outside my little life...

Despite the fact that it is snowing (again),
I'm feeling optimistic and so
it felt time for a fresh header.
I would actually be alright with another month of snow.
I have no right to complain about the weather here today.
.............
The tv has been on all day
and the news out of Japan has been
so terrible.
I don't think I have blogged about world issues...
because it's always been about this little life.
Today I'm thinking of a friend and his family.
Hoping to hear from them soon.
Wondering how this will effect their lives.
xox


{an added note}
My friend is living in Tokyo.
They have no electricity and
the aftershocks are a constant reminder
of the potentially dangerous situation they are in.
Today he mentioned that there is no
bottled water to be found in Tokyo and
the people are starting to panic.
Still hoping that the people in Japan
receive the help they need.

summing up how i'm feeling right now...

so bored to hang out here all day...
when will winter go away?
it's so cold out
our feet get frozen when we play outside...

you. have. got. to. be. kidding. me.
what the heck?
more freakin' snow??!!

yes i know...
it IS beautiful.

see this messy drawer?
welcome to my life.
cluttered, unorganized...
feels a tad crazy at times.
it really isn't though.
i am just feeling this way.
aka CABIN FEVER.

when i emptied the drawer
i found this lonely little fortune.
isn't life ironic?
since there's a few years of
junk in here?

so i did just that.
sifted through it.
tossed the junk.
found things i loved but had forgotten about.
organized.
lined things up for future use.

oh dear,
realized another addiction.

and another.
they make me smile.
i just heard that our spring this year
will be a cold one,
so i'll keep busy getting all my ducks in a row.
ok, they're not ducks,
but you know what i mean...
