at the doctor for a sore throat.
they made her wear a face mask
she got mad at me
for taking a picture
“don’t put it on your blog, mom”
she pleaded
but she knows that
i will anyway
(at least its not on the “other blog”)

they sat out
slowly molding
slowly rotting
while the sun
baked them

at her best pal’s
birthday bash
she rubbed her hair
with the balloon
until she had
one heck of a mohawk.
my little punk rock girl.

we are downsizing
all of the kids toys
this castle is one of the
things they play with,
sometimes,
but are willing to part with.

Computer issues mean halloween pictures are lost, hopefully to be found later.

she had never seen lazy town
but this costume,
pink wig and sparkly pink dress
fit her,
and when she put them on,
she was transformed into
a rock star.

new shoes for me
boiled wool, seal brown,
slip on keens
the most comfortable shoe,
ever.

one day we went
on an adventure
to down town mesa,
to visit the fiber factory
only its not open on
mondays
so we couldn’t buy yarn.
good way to save money.
(the big pink chair is right in front of the fiber factory)
