We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the hateful words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people. — “Letter from Birmingham Jail,” April 16, 1963

You don’t understand, no-one does. When a woman makes the choice to marry, to have children; in one way her life begins but in another way it stops. You build a life of details. You become a mother, a wife and you stop and stay steady so that your children can move. And when they leave they take your life of details with them. And then you’re expected move again only you don’t remember what moves you because no-one has asked in so long. Not even yourself. You never in your life think that love like this can happen to you. -Francesca, Bridges of Madison County

STUFF Portrait Friday – for reals!

3 June, 2005 /

This is what I call ‘the stinky room’ because when Shea takes off her shoes the flooring starts to warp.

And the other room. I wish they had their bedding on because it’s a ‘hawaiian themed’ room and it looked SO good when Shaun put it all together.

Books. I collect books. This is just a small little bit of them. BS (before Shaun)I had STACKS AND STACKS of them on this ledge in my room. I would decide I need this one special book and go get the ladder and once I got up there I would end up grabbing 5 books and knocking over 3 stacks to get to them.

I came home one day and he had ‘cleaned it up’ for me. Since then I have given away probably half of my books. I use to dread going to the book store because I ran out of credits, but now I don’t mind so much because the camera store is right next door.

Okay…who played? I wanna see your stuff!
