and all that jazz...

Hello Friends!

It’s been a bit since I’ve blogged. Which means that I’ve been even more busy than usual.

 More busy and less creative—or at least that’s how I feel.

Thank goodness there is only one month left in this semester.

Not much new to report from this blonde Aquarian—it seems like the past few weeks went something like this…

spring break…
getting sick…
getting over being sick…
coming off of steroids and feeling like I had chronic fatigue syndrome for 4 days…
art show…
wedding…
yoga…
*realizing that I have more school to do now at the end of the semester and not doing it*

So, yep—I’m now down to crunch time. We have projects due, papers, crafts, presentations and a last round of tests before finals.

I keep looking at my calendar thinking of all the possible arrangements and rearrangements so that I can do both what I need to do and what I want

to do.

 But it’s just not happening.

I always forget how delightfully busy spring time is…there are always at least 3-4 cool events/activities going on over the weekends—there are weddings and graduations and just the change in the weather brings out the party side of people.


I have a recent interest in Mad Men since it premiered it's 5th season this past Sunday. Last week I watched the entire 1st season on Netflix and enjoyed watching the premiere with Lydia and Clint. I must say, they don't make real men like Don Draper anymore. But more on that subject later...(the pictures on this blog were inspired by the ad men of the 60's)

I’ve recently had several people text and call me telling me they miss me on facebook and asking when I’ll return.

and I’ve decided...

I actually don’t know if I’ll return.

My life has been so nice without it. Don’t get me wrong, if you are a close friend of mine, I have missed you too! I’ve missed seeing what books you’re reading, what movies you’re watching, how you feel about certain subjects, and pictures of your kids….

But I don’t miss all the “noise” in my head that facebook, for some reason, brings to me.

I loved reading this recent Huffington post article about facebook...Debunking the Big Gang Theory: Why Facebook and Others Suffer From Being Big

But, if I do return to the biggest social media outlet in all of history…

It won’t be until the end of the semester.

I have more to do in the next month than is mentally possible and so I just don’t have time for more distractions.

Pinterest keeps me plenty of busy during my “down time”..

And I’m thoroughly enjoying reading Tennessee Williams Memoirs (thanks Kayo!)

That’s it for now I suppose.

I hope this spring is treating you with love and kindness and all things full of joy.
