friday i'm in love....(a bit of a weird one)

i struggled with writing
friday i’m in love today.

i’m in a slump,
a bit of a black hole
of work and school and laundry
and work and school and bills
and lists of things to be done
and lists of lists so that i
don’t lose track of my lists….

i am not getting out as much…
not because i can’t
but i think because i have to think too hard
about everything….
is this place open, do i need a mask,
are there going to be restrictions, arrows, judge-y people
just waiting for you to make a mistake
and then…
i end up just staying home.

but today, I’m going to force myself
to go out (and no,
not just because i need diet coke, but…
i do need diet coke…heehee)
but because
the only way forward
is to make a step in that direction.

but in keeping with friday i’m in love
here is a quick & dirty list
(noooo. not that kinda dirty. gawd….)

• sitting on the deck with a friend while her boy plays ball down the street

• mr freezies….usually 5 at a time…and every color is my favorite
  while i am eating it…heehee

• a text from a friend promising an ice cream date

• my study bunny app

• tomatoes are growing & i have little teeny tiny cucumbers starting

• 10 minute dance breaks throughout the day

happy friday!
Right now, I am packing up my camera, cell phone, bug spray,
dairy bar crawl list, a blanket & a book and
making that step forward. :)

friday i'm in love...even if it's kinda rainy...

I haven’t done a friday i’m in love for a bit…
just a few things that I am loving right now
and grateful for.

♥ i have been obsessed with this show “Bonus Family”
It’s Swedish…and ALLLLLLL subtitles
which I actually don’t mind because it means I can’t
scroll mindlessly on my phone while watching it…
but I seriously adore it.

♥ when a friend messages to tell you to look outside your door
and when you do, you find the cutest little tomato and pepper plants!
and then the same friend offers to show you how to make salsa
AND can it or bottle it or whatever it’s called in the fall
and you giggle to yourself because this friend
obviously
has no idea what she is getting herself into….hahahaha.
let’s not forget the fact that i once deep fried french fries…
in water….just to give some perspective. Haha.

♥ this. I am not sure what it is about the cello but
i kinda love it…

♥ jumbo mr freezies

♥ sugar cones with ice cream

♥ how green and vibrant the world looks after it rains

♥ listening to the radio loud while working from home

♥ that my favorite ice cream truck is opening up again!

Happy weekend! Hopefully the rain holds off
and if it doesn’t,
hopefully you find a nice dry place
to curl up and watch a movie or read a book or listen to music
that takes you to somewhere nice.

Also…taking recommendations on
any 3 of those things! Heehee.

my new friends. heehee.

friday i'm in love...

♥ April is national poetry month…

♥ i watched this last night…rented it for 2.99 on Google Play…
and it was the perfect way to decompress…and de-stress…

♥ when i grow up, i want to be agent carter

♥ speaking of people you wanna be when you grow up…wow…

♥ this girl and her little snippets

♥ i had no idea dave matthews was so amusing and…slightly bizarre…in a good way.

and…i bake banana bread today…
and it LOOKS like banana bread!
I can’t eat it yet because apparently
it still too hot
and there is a chance
it may be yucky since I over did some ingredients
and under did others…
plus…I have to turn on the oven
with pliers
so it’s kinda hard to tell if
i got the right temperature or not…

Heh.

Adventures in the big orange house.
:)

happy long weekend (whatever that means…haha)

friday i'm in love...day whateverteen...

i don’t feel like doing anything
right now
except losing myself in the rabbit hole
world of internet
researching new rubber boots,
making garden plans,
looking at pretty dresses,
and googling why my nose is twitching
on one side…
(i am hoping it’s actually the beginning
of a super power that i am secretly developing
and not the symptom of some new virus)…

♥ I need to learn how to do embroidery.

♥ I have seriously fallen in love with peter pan collars.

♥ I know I have said this before but I love this blog.

♥ such a sweet story…

Happy friday…do something fun! :)

friday i'm in love...on saturday...

forgive me…
the days have become a bit of a blur…
:)

I started the week with
a schedule and a plan
but today
I feel a little detached,
a little lost on what I should do next…
I know I have lots I can do
but there seems to be nothing
I want to do.

So I thought I would distract myself
with the rabbit hole of the internet
for a little bit
and see if I can find some
inspiration.

Wanna come along?
I promise to keep 6 feet away
(I know what 6 feet is now after my
Christmas light debacle…heehee)

♥ gotta wash your hands anyway…look at this SHEEP SOAP!!

♥ got some spare time and looking for something to learn…

♥ a new meaning for book nook

♥ he can make an action figure out of a rubber duckie!!?

♥ drawing is a coping skill

♥ i so love this…

and stay tuned tomorrow…I have a new framed print to share!
:)
