A few nice things
1. I had my first conversation with a wonderful potential doula. She was thoughtful and wise and asked me some questions I hadn’t really thought through yet. Before the overview-ultrasound yesterday (in which they check for such essentials as two sides of the brain and heart) part of me was postponing planning for this baby. It seemed a little far fetched—really, another baby? Prove it. Now I have 12 black and white photos to prove it and I feel ready to engage.

3. This poem by Richard Brautigan:
Oh, Marcia,
I want your long blonde beauty
to be taught in high school,
so kids will learn that God
lives like music in the skin
and sounds like a sunshine harpsichord.
I want high school report cards
to look like this:
Playing with Gentle Glass Things A
Computer Magic A
Writing Letters to Those You Love A
Finding out about Fish A
Marcia’s Long Blonde Beauty A+!

I covet all of Studio Deseo. I grew up with the girl who makes it, crazy talented family.

Right?? I was just reading her interview on Martha Stewart’s blog and she was talking about her grandfather…the whole family seemed amazing! It’d be really fun to do crafts inspired by her style, though mine would fall far far from the mark.

ha, me too. I am obsessed with her grandfather. her brother, Kori, is an amazing artist too. Hers is the style that is so deceptively simple, until you try to recreate it… Must.get.gorgeous.home.studio, stat.

P.S. since you’re one of my most favorite writers/bloggers in the ‘sphere, would you have any interest in doing this questionnaire I put together for my blog?? It would be at your leisure of course
Have a look and see if you would want to do it! If so I’ll email you the questions!

yes definitely!

Even though Richard’s Marcia is blonde, this poem makes me feel special (she does spell “Marcia” the same as me after all).

Marcia, I have to say that while I was typing that out, I *totally* thought of you!

I love everything about this list. What wonderful things! I think I’m going to have to go check out Studio Deseo right this instant.
Happy Snowstorm!
