Coming down out of the freezing sky with its depths of light, like an angel, or a Buddha with wings, it was beautiful, and accurate, striking the snow and whatever was there with a force that left the imprint of the tips of its wings — five feet apart — and the grabbing thrust of its feet, and the indentation of what had been running through the white valleys of the snow — and then it rose, gracefully, and flew back to the frozen marshes to lurk there, like a little lighthouse, in the blue shadows — so I thought: maybe death isn’t darkness, after all, but so much light wrapping itself around us — as soft as feathers — that we are instantly weary of looking, and looking, and shut our eyes, not without amazement, and let ourselves be carried, as through the translucence of mica, to the river that is without the least dapple or shadow, that is nothing but light — scalding, aortal light — in which we are washed and washed out of our bones.

Rosey Hearts...When a woman needs coffee


Todays creation is a make for the wonderful Rosey Hearts design team. I loved working with this image and felt that it was perfect for how I feel when I'm in need of a caffeine hit..lol I have coloured the image with my promarkers, cut her out and attached her to some black card. I have attached some magnetic strip to the back of the card and she will be living on my fridge as a warning to all that enter my kitchen,,lol. If you pop over to the Rosey Hearts Blog, the winners of the last blog candy giveaway have been announced and there is a new givaway beginning. While I'm on I'll also just remind you that on the Rosey Hearts Challenge Blog there is a current challenge running..'Things with Wings' and this will run until the 15th May. So there's plenty of time to enter a creation of your own. All the artwork for Rosey Hearts is drawn by the super talented Melissa...there are designs to suit everyone..so it's well worth taking the time to take a look.

The weather has really changed today...it's like being back in the autumn. The mists of Brigadoon are hanging low down the mountains and it's raining. The cats are all in and Reg has just been for a walk. It really doesn't bother Reg if it's raining. It's as if he doesn't notice the rain. Mind you he doesn't take a lot of notice of anything besides food..lol. He can be fast asleep and you can call him...nothing..but should you happen to rustle a packet of crisps...by goodness, he up and in your face..lol.

Well the coffee is calling and I have a need for a little caffeine hit before I go down to cook dinner. It's going to be a suitable meal for a Saturday night...steak burger on a bun with salad and chips. I'm quite looking forward to it. The fact that I may have to eat it with a knife and fork isn't even going to put me off tonight. So until tomorrow...take care and happy crafting.
