the future

i just got really excited for when david works again and we have enough money to live in a house with room to move. i miss my large kitchen.

pea soup

i really wish i could sew right now so i could make this dress. it's perfect.

hair

i wish my hair was long really really really really bad.

i wish

david,

i'm sorry i don't have this body:




for you and for me.

bird

i've wanted an antique cage and some little finches for a while. i like chirping and they'd look so pretty!

dream a little dream

right now i feel achey and stressed

i would love a bath, my bed, a book and a dinner, made by my husband

i can dream, can't i?

WY

i want to be in wyoming, renting a house in the spring time. well i want it to be spring time right now.

ants

if i lived in the big woods, would i not ever have to talk to a customer again? if i lived off of the land and worked it, raising my own animals and smoking my own meat, growing my own vegetables, could i just depend on myself? i guess going to town to buy fabric for my clothes would be unavoidable. remember before when we felt like this so we quit our jobs and moved to the mountain? we're back at square one. i thought we'd come so far.

little house

i seriously want to go far far away
and i want to milk my own cow and sew my own clothes and worry about making dinner for my husband when he gets back from plowing the field

my skirt is swishing on the hardwood floor, hand laid by us. my homemade bread recipe is perfected, the hand churned butter is nice and cool from being in the cellar. my husband comes in smelling of pine from a day of chopping wood. simplicity.

i should have been laura ingalls wilder for halloween. then my dreams could have been slightly more real!

babes

i make the mistake of watching a baby story and bringing home baby every day at lunch. why do i do this to myself?
