Wordless Image
I do compose words on images, but lately I’ve been just coming up with either words or images. I just didn’t have the heart to mess this one up with verbiage. It’s a thousand words, all on its own. Lake Superior with winter sky.
Time to Come Home!
I’m sure it was probably a wonderful time, but I always love returning home again. If I’ve taken adequate notes, I’ll be able to write all the gory details for your entertainment later this week, but no promises. Maybe what happened in Chicago will need to stay in Chicago. Who knows what I was up to in these shots from the trip of January 2007.

Go Vikes!
I have no idea what it will be like to watch my home football team compete in a playoff game when I am located in a rival city. Da Bears are out of it, so they may as well cheer us on. I’ll let you know how it turned out after I get back. Here is another shot from our January Chicago trip of two years ago. Are we having fun yet?
Off to Chicago
We’re headed to Chicago for the weekend with friends. Weather should be pleasant for us to wreak our silly havoc on the unsuspecting town. Reports to follow…
Finding Calm Amid Chaos
Just a peek of something that isn’t snow to go with our January warm spell, but one that represents the chaos that I’m feeling as the many needles of things calling for my attention seem scattered all over the place. I just have to figure out a way to perceive them as belonging just the way they lie. I have to overcome my urge to see them all become arranged in some sort of order and discover the peace of allowing normal to be observed in the usual chaos of things.
I want to become better able to associate the times when things seem to be getting stressful as okay, just as they are. Sure, things are incredibly busy and seem chaotic, but if I frame my perceptions of chaos as normal, maybe my reaction and management of events can be more balanced and calm. I wouldn’t mind learning to perceive days that get overly busy as individual moments that aren’t as stressful as they seem to be when taken all at once. I think that would be a good skill to master.
Speechless

I don’t have anything to add to that today. Happy Saturday, if you stopped by today.
Puzzling
How ’bout a little slide show of my recent adventures?…
There were presents and snowflakes and shadow pictures on the house next door. But the surprise of the weekend was something that I’m pretty sure my siblings will be able to appreciate, maybe even be a little jealous over.
I was shoveling the driveway for the fifth or sixth time of the long weekend on Saturday and reached the mailbox to find a package had been delivered, addressed to Cyndie. She didn’t recall what it could be, so the surprise was for both of us. She had ordered a puzzle for me, custom made out of a map centered on the location of our home! If it wasn’t so fun, I’d think it was educational.
