jigsawed




i'm a jigsaw puzzle
carried from one room to
the next
on a thin sheet of cardboard.

pieces or pieced,
forever fragmented.

now utterly breakable.



Off to Devon tomorrow for 3 days, searching for our rental property. Please cross something for us, the pickings are really dire. Feeling the pressure, trying to trust.

  1. I'm sorry you feel so vulnerable Monica (or did I interpret it wrong?)
    I feel certain you'll find a rental you love. Good luck.

  10. crossing and muttering fervently on your behalf...i know the right place will materialize...even against the dire picking odds.

    our pickings were actually non-existent....and then we found Home...trust and swan feathers...;)

  12. It is the major disadvantage to that place isn't it? Compromising on your living space is painful for a homebird, but who know what would turn up once you've been there longer and get to know people. Good luck.

  13. Oh no, that doesn't sound good. Don't break. I like what Cat said above - every piece is there, so you are still whole (ish). I really hope a great rental property crops up for you, something perfect for you and your family. xx

  14. I hope that everything is working out and I have my fingers crossed for you. I am sorry you are feeling fragile and vulnerable - it seems to go hand in hand with living truthfully and passionately. These times often are signals that we are going in the right direction. x

  16. each piece is a whole in of it self; a fragment just as beautiful. an unfinished puzzle is still a puzzle. hugs to you, as you stay centered and on your quest for home. <3

  20. Devon - cool - how very Plath to live there (first thought that entered my mind)
    Of course I missed this post and therefore saw (comment freedom), that you rented an overpriced, undersized place. And that reminds me of Toronto here- outrageous prices to live in teeny hideous spaces.
    If anyone can make it work, you can. At least the search is over. Take some satisfaction in that being accomplished, yes?
