I bought an old, wool army blanket just like this at a garage sale in Fayetteville that I drove past yesterday morning. I bought it for $1. The one in this picture is selling for $35 and another one on ebay is selling for $50. People are crazy/I have a good eye. Both/and.

One evening toward bedtime, we went outdoors to watch for shooting stars and to talk. There was a bite in the air, and we took blankets and wore elderly fur coats which we keep in the pantry hall for dog walking and star watching. We lay on the lawn on the north of the house, looking across a large pasture to the trees and the hills beyond.

EAMES: The Architect and The Painter - Trailer (by firstrunfeaturesnyc)

Apparently this came out a month or two ago. Straight to the top of my watch list.

This is the brightest bedroom of life and I could never fall asleep in it, but despite that fact, I’m into it.

cabinporn: Enchanted Valley, Olympic National Park, Washington, USA.  This was built as a wilderness lodge before the park was established, but now serves as a ranger station and emergency hiker shelter.  It’s reached via a 13-mile hike up the Quinault River.

Instructions for living a life. Pay attention. Be astonished. Tell about it.

I’m so glad Christopher Plummer won best supporting actor at the Golden Globes for this movie. He deserved it. And his acceptance speech was so funny and endearing and I love him and I loved this movie.  If you haven’t seen it, you should go watch it. And you can watch the preview if you click this picture. Because I hooked you up.

It’s not that I want to be someone else…. I just wish I had a few ounces of extra money to do a few of the things that I reallllly want to do. Like renovate an old cabin type space and have a secluded, little creative corner.

I need to work on patience. And acquire an interest in the types of work that pay better :)

My most recent creation. This wine rack was built from old reclaimed walnut and some random scrap metal. To be honest, I really like it. haha 

I would love to build you one. 

Now is your time- Walk closely with the people you love, and with people who believe that… life is a grand adventure. Don’t spend time with people who make you feel less than you are. Don’t get stuck in the past, and don’t try to fast-forward yourself into a future you haven’t yet earned. Give today all the love and intensity and courage you can.

Homophobia is like racism and anti-Semitism and other forms of bigotry in that it seeks to dehumanize a large group of people, to deny their humanity, their dignity and personhood.

Coretta Scott King

I said this last year but I think it’s important that Martin Luther King’s counterpart, his wife, is recognized as well on this day. She has also done so much, not only for civil rights, but for humanity in general.

But unless we are creators, we are not fully alive. What do I mean by creators? Not only artists, whose acts of creation are the obvious ones of working with paint or clay or words. Creativity is a way of life, no matter our vocation or how we earn our living. Creativity is not limited to the arts.
