What a great start Randi! Now I can enjoy the Montana winter without the cold. Love the the pics, they move the story right along.

Hey Mikey! It works! Thanks for commenting. I think of you guys the last day you were here - pipes frozen, freezing cold, windy. I'll bet you're relieved not to have to deal with all that stuff! Thanks for tuning in. I have a learning curve but am enjoying the climb. Love to you and Lynne!

Love this. Describes beautifully why I love winter in Montana. Glad I'm not the only one with pajamas on by 5. Haha!

Thanks Randy. Same goes to you. Another reason I love Seeley is that I encounter so many strong women, like you. Hope you and Juan have a restful and happy winter. 12/8/2015 08:39:46 am
I just loved this, Randi. I am still in MY jammies as I read it, coffee in hand. Beautiful writing. Beautiful photographs. I feel you are moving beyond death back into life, or possibly, more like integrating death into life. Your prose is poetic and gentle and evokes memories for me of when you lived in the Trinities. I can especially see you tromping in the snow at minus 20 with your powerful strides! Write. Write. Write, girlfriend. I look forward to your next story.

Candy, I plan on doing just that! This winter is so deeply different than last winter. A relief and a sadness. But I have surrounded myself with Mom's plants and nurture them everyday. I swear she has become the nasturtium that keeps sprouting into a vine. It got transplanted in with another plant inadvertently, but it insists on climbing up and out of the pot. Right now a tiny leaf has crawled up Mom's stained glass image of a butterfly that sits on my windowsill.The leaf is peeking out over the top into the garden! That same butterfly sat in the very same place while Mom lived with us - I can't help but feel it's Mom.

Siiister Olgs, How wonderful of you to read my blogs! Thank you for urging me to write again. I had stopped while I grew our new business but's clearly time to start again. It always helps me keep my balance point.
