Lazy Tuesday Morning

This morning we woke up to the mail woman knocking on our door, bearing gifts! Two of our boxes had arrived from California. Yay! It was like Christmas putting everything away. Although, some of the things we thought we’d surely use were rendered useless by our concrete brick walls and ceilings, and our sliding doors.

Beneath My Feet

I find the pavement first with my toes. Its rough carapace provides my feet with a thrill not as often felt as I’d prefer. It’s been winter after all. My feet, tucked away.
