oh joy!

there are only about 7 minutes before I have to rally and go to a yoga class because its what I set as an intention today. I'll happily tread through the snow and spin backwards to shield my face from the blustery wind.

I am here, now, because I want to say "I am HAPPY"

inside of me is a shout of joy.

I just feel HERE and ALIVE and LOVED and that is enough for me, quite frankly.

It's a slow morning, a slow day...and I am grateful.

the ground is covered in snow and ice. I spent the morning throwing frosty sticks for a seriously delighted snow moustached black dog, who happens to be one of the most dazzling loves of my lifetime. Right now she is snuggled in at my feet, on my bed, breathing deep in her dog dreams.

and my other dazzling and humbling love of my life, has curled her warm tortoiseshell self under my arm as I type this and she is purring away, mightily. Joy is abundant. Love is limitless.

All is well.
