figuring it out



This morning I'm trying to figure it all out what to wear what to bring how to plan what to say for the solstice for the shortest day of the year how to stop Sophie's seizures and answer the question what are we doing today, Mom?

  1. All difficult questions! I hope you figure it out successfully. If you can't, just go with the flow and hope for the best. I hope that for you!

    Best,
    Bonnie

  2. Hi Elizabeth, I'm late with my 'stumbling on ecstasy' post so I thought I would thank you here.

    Yes life throws many questions at us, isn't that how we learn?

    Love the pic,

    See you next time at Rebecca's place.

  3. Last night the girls made a gingerbread house barely an hour after being home.
    It was the scene of a murder , based upon their love of those cake shows and their crazy love of Criminal Minds, CSI, etc.

    I have to figure out where I went wrong ;).

  4. To wear, something comfortable and "flowing", long if possible if the party is going to be outside and following tradition people will sit around some form of fire.

    I wish I could help with the rest but you know how mundane I am, so I will leave that alone. Made Panforte di Siena yesterday and thought of you, not sure why other than the Italian connection. It turned out just like the Margherita and made me melancholic.
    But didn't stopped me from eating some :)

  5. No words of wisdom here...just tending the fire, waiting for the furnace guy.
    Beautiful photo.
    Sending love to you, as always.

  6. No words of wisdom from me either I am afraid. But here, I can surely offer you the words taped and steamed to my bathroom mirror:

    Sticking with that uncertainty, getting the knack of relaxing in the midst of chaos, learning not to panic - this is the spiritual path. P.Chodron

  7. Let me know when you figure it all out. I could use some help myself.

  8. Shortest. Unless you've moved. The winter solstice this year coincides with a lunar eclipse.

  9. With all this rain, I don't know if we will be able to see anything from the lunar eclipse. Let me know when you figured out the seizure stuff, I could use some help with that too.
