121206-212406 It seems that the universe wants to keep me sick so far this year. Food poisoning last weekend, Sinus infection this weekend. ugh.

On a happier note: I have been overwhelmed by the kindness I’ve experienced over this past week or so. From friends bringing soup and crackers over to being taken care of in times of high stress. Also the calming powers of a living room fort shared by your favorite four year old are amazing.

Between being sick and working I am slowly but surely reorganizing my attic studio. Trying to organize fabric is not my favorite. Any suggestions besides the obvious sort by fibers? I am excited to finally get it done and have feel at home up there. Since it is an unfinished attic after all.. its a little on the creepy side.

This week I got the ball going on a project I have been dreaming about for some time now. It’s a dance for camera collaboration with The Dance Team and a few other people that haven’t been nailed down yet. Its just in research stages right now, and will take about a year to complete but I can’t wait to get started. It is the year of getting things done. (Alot of these things will be baby steps but, hey I’ll take what I can get.)

What projects have you started this year that you are excited about? Any thing you are dreaming about?

As Promised a story from Nannytown:

Today was a particularly gloomy day, and I was also gloomy. Memphis ( the little boy I nanny who’s 3) was sad after his mama left for work so I sang him the same song I have sung to him since he was 8 months old, he calls it the Mountain song. Its The Mountain and the Sea by Ingrid Michaelson he now sings it along with me, or at least the chorus. He later noticed that I was a little bummed and says ” Don’t worry Ra- I will sing you the Mountain song just like you sing to me when I’m sad.” He melted my heart.
