leftover.

finally finished off
and developed
that last roll of film from christmas.
when there was light
and ribbons
and cookies.

holiday.

instead of snow on christmas
there was ice.
thank goodness for
the lights, fire, and warmth
inside.

soon.

did you know
that it's almost a new decade?
crazy.

repeat.

his last comment
made me very glad
i took so many pictures
of our bed.

home.

when it's cold outside
i stay in
and take lots of pictures
of stuff i look at and see and use and pass by
every day.

turkey.

he rubbed it with an herb butter
and it was perfect.

holiday.

how i spent my thanksgiving.
oh, and there was food, too.

right now.

i'm sitting on one side of the couch, laptop in lap.
he sits on the other, reading a book.
and between us is a curled up kitty, snoring.
that picture of salsa really has nothing to do with much
but oh well.
i just felt the need to share
something, anything.

reflection.

doesn't it kind of look like
there's a giant cat
sitting outside the window?

windows.

when i grow up
i want a house
with lots and lots
of windows.

typical.

just another weekend
at home
with family.

zoe.

and twelve years later
she still looks like a kitten.

her.

this is me
wearing fingerless gloves
that my sister knit for me.
oh
and she can paint, too.

home.

i kind of fell in love
with the light
in my parents' house.

entryway.

i took these after a rainstorm
when i looked out the window
and saw the sky
and ran outside
in my pajamas
camera in hand.
the sky pictures didn't really turn out.
but these
of the entryway to my apartment
i really like.

happy friday!

home.

i like it here.

weekend.

it was a good weekend
with friends and drinks and bumper cars.
i have the bruises to prove it.

sub-Q.

giving tim subcutaneous fluids
is the worst part of our night
because it involves a needle
and a quivering kitty.
but when it's over, he gets treats.
and then he sleeps with me
under the covers.
