Good Monday, Everyone!  You know what that means.  It’s time to title this photo!  It’s a tricky one, to get that brain workin’…. Please leave your caption, title, or commentary in the comment section of this post and you’ll automatically be in the running for an Artemis Necklace which Mike has adorned with a trail of coyote tracks.  And if you’ve not seen the post below, please do scroll down for an update and a pic of Daisy & Frisco that is so darling I actually feel myself melting when I look at it.  Then come back here and give this photo a name!

There is much to share.  Much to share because much has gone on, which is the precise reason nothing has been shared…. a vicious whirlpool, one that has been exceedingly frustrating.  I’ve not even posted pictures or stories of Frisco - but I have many, do not fear!

A few weeks ago, I sent out this twitter, joking about my angst: I need an assistant! But I can’t even offer room & board, only a camp trailer named the Psychedelic Jellybean & an unlimited supply of milk!”

And in the next instant, replies started pouring in via email, twitter replies, and on facebook, the most hilarious being: “I can only afford $10/hour…if you want more than that, maybe I could do some chores around the place.”

It was one of those things that made me go “hmmm…” and the next day I put an application of sorts on a secret page of my site (you can see it here) and posted the link only on twitter and facebook.  I got about 100 responses in two days.  They were sincere and beautiful and an honor to read.  And I wanted everyone to come.

Luckily, I didn’t have to choose.  One simply was. One particular person was IT.  This wasn’t due to any specific answers in her application but rather something I felt energetically.  Her name is Sarah Frary, she’s 23, she’s a fantastic artist - click here to see her work - and she’ll be here before the month is out!

I feel as though I’ve been released from a fairy-tale coma just knowing she is on her way.  The overwhelm I’ve been sinking under is retreating; creativity and enthusiasm are rushing in to fill its place, sweeping me up and along, buoying me.  Hooray.

Posts and pictures of Frisco & Co and more are coming soon.  Thank you so, so much for the patience and compassion you have shown me ~ it has been a gift, and makes me want to share with you even more….
here’s a preview…..

Frisco, ten days old.
