against the white petals.

I am digesting a whopperdosie of a Mastery Weekend with the School of the Womanly Arts. www.mamagenas.com Then I had Monday with my Jill and The Seven Sacred Steps. www.thesevensacredsteps.com

I am rather speechless.
My friend Susan said she is pregnant with stars.
I know how she and the blackberries feel.

Tomorrow Kathy from Upwoods and I are going to have another playdate. If you’d like to join us, take your camera and go out to find some rocks to enjoy with your eyes. We will be posting our finds here and on her site at
www.upwoods@wordpress.com. We would love to see your photos too. If you send a few to me on email, I will post them here. laundrylinedivine@gmail.com.

Steamy evening in the Berkshires.
Love, S
