February 26, 2010

dearest computer,
i've neglected you quite a bit this week.
i'm not gonna lie, it felt really good!
i went to a show that made my eardrums dance,
spent some good time with talented musicians/artists,
made german chocolate cupcakes for my birthday buddy at work with an amazing baker,
trained for a new job i start soon (!!!),
and made a phenomenal terrarium!
perhaps i will share these things with you next week...
yes, i'll be back next week for sure.
we'll get some q.t. in :)

xoxo,
j.

hello, weekend!

February 22, 2010

this weekend i went nowhere, but everywhere.

i saw beauty, a lot of beauty. i saw bits of spring.
i spent quality time with friends.
i laughed.
i cried.
i laughed 'til i cried!
it's weekends like these that awaken my soul! and give me peace.

my feet took me places! colorful places.
they saw growth!
and life!
and hints of spring.
beautiful hints of spring!
they brought me to the local library.
girls night out!
tea, lots and lots of tea.
sunday morning sunlight.
hello!

(they had me @ hello!)



tell me about your weekend!



with happy feet,
j.
