Bit by bit

Today is the first (of nine) days of the devi, or goddess. Happy Navaratri. Things are shifting all around as my feet slip and slide and crunch through the ankle-high snow last week's storm brought. The lake polished silver with a gold sun-strip as I did my sun salutations this morning.

The birds are flirting though, even as the deer, scraggly and fluffy in their winter guise, eye us curiously until someone takes out the critterfeed. Will report back next week on new developments.

Om namaschandikayei namaha.

Edit: extra prayers for guruji to be well and recovered soon.
