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.

Jiggery Makery...presents Gloria


Todays card is a design team make for the fabulous Jiggery Makery. I just love the work of Adele, the owner of Jiggery Makery. Todays digi is called Gloria and that is just what she is...Glorious. To me she looks so full of fun and ready for anything...especially the next party. Goodness knows I wish I could get my legs up like she has. It reminded of being a child and in pt we always ended up getting into this position in riding a bike..as Miss Thraves..our pt instructor always called it. I can hear her now...come on girls..pedal faster...lol To what use this was ever going to be to us in later years...I am still waiting to find out. So now everytime I will see Gloria..she is going to make me smile and remind me that there's still lots to come in life and we should always be ready for that next party...and always ready to pedal faster.

It's a lovely day today here in the mountains and my friend Dotty is coming for a visit. I'm so excited...hopefully she will have lots of new pictures of Merlin. He is just so cute.I'm all ready for the weekend...have a pile of work to do and I've booked the Triathlon on the television...a perfect start to the weekend for me.And I'm actually looking forward to it. Sad, I know but I just love having piles of work ready to work on...I like to flick from one thing to another. One of my friends has gone to pick me up some canvases, as I'm hoping to begin one this weekend. My friend Sparkle has promised me some wire  so that I can make an armature..so expect lots of fiddling around as I begin. Crafting really is a joy to me and has made my life bearable since losing Henry. It gives me a space... a space away from the memories and upset. A space just to get my head a little more together.

Well the coffee is calling and a caffeine hit is definitely needed. For some reason all the cats are asleep..and quiet...which is very strange...it makes me wonder what on earth they are planning..lol. Mind you they could just be all worn out, because Twinkle has not shut up all night. Just thank youe lucky stars that we are not the same...the world would be a very noisy place..lol. So until tomorrow..take care and happy crafting
