Magic Mushrooms

I finally got my act together here -- I do NOT function well in hot summer weather. Ugh.

Set up a new embroidery project for myself, 

MAGIC MUSHROOMS 

from Dropcloth Embroidery.

Zero happening with quiltmaking.

Questions Before Dark

Day ends, and before sleep
when the sky dies down, consider
your altered state: has this day
changed you? Are the corners
sharper or rounded off? Did you
live with death? Make decisions
that quieted? Find one clear word
that fit? At the sun's midpoint
did you notice a pitch of absence,
bewilderment that invites
the possible? What did you learn
from things you dropped and picked up
and dropped again? Did you set a straw
parallel to the river, let the flow
carry you downstream?

~Jeanne Lohmann~
