Foxy Romance

The fox with the flower reminds me of my sweet MM, who was so nervous on our first date, he could barely speak and sweated right through his shirt.
Have I told you the story of how he courted me for four months, only to be kicked to the curb when someone else swept me off my feet?
And how he got back on my dance card back nine months later, only to be kicked to the curb again when somebody else swept me off my feet?
And how when that guy showed his true colors, kicked me when I was down, and (thankfully) departed from my life, MM swooped back in, healed my broken heart, and finally, after two and a half years, claimed my heart?
I think the fox with the flower has that kind of devotion and persistence. I hope the other fox sees his true colors more quickly than I saw MM’s!

That feeling when you meet someone totally different from you — much older or younger, different gender, different race, different cultural background — yet you feel instantly in tune with them. That.
Sunday Morning
SOLD
Ah, weekends. Even though I work for myself at home (usually in my pajamas), I still like to make an energetic distinction between weekdays and weekends. One way that comes out is just relaxing my morning routine a bit on Saturday and Sunday morning.
Instead of going through my usual routine, which gets me to work in my studio by 9:00am, sometimes I lounge and read. Sometimes I listen to the radio.
It’s nice to just let myself ramble a bit.

Curiosity

When my parents go out of town, we dog-sit for their German Shepherd, Chloe. She sheds a lot, and harries our cat, Nika, but she’s the best vacuum ever.
She also makes the most wonderful expressions. There’s her goofy look, her eager-to-play-with-the-cat look, and her concerned look.
My favorite, though, is when she tilts her head to one side, trying to figure out just what in the heck is going on.

Lively Conversation

During my divorce in 1999, I moved into a little one-bedroom apartment that was a few blocks away from the Quaker meeting house, where my synagogue held Friday night Shabbat services once a month. For about a year, on that last Friday of the month, I’d invite a few girlfriends over, and we’d eat a simple meal, chat and laugh, before walking the ten minutes to the Quaker meeting house, where I would lead services.
It was a rough year in many ways, but those conversations over Shabbat dinner were points of light. Just thinking about them makes me smile.
