Friday Happiness::
I am completely on the run today, but don't want to leave here for the weekend on such a moody note as I've struck the last few days.

I'm feeling quiet but happy, and the bit of grey this Friday brought is welcomed by me.
No matter what storm of self doubt settles over me some nights, every morning brings the head-clearing constants of my daughters voices, and a pot of really strong tea.

Just three things I want to mention.
.my photo today is shamelessly inspired by Rachel's much more skillful photo yesterday. It's the sort of photo that made me gasp, and then grab my camera and go outside and try again.
I really needed that yesterday, so thank you.

.I know this is out there everywhere right now. Jen told us about it. Alicia told us about it. I finally watched it last night. And then sat mesmerized and watched several in a row. A couple of times. I just have to jump on the bandwagon, because I love it.

.As is just my way, I mention the NYABF for days, but then never get around to telling you much actually about it. So, I'm circling back and mentioning that one of my favorite tables was the work of Kate Glicksberg. I didn't get a chance to go back in and talk to her some more, or buy one of her amazing little books. But I loved her photography, and the fact that she was passing the time at the show on Sunday by sitting at the table, hand folding sleeves for a set of three little photography books she had made. Awesome.

OK, I really, really have to go out into the world. But I am feeling good.

Hope you are too. Thanks for reading.
