For some reason blogger won't allow me to move my photos around so this post is just a mess and I don't have the energy to fix it. Just know things are pretty much in reversed order.

A few new items in my shop.




a beautiful gorgeous piece by Jen Lemen.

Here is my dinner ~ misleadingly gives you the impression I am super healthy. I would have taken a picture of the 4 pieces of cinnamon swirl bread I ate a few hours ago but they are churning in my tummy. Why is this underlined you ask? I have no clue. Thanks blogger for making my evening more frustrating.

Today it snowed and snowed. I feel a bit cooped up and a bit blue to be honest. I am finding the holidays to be quite depressing. For no particular reason. They just are.

I spent some time reading this fabulously luring book recommended by my lovely friend Georgia. I LOVE it. It is quick and semi trashy and I am already so in love with one of the main characters.

Traveling and planning beyond what we are going to do the next few hours has felt daunting to me the past week or so. When asked to do something I find the thought of it-even if it is simple seems almost too much in the effort department. I get pretty mad at myself when i get like this. I go back and forth between trying to make up valid good excuses and feeling like I could make it happen and it would probably be fun.ought of it-even if it is simple seems almost too much in the effort department.

My friend Hope is coming to stay a few days this coming Tuesday. She comes into the airport at 6pm-that is the night I have to be at the coffee house at 8pm to hang my 30 or so photographs. It just felt oh so overwhelming. But she annoyingly reminded me that I could make it into a good thing. She could help me while she is here. I find it difficult to ask for help a lot of the time because it feels like I have this strange way of organizing or tasking things-way too complicated and energy consuming to show people so they can help me.

Yesterday was another close girlfriends suprise 40th birthday party in Connecticut~2.5 to 3.5 hrs away~depending on driving speed and ability to read directions. I excel in the first and lag way behind at the second so it still took me 3.5.

I really had a hard time getting in the mindset of going. Although I love her madly and wanted to be there for her it just seemed .....oh so hard to do for a miriad of reasons.

But I went.

It was good. She is beautiful-my god daughter is beautiful and her laugh just brings sparkles to my heart and soul.


And lastly I saw this link at DOOCE it is an amazing account of team work

I know what you mean about everything seeming to take so much effort. Sometimes I fly and I am so productive and other days I drag.

Sending you some energy to Fly!
