because of weather cancellations, my birthday lasted til the 28th!

snowbank grew another foot after this pic; lattice guy wires broke

sewing? not so much. but collage and photo apps – yes!

We waited for Finn to vomit at pet ER — after the FIRST brownie incident

I thought about my father’s trip to the South Pole (I wonder why) (far RT)

I thought about selling some of our stuff online

I thought about how stories choose us and vice versa

Redoing ‘Artist’s Way’ – shot this pic on an ‘artist’s date’

got busy on instagram – started #fabricinfusedlandscapes — still loving dianaphotoapp

finished SSDI five year review and resubmitted housing apps for my sister

thought more about story – specifically a white woman with black characters

I worried about power and the house and filed first ever insurance claim for damage

I wondered where we would put the snow

I worried about K’s back and my elbow

I really worried about Finn leaping (he did once)

I learned that I could clamp my legs around Finn’s neck while playing tug-of-war (seated)

I worked on quilting these houses, but it was the photoapp grabbing me – not thread

worried about far-off boys

worried about Finn getting to the pin cushion (again!)

reveled in winter salads

reveled in light – esp early, early

but also, late, late

reveled in light passing through cloth

felt joy in unexpected places (Costco parking lot)

fell in love
