Returning to the web…

I believe a “turning point” visited North today. The drywall sanding is close to its end. The dust particles permeate everything.

Above is not a face plate… it is the dust surrounding a face plate after I picked it up from the counter.

Tomorrow the prime begins. I am playing with wall color here…3 different colors…dark colors. Hidden Gem has my interests peaked. Also, the color Mink. Dark tones, if chosen correctly can create a solitude of peace in a space, like nothing other.

Candle magic. It exists in the most challenging situations if you believe…
my candle magic tonight.

O8.22…tonight’s candle magic

Our candle magic found gratitude tonight. Gratitude to one another… talking/recognizing how we have worked so hard to respect each other…listening / learning as we discussed our differences creating North.

We have finally found the same page. As I return on Monday to hug  Bob, Aunt Irena, and her tribe, Frank, and Uncle Peter… I will obviously giggle. My imagination and creativity has been a godsend.

70…walk with me

I must take a pause from all that I have been sharing.  I moved into another decade today.  This is profound. It is not like going from  30 to 40… 40 to 50 or even 50 to 60. It is profound…standing taller than any other decade because I now am who I worked my life to become. 

I see how  few decisions that I made along this journey had so much impact in creating who I am. 

The decision to go to college. The friends I gravitated to when I was there.  The men that interested me … the man I chose to marry. Once married, our mutual decision  not to have children. 

I find my life  has been built around these critical decisions.

Seventy is bringing all of my past into view tonight.   It is a good night. I am not disappointed because I continue to love my me.

…tonight’s candle magic

…the beauty of candle magic is that I never know how it will enter my evening.  I only know that when it joins me, and with those with me, it changes the direction of conversation into words that we are actually learning about one another… not talking at each other.

This is Kip’s and my candle magic tonight.
