pals
even though we acknowledged that it's a terrible time to get a puppy, roo was so sad after zephyr died that we got her a friend anyway. it's been a lot of work, and we can confirm that our timing was pretty horrible. but when i see these little pals starting to bond and roo teaching finn how to guard the fenceline, my heart explodes.

slippin
i climbed out on the ice in my snowshoes to get a picture of john as he climbed an ice waterfall with his axes and spikes. immediately upon stepping on the ice i slipped and fell and slid towards the edge of the cliff. we had just been talking about what to do when you slip on ice - which is take up as much space as you can. i fell and somehow remembered this. i spread out wide and pressed hands, feet, head, everything into the ice, hard. i skidded to a stop right before going over into the abyss. everytime i tried to move though, i slipped again. so i just had to lay there until john came over with his spikes and dragged me off. he took a pic first though, naturally.
it was scary. but i lived.

"My favorite moment of the past year was... holding Russ's hand under the total eclipse of the sun. Experiencing that powerful magic.
My proudest accomplishment was... pulling off a successful Nurture & Nourish Retreat.
I was most callenged by... my own negative thought cycles. The conversation with Julie.
My biggest sadness was... losing Zephyr dog.
My favorite adventure was... going to Havasupai for my birthday.
My shadow was... laziness, self-doubt, and fear.
My strength was.... commitment, dedication and fath.
I look forard to all the magic and mystery of the next cycle. Bring on the coming of the light!"

This is our world.
It is cold, unforgiving, driving snow like sand into your eyes.
It is howling, battering, ripping at your clothes.
It is shrieking and cracking and moaning and whispering and silent. It is otherworldly.
Our world!
It is golden, sparkling, leaving you breathless.
Carrying your laughter, prayers, shouts and songs away in a reckless wind.
It is stars frozen in water, it is sunlight blown off mountains.
This is our world!
Terrible and wonderful and magical all at once.
Don't hide, don't look away.
Don't leave here without at least once, feeling your insignificance,
as you walk straight into it's beating heart.

I knew the ice was too thick to break, but I admit, I was still nervous.
