Happy Me.

In explanation of my lame blogging lately, I'll offer this defense:

Spring has sprung.

Spokane is turning green, and pink, and yellow. And the sky is blue. And the sun is warm(ish).

I've been out. And about.

Painting my toenails.

Putting on my new Bath and Body works gradual tanner.

Pruning.

Buying new skirts and polos.

Wearing freaking flip-flops, people!

Garage sale-ing.

Walking the dog.

Playing tennis.

Glancing toward the garden centers popping up all over the parking lots around town.

Planning summer vacations.

Hoping to highlight my hair.

Eating strawberries.

Washing windows.

Reading magazines out on the deck.

Jumping on the trampoline. (Not me - the kids. I have bladder issues.)

Waking up to the sunshiney faces of my daffodils every morning.

Spring.

Happy me.

    Sounds wonderful. Sadly we are moving into fall here in Argentina. It isnĀ“t half as nice as fall on the west coast. Spring is my favorite time of year so I will live vicariously through you.

Happy Birthday Cathy! , originally uploaded by Pink Paper Peppermints . All of these sweet bloggy friends threw me a cyber-birthday party! How fun is that? Thank you, dear friends. I am touched. It's really just what I needed today. Sweet Tanya even made me a cake. If you want to follow the party around cyber-space, you can go to Melissa's blog to see everyone who is participating.

Getting to know you Wednesday

So it's been awhile. But I thought hearing from ya'll might cheer up my little snow encrusted Spokane self. So today, if I get at least 12 comments, I'll randomly pick one and send that lucky commenter any CD from Your Music . Whatever you want. So today, in light of mid-winter doldrums, I want you to answer the following three questions. To escape mid-winter doldrums, I like to: My favorite winter memory is: I know Spring is coming when: Okay, friends. Now it's your turn. Go to it.

The floodgates have opened.

So, I was doing pretty well managing my emotions. I kept telling people that I had processed a lot of my grieving over Tejan's departure back in January - when we were so close to saying goodbye... and so that must be why I wasn't feeling overly emotional about it this time around. I hadn't shed any tears. Hadn't choked up in that strange, overwhelming way where I feel like my whole head is filling up with fluid and my throat is so constricted I'm just sure I'm going to die. Nope. I was doing just fine. And then I went out to dinner with some girlfriends. And while I was a little socially inept because I'm a kind of overwhelmed and not really wanting to talk too much lately (perhaps in subconscious fear that I might touch on a nerve that would cause my aforementioned steely resolve to crumble) I thought I got through the evening fairly well. I didn't tear up - or need tissue for any fluids defiantly leaking from my facial orifices... until I made the a...
