october blog-o-sphere: where would i like to go?

********
the topic for this month's blog-o-sphere post is 
"where would i like to travel, take vacation, etc." 

i've always wanted to visit iceland: 
i am a child of the cold and the barren,
 the dark and the snow. 

i've always wanted to visit nova scotia:
the high-and-low tides and the wildness of the sea.

i've always wanted to visit scotland and ireland:
mamie heichelbech was of scot-irish descent,
and i have her blood in my veins,
her genes in my crystal lattice. 
i have her looks and her love of pearls. 


but, really....really....
i wish to be exactly where i am right now: 
at home. 

i'm taking holiday for a couple weeks. 
it seems like i have taken much leave time from work this year, 
but right now, 
this two weeks, this is my time to spend as i wish. 

i shall go to the city with a friend. 
i shall sew, sit on the deck, visit the bookshed, rest, read, knit, 
do some beading, and sew an apron for a friend. 
i shall gather rocks, do some drawing, do much journaling, 
and look deeply into my soul. 

i'm living the good life. 
right here. 
right now. 











and i shall peruse the posts of those who joined this month's
blog-0-sphere:

scotland and ireland.
i think i am ready for the calm and the slow beauty of those places.
sometimes it takes a while for the right time to travel to a special place.
first i had to learn to love the crisp chill and the bite of the wind, along with the unhurried pace, the remoteness, and the raw exposure to the elements.
now... i do.
