under the wire, end of my rope, last minute, but not too late friday happiness::




oh!
all sorts of things.
cool today. could stop right there. feel like i can handle most things as long as it's not humid out.
easy morning,
trip to the city, trip to brooklyn.
mother-in-law i love; vintage fabric and a happy five-year-old with free gummy bears.
lunch with my girl...and so happy that it's just us. just us two, not me trying to keep her quiet while i aspire to grown-up talk. this, a revelation.
taking pictures, taking notice.
and then,
taking leave.
leave of the city.
a drive home as the leaves become thicker, become more golden already, just ten, twenty miles north.
arriving home to kids roaming about in costume,
my own kids all arrived home safely without me.
a good dinner thrown together
and a good friend on our couch.

it's all more than,
and just as
i would hope for.

my cup is filled up,
my eyes filled to the brim.

spilling over,
tired, happy, worried, and grateful.

and tomorrow is only saturday.

thanks for that.

xo,
tt
