a poem

in winter
in a time not expected
in a difficult time
in a cold time
in the quiet
I found it
my peace & confidence
blooming despite the odds
radiant despite the opinions of others
there in all its majesty

What in the Hell was I thinking?

So DAY 5 of No New Things

Ugg I just remembered I need to buy softball pictures of my 2 younger daughters this season?  If I buy them on disc I am good because the decision to do this was based on NO MORE STUFF in our life in our house or in the landfill.  BUT honestly I will loose that disc and never make copies to give to the grandparents!

I did decide media on CDS's, i tunes and TV shows on my Kindle Fire don't count and obviously neither does groceries, toiletries or undergarments (that include bathing suits - see I did think ahead a little).

But what else will I come across? I considered those last minute purchases for class shows form Target like the red shirt necessary for the class sing at Christmas and what about the container I had to buy last year to hold 100 homemade pumpkin muffins....? Ugg

Please watch this short AWESOME video to see where my craziness came from:
