I am certainly not the only one to encounter a life lesson like this. It's just far too easy to get caught up in the mundane and lose the uniqueness of each day.

Engle Tue, 20 Jan 2009 16:44:05 +0000 http://www.crafterbynight.com/?p=667#comment-19753 Miriam, Thank you for sharing your musing, especially for those of us who need to hear it. At the end of 2008, I realized that my writing and craft work were being interrupted by what I considered my advocacy on the behalf of non-human and human animals. Time and again, politics and power struggles became barriers. Meantime, Spirit, my canine companions and former puppy mill momma, and Lucy and Jazz, my two feline companions were not receiving quality time from me. Here's to 2009, unfinished dog sweaters and cat toys, walks not taken, feathers awaiting the batting of eager feline paws and hand written letters to people I've been meaning to write for so long. Here's to the many pet Afghans yet to be made and loaded up for delivery from the Love Bug Project. Lastly, Miriam, here's to you, your dog and what non-human animals know is important - being true to your heart. Danielle, Spirit, Lucy and Jazz Miriam,
