Only one more day left of school before I am FREE for the summer!!! I plan on spending as much time as possible outside: planting flowers, keeping the bird feeders full, enjoying an ice cream cone and going to the beach. I can hardly wait! Thoughts of frolicking in the sun have me browsing (yet [...]

Monday, Monday
I’m not normally a Monday person, only because I have to get up early for school on Mondays. So I guess, technically I’m not a morning person. Either way, in honor of Mondays, I will leave you with this beyond bright gig poster for the Happy Mondays (and the Psychedelic Furs): Some more of Sharky [...]
Wonderful Weekend
I have quite the leisurely weekend planned: My friend Jeff’s band, Spoofed plays tonight at the Corner Bar. He will be dedicating a Joy Division song to my husband and I, so there’s no way I’m missing the show! Photo via Spoofed Also, I will be taking a trip to Dublin (Michigan, not Ireland) to [...]
Sleep
The bed is a bundle of paradoxes: we go to it with reluctance, yet we quit it with regret; we make up our minds every night to leave it early, but we make up our bodies every morning to keep it late. ~Charles Caleb Colton Such a true quote! As I write, I am exhausted [...]
Joy
I am full of such joy right now! I’d like to think it is because I was productive today, and the sun is shining, and it is warm outside. It is more likely, however, that I am just enjoying the side effects of caffeine from the Coca Cola I drank earlier (generally the only caffeine [...]

Flickr in silver
I love Flickr, but I especially love being able to search Flickr by color. You should give it a try; it’s surprisingly inspiring! Today I will go with a silvery color: Fidel e as Babuletas by cidadevazias Waiting for You by smallandround Two o’clock by janerc
Coral Jewelry
I’m not going to get too involved tonight because Red Wings playoffs are on, but I will leave you with a personal favorite of mine: Coral Jewelry! Red Bamboo Coral Necklace by Teresa Jewelry Sparkling Sage Coral Earrings by Mark Shale Medium Montauk Coral Hinge Bracelet by Alexis Bittar
Bikinis!
I realize that in Michigan, it’s not quite time to break out the swimwear yet. However, it is so close that I can’t help but start my window shopping! I know I am going to stick to the bikini this year, but which one? Do I want something ruffly? Colorful? Bond girl-ish? Here are a [...]
How does your garden grow?
After skipping my second class (it was far too nice out to sit in a dark classroom watching Power Point presentations on logic) I spent the majority of my day gardening with my Dad’s girlfriend. She is down-sizing her flower beds to half their current size, as they have become too much to care for. [...]
