We are all in the bed. Five people and one dog. One of us is trying to read a book, another is playing beep beep beep on his iPod, another is rubbing any belly he can reach, mostly gently, I

b ~ By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown
On Christmas Eve we bring up the boxes from the basement. Opening them is like revisiting old friends. The tree skirt, garland and star have waited patiently to adorn this year’s tree. The ornaments are unwrapped, hooked and spread out

a ~ When the wind blows the water white and black.
Today is a snowy, stay-inside-and-drink-coffee, watch-lots-of-movies, catch-up-on-internet-shopping kind of day. Marred only by a missing book and…. no, that’s it. Just the damn book. A problem which I have pretty much explained to the powers that be and can now
