Inspiration for NaSmaStMo, also known as a river of stones as it is called on Fiona Robyn's website, can come from anywhere. They come from a greater awareness of what is going on in one's life if one pays attention to detail. As such, this small stone comes not from nature, but from domesticity...

This is, of course, subject to revision...that is, shaping and polishing my small stone into a faceted jewel.

Having finished the year with my resolution intact (and actually accomplished), I can start the new year afresh with new authors and reads. As before, I am going to read more this year. Some of my reading will involve learning as I will start a new three-year cycle of continuing education,...

For the NaSmaStMo, also known as a river of stones, for January 2 is the following entry:
in from the cold, warming up by wrapping my hands around a cuppa and the cat's purr
