Surface Tension
When grace is joined by wrinkles, it is adorable. There is an unspeakable dawn in happy old age. – Victor Hugo
Please don’t retouch my wrinkles. It took me so long to earn them. – Anna Magnani

in the Great Meredith Renovation of 2013
after much, erhm, spirited debate
David and I reached a peaceful resolution to the exasperating question of:
Carpet on the stairs, or hardwood?
The beauty of our wood floor, its ease of cleaning – and our naive belief that our children were too old to fall down the stairs – won out over the traditional safety of our previously-carpeted stairs.
(Ahem.)
Ten days ago I fell down those stairs.
I could feel it happen. Side note: walking and texting is dangerous.
So are un-hemmed Lululemon pants.
