Day 333...

This is divine. Though mine would have fluffier pillows.

Hoppy, I can totally make this fit in my tiny house, yes?

Day 324...

I am re-reading my Alice Sebold collection. 

I started with Lucky a couple of weeks ago. 

Next is The Lovely Bones

then The Almost Moon. 

I love her tragically beautiful writing, which includes the absolute worst in human nature, and the incredible resilience of the damaged soul.

I love that writing exists that can move me like hers.

Day fourteen - I love...my books

I have a fabulous collection of books.

unfortunately, at the moment, a large part of that collection is in a storage unit in Texas. for the past year. and that makes me a little bit sad. but this blog is about what makes me happy and not what makes me sad.

The other day my best friend's husband sent me a link, because he knows just how much I love my books. And a library like this one is a dream I've held since I was young and in pigtails. One day, I hope to have a wall to wall to wall to wall floor to ceiling library. with a window seat full of soft pillows and warm throws and a lovely desk with a fat comfy chair to write at.

one day...
