because this is what a road trip would be like with us....
tuesday truths...
1.
i feel like the summer
is flying by
and i am missing it
a little bit...
it's rushing past me
and
i just
want it to
slow down
and let me
savor it.
2.
everything matches robot shoes.
3.
summer on pei
is beautiful
no matter
how fast
it seems to fly by.
#tbt ♥
they tell me that tomorrow
it will be 26 years since you have been gone.
i tell them
that cannot be.
i look at this photo
and it's like yesterday.
i want to build a time machine
in my back yard
out of cardboard boxes and styrofoam,
rubber bands and sheets of bubble wrap.
I'll fuel it with turpentine & vodka, paint it bright red and purple
and blast back to yesterday
with the dual cassette ghettoblaster singing
she sells sanctuary & you give love a bad name...

whatcha readin'? {2016::book 14 - goal 12}
oh alice hoffman...
you have done it again.
you have pulled me in
with vivid colors
and beautiful words
and imagery...
so many lines in this book
that i just wanted to read
and reread...
to sink into and absorb...
her writing is lyrical and evocative.
the story is based on some true elements...
Camille Pissarro, a famous artist of the 20th century,
is one of the main characters but she
brings you into the life of his mother...
and all of the beautiful messiness
involved in being a family
and loving/letting go.
i am hoping there are more books
by her that i have not yet read...
and if there not,
i may have to re-read what i have already read,
she is that good.
