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.

31 Days of Halloween.....Day 28



Today's pages are from my Halloween book which I have made for the 31 days challenge. If I knew more about computers I would have put them side by side as they appear in the book but my skills on the laptop are not the best..lol. The thought of these pages was my memories of Halloween parties with my friends. A lot of alcohol and food was consumed and we always had a great time. All the ladies that I've used are from the fabulous team over at Lacy Sunshine. When I began the pages I just couldn't decide which lady to use..so I did all three..lol. I just love all the little details in the images.
Here in the mountains today the mists have come down and it's drizzling. All the cats keep looking out of the window in disgust..lol. I'm feeling very virtuous today as I gave the parlour a good hoovering. And I can honestly say that the cats were disgusted with that as well..lol. Jeffrey spent most of the time battering the hoover and the rest of the time he was trying to eat any cat biscuits off the floor before I hoovered them up. One of my old dogs Hilly hated the hoover even more than Jeff and every time I put it on she would attack it. I used to have a dyson and she once ripped the front bumper off it in temper. I wouldn't have minded but she wasn't a big dog and the dyson was quite heavy..she was determined to get her own way..lol.

Well the coffee is calling and then I'll get down to some work. I was intending to get my brushos out yesterday but I had visitors and thought that they wouldn't appreciate being covered in multi coloured pigments..lol. So I'm all ready to get messy and really looking forward to it. So until tomorrow..take care and happy crafting.
