one weekend in spring...

4 day weekend full of
books read by the beach
in the rain

polka dot rubber boot
excursions on a quiet, wet shore…
doughnuts….so many doughnuts…
a coffee date where we stayed
til they closed the place down…

cat cuddles…
a visit with my parents…
a little bit of planning for the summer
with great anticipation and excitement…

Spring makes me smile.
Happy Easter…hope the bunny found you. ♥

So good but so awful
and so sad and so
heartbreaking.

i came to the page
to write
but
realized
i have nothing
to say.

tomorrow
is
another day.

whatcha readin'? {goal 35 :: book 3}

I frigging loved this book.

Clever and funny
and interesting and
thoughtful…
the characters were quirky,
the plot was tricky,
the writing was
at times deep and made me stop & think
and then laugh out loud
in the next paragraph.

Read this one.

friday i'm in love...

When your brain is
swirling around incomprehensible
current events and
the fear and panic and sadness
that the people must
be feeling right now,
when everything feels uncertain…
hazy, smudged,
like a fever dream.

And you wonder
what you can do,
what should you do,
can you do anything,
and you try to hold on to
that part of your heart that
is a little bit calm
and so you make yourself
steer away from the news
and you lose yourself in the
internet for a little bit…in the shiny happy places…
for a little bit…
