Since First Grade

My best friend and I have been friends since we were in first grade.

And being the awesome friend, I failed miserably in the remembering her birthday department.  I did send a happy birthday on Facebook, with full intentions of sending a text later that day, but it didn't happen.

Em = suck-y best friend :-(

Sorry Lindsey!!

a little bit late!!

My Etsy Taste Test

Fairly accurate I think :-)

redesign

I am not 100% happy with my blog.  Almost a year ago, I trashed my blog, deleting the negative, the painful memories and the things that reminded me of what was but could never be.  I have been trying to redo and recreate what I loved about blogging in the first place.  But its so hard.  People never comment anymore.  I miss the feedback that I got from other bloggers.  I am thinking of going tumblr but I love that I can use my blog as a jumping off point for the other blogs I keep up with.  (I know, I can get a reader, but I HATE when the RSS feed takes the design out of a blog.  Some people spend a lot of time making their blogs look nice, and I appreciate that).  I guess I need to re evaluate what I want/need from the internet and from blogging.

fields

When I am cold or feeling a little blue, I set my desktop on my computer to this image, which I love.  It makes me remember the random, silly things in my life.  It makes me appreciate little details, and the amazing ability nature has to produce a million shades of green.  I ignore the fact that it was raining when I took this photo, (but that actually made the entire trip more fun).

I love images of fields, and if hunting season would ever END in the park near me (yeah) I would go and take some more photos of a winter field.  (and I can't wait for some good NJ snow, so I can take some with grass sticking out of a snow bank...)

(and don't worry Linds, the bronx bombers background is still my default desktop)
