still clearing the clutter...i have one little short stack of photos left. this morning i came across a picture i took at roosevelt island just before i moved back to texas from maryland in 2002. one of the monoliths is entitled NATURE. it reads:
THERE IS DELIGHT IN THE
HARD LIFE OF THE OPEN
THERE ARE NO WORDS THAT CAN
TELL THE HIDDEN SPIRIT OF
THE WILDERNESS THAT CAN REVEAL
ITS MYSTERY ITS MELANCHOLY
AND ITS CHARM
THE NATION BEHAVES WELL IF IT TREATS THE
NATURAL RESOURCES
AS ASSETS WHICH IT MUST TURN OVER TO
THE NEXT GENERATION
INCREASED AND NOT IMPAIRED IN VALUE
CONSERVATION MEANS DEVELOPMENT
AS MUCH AS IT DOES
PROTECTION
i am still moved by this and haunted.

clutter clearing
today started with some clutter clearing. i've had a paper whole foods bag full of pictures since i started shooting film. that's three or four years of pictures that have been hiding in my closets for a few years. some are getting thrown away, some will be sent away as postcards, and some will be saved for an album. i still have two stacks to go through. maybe i'll finish tomorrow.
i have to run out and get paper to print the pictures for loren's portfolio. then i'm off to the hardware store to pick up something to hang our pots and pans and some wall anchors for the towel hook device. the loft is shaping up.
stepped on the scale again today. i've lost 7 lbs since i cut gluten out of my diet a couple of weeks ago! amazing. it's like all the extra weight i was carrying around my waist has just melted off. now if the extra weight could come off my legs...i'd like to lose 30 lbs total and gain some muscle. yoga must become a part of my week atleast twice. so 23 lbs to go...
