twenty-two

today I am twenty-two.

blizzard people

the blizzard is so bad today, work got canceled! a nice little surprise for my first weekend of winter break.

i've lost count of all the people i've seen stuck in the snow so far this morning. it's fun to see strangers helping strangers, giving high fives of success and huddling together to shield the wind.
poor kyle has to walk home from work while i stay in and wrap christmas gifts/make paper people.
we actually cheated a bit last night and each opened up one gift (woops!).

etsy opening in four days!! (i'm still narrowing down on my shop's name! hmmmmm)

dark

a little book finished a few weeks ago.

we were little tigers, hiding in the night
catching fireflies under quiet street lights.
a velvet ribbon, in the dark
fell from my hair to the meadowlark.
quick like rabbits, we ran out of sight
until we couldn't find anything but moonlight.

only one more week of school for the semester, and then next week, good news--
i'm opening my etsy shop!
books, prints, and other little things. full details next week.
