my week in objects (mostly).

a necklace, a basket, a mirror.

1. this necklace.

{and being able to hand it off to someone small who really needed it.}

2. this mirror.

{scratched as all get out but now i can see my reflection in a room with a window.}

3. these socks.

{and the organizing kudos received from a four-year-old.}

4. this bag.

{of things ready to be passed along.}

5. this copy of making things.

{and all the others from the second printing. i can’t begin to say how relieved i am to see it.}

other things:

handwritten signs by the register.

let’s talk about tofu.

the time i have with them isn’t something i am owed, but it’s something i earn.

what if we could share a bit more and take a bit less?

1000 wears.

even breakfast can be a gesture of belief in the world as it could and should be. (gift.)
