we had arrived in the redwood forest.... still had a couple of days before we would attend a wedding in the middle of the eel river....
we're a family of three living in oakland, california. as a new mother i'm working on creating and appreciating all those simple and wonderful moments in life that slip by so fast. the danish have a word for these moments that we cherish...' hygge.' this is what i live for. to be able to recognize and be present when life really happens to you is my constant and lifetime goal. this blog is a way of documenting and sharing these moments of 'hygge.'

Love Life: The Tale of Steve Fugate
Love Life: The Tale of Steve Fugate
i was listening to this man's story today at work on "hearing voices" which is on npr..... i was just about in tears standing there at my die cutter doing the most monotonous work.... this really touches my soul and inspires me in an indescribable way.... it's unbelievable how many amazing people are out there in the world.... makes me feel guilty that i don't try to get out there and meet them... you know?

lighten the load...
gave myself a haircut today.... looks exactly like the cut i got at a hair salon, which cost me thirty bucks! i'm never doing that again... i forgot how easy my hair was to cut.... it's curly enough so you can't really see the mistakes.... well at least i can't
i put it all in a ponytail in the back and cut that off... then i put most of the rest in a ponytail at the top of my head and cut that off.... worked pretty well
only had to fix it here and there....
making the flash take away some of the wrinkles....
back top...
back bottom...
