spinning....





windmills...even better up close.
wish i had a better lens.

i feel like my mind is spinning in all sorts of directions today.
i am full of energy
and ideas and thoughts...
i feel a surge of creative energy and am happy for it...
i have been knitting again,
painting wooden blocks to make vegetable signs for the garden,
planning on making birdhouses,
painting a birdhouse that has been here since we moved in...
i'm excited and happy and having fun...
bring on summer!

5 really good things on a wednesday...


finding this guy in my flower bed
{and if you think that is strange but cute,
wait til you see what has hatched in the vegetable garden}


the tie made by eight for father's day
and the father that proudly wore the tie
safety pinned to his t-shirt
all day...
to my parents,
to the gas station,
to the restaurant...
{i could not possibly love this man more}


summer's coming! summer's coming!


the lingering scent of lilacs
{in my very own yard}
{have i mentioned that i love lilacs?}

and final of the five...
anticipation of a night out this saturday
with friends and music
and maybe even a little of the hard stuff....

go see liz...i think she is home now...

love thursday...for shutter sisters...


i pack my love in a baloney sandwich.

**********************

that said, i had another realization last night
as flickr told me i had exceeded my limit of uploaded pictures...
i realized i need to figure out paypal.
i realized i need to upgrade my flickr account.
i realized i am addicted to flickr.
sadly, i am not too knowledgeable {and a little fearful}
of paypal {hence the fact i can never order anything
from all the etsy shops i love...}
any hints...is it safe? is it easy?
