It's a start

Well, here begins my humble attempt at blogging- since reading up on other people's blogs I'm now convinced I should start one myself (thanks, Laura!).

I figure this is a good way to update everyone on what I'm up to these days, and it's a good way to keep in touch with those of you who are far away, although I'm probably the one that is far away! At this point my blogging abilities are questionable but here goes!

I'm looking forward to sharing how things are going lately, and feel free to leave comments as well, or write me an email! I'll be adding new photos soon.

Take care,

Sarah

"This is the true north strong and free, and cold, and wet, and icy, and dark - sometimes all at once. It's why God invented long johns. This is Canada. We have winter. Life sucks, get a toque. And embrace it."

a poem

The Shell

If thou couldst empty all thyself of self,
Like to a shell dishabited
Then might he find thee on an ocean shelf
And say 'this is not dead'
And fill thee with himself instead.
But thou art so replete with very thou
And has such shrewd activity
That when he comes he'll say, it is enow
Unto itself, t'were better let it be
It is so small and full
And has no need of me.

T.E. Brown
