Someone is finally staying with me and I couldn’t be happier!

8/23/2010: Things I do

Things I do… especially lately…

-Make sock monkey/kitties like the one above.

-Read awesome books, such as The Hours.  Beautiful, tragic, amazing.  I’m ashamed it’s taken me so long to read it.  But glad Bess urged me to tackle it.

-Drink coffee.  Today with my dear friend, Jen.  In theory a working coffee date, in reality a catch-up date.

-Cook delicious meals using tomatoes from the farmers’ market.

-Go for long evening walks.

-Think, plan, do stuff for Out for Justice.

Saturday morning after brunch…

Precious



Precious, originally uploaded by ellajphillips.

Unexpectedly great day. At Elana’s softball game I had the wonderful opportunity to meet Rylie Joseph… Kathy & Lee-Ann’s beautiful, perfect 16 day old son. He is tiny and perfect and amazing. Few things are more wonderful than holding a baby- a bundle of innocence and sweetness.

I also had a wonderful brunch with Sara & Dan… followed by book shopping with them. Also a favorite activity. I came away with a couple treats to myself, including a book of folktales by Calvino.

A little work, some gelato & coffee, and I’ll be ending the day with reading.

Out of nowhere… a good day in this less than perfect summer.

I know, I know… a lack of updates lately.  I’m just not feeling it.  I terribly miss my cat, having my own apartment, and my career.  I’m happy Keiko is being taken care of, that I have somewhere warm & welcoming to live temporarily, and that I’m working part-time at Enjoy… but I really miss my life.  Sigh… hopefully one of the three things changes very soon.

In other news- check out the cutest Japanese eraser that we got in at the store.  Today I devoted time to making a wall display of these cuties.

Thursday… the best day of the week. Tomatoes, blueberries, red pepper, french bread, fresh cheese, and one peach.

I am fairly confident I could live on coffee & gelato.

Simple joys… right?
