So long.. farewell...
I've decided to shut her down. I don't have the time to blog anymore. Too many things going on. I will be on
twitter and
flickr daily though. Come hang out with me over there. It's been real. Peace out blogosphere.
I do love
Illinois too. I have lots of Chicago love. Lots of midwest love in fact.
Added to
Truche Etsy this evening.
I am really enjoying this rainy weather today. Makes me want to be productive. Happy Sunday all.
Up Up and Away
This photo makes me so happy. I wish I was in one of those little balloons flying off to someplace lovely.

The love of my life
Yesterday I had to put the love of my life to rest. He was somewhere around 15 years old.
My Dearest Elmo Bear,
Thank you for bringing me so much joy for so many years of my life. You were my world. I miss you so very much. I will miss your loud purr every time I walked in the door. I will miss you screaming at me every morning to wake up and feed you. I will miss lifting up the covers for you to crawl under and curl up next to me. I will miss your head butts on my forehead. Your bad breath, your stinky farts, your adorable scrappy ear. I will miss you being at the door every single time I came home. You were one of a kind. You made people who hated cats, love cats. You changed so many peoples minds.
You will forever be in my heart. I love you so much my Moe.

Will be updating throughout tonight and tomorrow. Now to go watch The Amazing Race and relax. I have been dealing with a sinus infection all weekend. Still don't feel well. It snowed a lot today and it makes me want to puke. I am SO over winter and ready for spring.
Photo Dreams
I've been thinking alot about photos that take you places. Places you feel like you have been. Give you a certain feeling or emotion. That you are just drawn to. Here are a few that have done this for me.

Clay fun
Playing with some clay, made some heart lovelies.
