winter finch

little random flitterings, like the birds in my yard.

tonight is a sweet show for a good cause. the boys of a rad local band are putting it on and calling it "Placerday in Valenville" along with a cd release of a collection that features much music by my friends and family.

all to benefit the center for violent-free relationships.

joey and emily will be singing their baleful harmonies.

more good stuff:

my friend mallory, who recently moved to florida, made an etsy treasury featuring placerville artisans and vintagettes. it makes me proud and it makes me love our town in spite of it all.

i gather piles of books, tarot cards, journal, pens, clipboard, magazine...and go outside.

there are birds birds birds everywhere.

sunlight comes through the bare twisty-turvy oak trees and darin tends a burn pile.

i hear frogs making their quirky calls from our lazy pond, owls hootings softly in the afternoon far away.

i wear long wispy dresses and make plans for the night.

last night i made a big pot o soup and we shared with our dear ones, jorden and becky whose baby is still not here! wish her luck and blessings my dears. she is a week overdue. but cheerful as ever.

i am readying the gypsy barrack as a springtime booknook.

and photographing shoes for my shop,

of all walks of life.

emily made us a little joint vintage venture on facebook; if you're on there come "like" us!

 

darin and jamie play accordion and make up songs across the house from me.

howling and making up grand entrances for the epic dust extravaganza next week!

me and the cats snuggling and reading, these quiet days full of smoke and light.
