watch horse

my sister visited national velvet this weekend and was really creeped out by the antique toy horse perched on top of my china cabinet. it wasn't his horsehair, but the eyes that gave her the shivers. she felt i had too many eyes scattered around. there are quite a few.

anyway, today he was featured in the following treasury. i'm really going to miss him when he's gone.

the curse

i am presently facing the challeges of weaving together all of the odd and wonderful pieces of my life...the good, the bad and the ugly. all the while, the desire to create something beautiful is growing...never-ending.

for now, i will share a lovely song that today, i heard for the first time. sometimes we find love in the strangest of places.
