I spy 10 things.

  1. There is a red potato on the desk next to me. I have no idea why.
  2. It's foggy outside this morning. I love fog.
  3. I need to clear the kitchen counters. There's stuff everywhere.
  4. I'm wearing the ugliest red and black flannel fleece. It's embarrassingly redneck. But I put it on every morning over my pajamas until I get dressed.
  5. My cup of coffee is half empty. Some may say half-full, but I'm a pessimist.
  6. There's a baby picture of Ethan on the corner of the desk. A cuter baby I've never seen. He was SO chubby.
  7. My nails need to be filled. I've kept my nails since the cruise last May. I just can't go back to my own... they're so sad. Having nice nails makes up for the days when my hair is a disaster and I feel fat.
  8. The pile I need to take to Goodwill sits by the back door... and gets a little bigger every day. I love clearing things out. Feels SO good.
  9. I need to take my snowman collection and put it away. I'm SO done with the snow. Time for Easter decor, don'tcha think?
  10. The clock says it's time to wake the kids up.

Happy Tuesday, friends.

  1. My hubby has a "redneck" fleece that he wears all the time. Neither of us like it, but it's just the right thickness for "chilly" weather so he wears it a lot in Texas. *LOL* (it never actually gets *cold* here...just "chilly")

    It is *sooooooo* time for Easter decor...yes..I think so too.

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...
