So, day 1: two lemons in the sun. The biggest one has grown bigger even in the few weeks since I injured my ankle. The 1st lemon we've had on this little lemon tree. When will it ripen? And what will we make with it? And how miraculous, lemons in winter in VT!

Day 2: A friend and teacher had prisms hanging in a sunny window in her farmhouse & when she passed away, they came to us and hang now in our sunny window. This morning rainbows danced across the ceiling and walls, reminding me of my friend, and of how even a simple sunbeam contains multitudes.

A blurry circle of light on a wall, in the colors of the rainbow, with orange on the bottom all the way to purple on top.

Day 3: This opened today. It's packaging advertised a dark full pink. Never mind, surprises can be beautiful.

A mostly white amaryllis flower. It's center is green, and some of the petals, especially the ones on the right are streaked with red.

Day 4: The big brown eyes. The crossed front legs.

Day 5 - The open road, first time outside since surgery, on my way to the dentist. Fresh air: 100% A+

Day 7: Sometimes when you can't go to the woods, the woods comes to you.
