buried
This week and last week have been so overwhelmingly busy. So I started this post to say that Mint will be moving at a slower pace today and tomorrow; I just can’t keep up with it all this week. Goal: catch up (hopefully!) by Monday, and life will be more normal next week. That’s what this post is supposed to say, and then I need some kind of image to go with it you know, so I went to my flickr contacts and searched the word “buried.”
I don’t know. It’s just the first thing that came to mind. I guess I was thinking “buried under a pile of laundry” or “buried under a big stack of books.” Instead, I got this beautiful, calm, thoughtfully arranged photograph by Heather Smith Jones of some things she found in her backyard. And I thought, yes. I have enough messy piles to be buried under in my house, and at least there will be something calm and beautiful on Mint.
Around noon, Lindsay will be here with Quick Queries and tomorrow I’ll be back with Links for Your Weekend.

thanks for sharing your find.
