artandsoul: June 2011

Tuesday, June 28, 2011. After a delightful ferry ride across the Bay of Fundy we meandered our way through New Brunswick toward Woodstock. We found a sweet diner open for lunch and consulted the map about where to cross back over into the US, looking for parts of Maine we hadn't seen yet. And what else was there? Why, an abandoned Customs House! With not a fence, or a prohibitive sign in sight. So, Joe pulled up (over my objections) and got out to inspect. I mean, why didn't they take their stuff? Shatte...

Monday, June 21, 2010. Go ahead. Sing it. "From the Redwood Forest, to the Gulf Stream waters, this land was made for you and me.". Welcome to my world. This little gem has been boring a hole in my head for days now. But I will take it, yes I will. Because there is something so majestic, so gorgeous, so ancient and so amazing about The Redwoods that my brain is a paltry sacrifice to such an altar! I'm not sure what it is that is different. And then we came to the Redwoods. I could not stop staring. He to...

Growing Tomatoes From Seed: All My Days
http://switters-growingtomatoes.blogspot.com/2014/05/all-my-days.html
Growing Tomatoes From Seed. Monday, May 26, 2014. Many a night I found myself with no friends standing near. I shook my hands. What am I doing here. All of these days. For I look around me. And my eyes confound me. And it's just too bright. As the days keep turning into night". Too gloomy.

And you know wherever I am.

Sunday, March 13, 2011. Sheesh. Who knew when they asked you "Better, or worse; sickness or health: richer or poorer? They also meant: Are you willing to act in amateur dramas on Sunday afternoons in front of strangers? My husband is taking a class in the process of becoming a Deacon in the Catholic Church. They have studied The Book of Job, and each class member has to do some Parish presentation on this book - and so we will do an adapted play. Curse God and die! Monday, March 7, 2011.

artandsoul: Second Question
http://artandsoul-writing.blogspot.com/2011/08/second-question.html
Saturday, August 13, 2011. Within each of your Groups do you see commonalities? I think the first commonality for me is that all of the items in all of the groups are specific to me. I had something particular in mind, even though I wrote a rather abstract word. I've been to each city, landscape and interior. and I wear those items of clothing, and am surrounded by those colors. The landscapes are all ones that are archetypal to me. Places I have been and that have swooned me. I can see the grand...And t...

Monday, February 14, 2011. Whose hand is this? I am sitting at a desk. Writing in a journal. Thoughts coming fast and furious, pen scratching across the page and I have an awareness of this hand on the desk. It is wrinkled, old. The fingers are stubby. There are freckles and age spots. The skin is papery. And did I mention wrinkled? Whose hand is this? It can’t be mine. My hands are strong and capable. They wash and carry and love and write and haul and choose and comfort and gesture. We have tales to te...

Sunday, May 29, 2011. When we travel we try to stay away from chain restaurants. This is pretty easy if you stay on back roads, and go through small towns. In this area, Boone is actually the "big" city - but it's a college town so there are some really interesting, eclectic choices. Last night we ate at the Hob Nob Farm Cafe. It's a world cafe, and their menu goes from sushi to burritos to thai curry! We did not have pie. Saturday, May 28, 2011. We left Tallahassee on Thursday morning, determined to get...

artandsoul: October 2010
http://artandsoul-writing.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 30, 2010. Time and time again . Having just spent a week in one of my most favorite places on earth, I am reminded of the breadth of time and depth of inner space. I can forget about that when my world becomes compressed into the quotidian demands of a busy life. I'm struck by the great fortune of my life to be able to spend a week being still, yet moving; being silent, yet speaking; being . really just being . and in that place finding the grace and abundance of love that is.

Growing Tomatoes From Seed. Monday, March 10, 2014. There's some property there I'm interested in. But mostly, being painfully, brutally honest, I miss:. 1 My friends there. 2 The mild winters there. Basically in that order. It's an itch I may need to scratch, either to get it out of my system, or to see if I irritate it enough to let it get infected. A road trip is being planned tentatively. Moonpie riding shotgun, Cat holding down the fort. Or, you know, maybe Vermont.). Links to this post.
