The kind of weekend...

It was the kind of weekend where sleepy mornings turned over to a cup of coffee. Or two. Then three and four. Where a moody sky reached out to the cool morning air - meeting in the middle for a spectacular public display of affection. Where the same conversation I keep having in my head tried to find its way out of my mouth but the path of least resistance led to my tear ducts instead. Where dreams of never ending tunnels and teething babies left me with the distinct feeling that I'm forgetting something. It was the kind of weekend where moments of still surrender were punctuated with a sense of urgency that comes from a constant craving for uncertainty ... or perhaps the four cups of coffee in one sitting could be the culprit. It was the kind of weekend where nothing felt quite right but everything couldn't be more perfect.

  2. That sounds like a wonderful weekend. I spent the weekend sleeping in 'til nine -- we had blue skies in the morning and cold, rainy afternoons so I was inspired first thing and then sleepy later on. Tried making my own jam for the first time; it's SO not Paleo, but we have such sad produce in the winters here in Alaska that I wanted to see if I could preserve some of the good stuff that we can grow up here. Some of my co-workers looked at me funny when I measured my weekend in cubes of pesto and jars of jam, but I will be so happy for them in January, methinks!

  5. Emphatic YES.
    I can't remember if I read or heard recently that when we're uncertain and unsure and think we're about to breakdown, that's when something remarkable happens.
