A simple word that sums up Doctor Who. Seriously. From the first episode I ever watched ("Rose" with Chris Eccleston, Doctor #9), I fell in love with its kitschiness, its power, its sweetness. The writing, direction, everything has improved immensely until it lost a bit of its uniqueness but gained a bit of brilliance. I love it. You should watch it. Unless you dislike crummy sci-fi, interesting timey wimey mind games and a brilliant title character to fall in love with, you'll like it as much as I do.
"He's like fire and ice and rage. He's like the night and the storm in the heart of the sun. He's ancient and forever. He burns at the center of time and he can see the turn of the universe. And... he's wonderful." (Tim Latimer, The Family of Blood, 10th Doctor, 2007)

A Lovely Refuge
A Lovely Refuge: This is my goal for my home. And my life. I'll confess that I too think the words are cheesy. I have to refrain from rolling my eyes (and am embarrassed to use this phrase to others). But they mean something to me. They represent a desire inside of me for beauty and safety. For peace and quiet. To create this space lovely, a haven, to bring this feeling to others. Beginning with my home, my family and extending into my actions and my mind and my heart.
So that's that. This little blog is just about my attempts to accomplish this goal. From the wordy and (attempts at) philosophical to the functional and basic to the merely entertaining. Allons-y!
