..laying out..

..Is it too early to start laying out?

I just flipped through the new Victoria's Secret Swim '09 catalog (do people still say "catalog"?)..anyway it made me so happy. The sun is coming!! Lemonade and Iced Tea will be made..skin will brown..new beach towels will be bought (by me at least). I can't wait..and it all starts with daylight savings on March 8th...

...yay.

..dream..

dream in yellows and pinks

vintage patterns

listen and hear

a youthful conversation of my mother's

time and song

whisper long

all her love is yours

her gift to me

my gift to you

..my mom..

I made my mom sad..

..but she made me sad first.

Then I brought her flowers & a smoothie..

..but she still seemed sad.

..ah, what to do..

..I love her.

..home..

I put up roman shades!!

After getting a quote from a window specialist for dark woven wood roman shades throughout our tiny tree house (my affectionate name for our loft~condo), I went to Lowe's and did it myself for the price of one custom window!!

..They look good..

Now it's raining outside & it looks so charming to see through our pretty new view.

(too bad I have to leave for work)
