Ode to an Icicle

Made of ice,
Clear, yet opaque,
Hanging from the rafters...

Mysterious little icicle,
Formed by the melting rays of the sun,

Ironically put to death
In the same manner,

Slowly

Away into nothing;

Destined to a life
[imprisoned]

Only to be forgotten
When the winter winds
Stop blowing.

Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrribbit!


Meet Mortimer. A few weeks ago my friend, Jess, threw him in the air and he landed on the ceiling. He's been stuck there ever since... I guess I'm easily amused because I find it kind of amusing that I have a red stretchy frog sticking on the ceiling in my living room. I'm still waiting for it to fall on the head of some unsuspecting victim...

Winter Is Officially Here!

I got this shot through one of the windows in my classroom today. The squirrels around where I work are getting so fat that they often don't run away when you walk by and when they do scurry off they have a hard time climbing up the tree. Evidently this little guy is still trying to gain a few more pounds...

PEZ-zy Cake

This was my best friend's wedding cake. In my opinion, the bride and groom PEZ were the perfect thing to top the already beautiful cake! It was really super yummy too!

LOVED it!

I LOVED August Rush!!! If music touches your emotions in any way, you will probably like it too! A major theme running through the movie is: "The music is everywhere. All you have to do is listen." Freddie Highmore gives a hearfelt performance as an 11 year old boy, given up for adoption as an infant, that is confident he will find his birth parents if he can just get his song heard by enough people.

Gobble, Gobble!


I saw this turkey across the street from my house yesterday. There is a nature preserve across a very busy street nearby, but I've never seen any "unusual" wild animals quite this close to my dwelling!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

The Tree of Life

The Tree of Life
Is burning
With passion.

His rustling leaves
Beckon me
To let go of my burdens

And start climbing.


His waving branches
Summon me

Out of hiding,
Into His strong embrace.


His solid torso
Stands tall and unfaltering,

Keeping me safe
From every storm.


The Tree of Life
Is eternal,
Constantly calling
Me home.
