this delicious light...

After the chaos of looking at my messy house yesterday, I thought we'd focus on finding some inner peace.

I love the long shadows of winter.  The light right now is gorgeous.  I get a little choked up when I go outside.  I know that sounds crazy but it's fabulous and taking note of it brings me some serenity during the chaos of everything else going on.  I snapped a couple shots for you...

That photo on the left is the flowering bouganvilla on my wall, it's beautiful but now that I'm looking at how close it is to our Christmas lights I'm wondering...........could that be a fire hazard??? 

This is our front porch at 10:00 a.m., doesn't it make you want to sit there and just breathe?  It's a soft almost glowing light - we get a lot of harsh light here in the desert so this is a nice break for us...


or here in my bedroom - makes me want to curl up with a good book...


this is what is happening around 4:00 p.m. every afternoon.  I did nothing to this photo, that's just the blinding sunlight streaming in each afternoon, it's the view from here at my desk - delicious..


Speaking of light.  Here is a rather poor quality photo I took of the crazy moon Monday night.  I didn't use a flash so I have no explanation for that weird light that looks like it's going from the moon, to me and then off into space.  Must have been me moving or something


The winter light,  take a moment and soak it in.
