Hey there!
I've been sorta all over the place lately. Trying to figure out how in the world to work full time, paint paintings, do house stuff, clean my dogs ears, pay bills, (thanks Verizon for the random upgrade fees) do dishes, cook, groom, garden, vacuum, wash windows, clean my car,(thanks for the massive bird poop blast right after I washed my car birdie!) shop, plan birthdays, keep up with my kids unending dysfunctions and drama, answer emails, manage panic attacks, mail prints, fix dinner, clean the toilets, do laundry, figure out what to wear.... etc etc and on and on... much less blog, catch up on facebook, Pinterest, (oh how I love you)... manage Etsy, keep my webpage even remotely current...
Hmmmmm...
Hmmmmm...
does that sound like too much stuff to you? it does to me!
ok, and i'm not like... ohhhhhh poor me... I know you have lists just as long, probably even longer!
i mean what the heck man!!??

is life supposed to be this crazy?
why are we so busy??
So, you know what i think, I think we should just stop everything right now and look at pretty pictures of pink hydrangeas!

and get our nails done...
and go shopping !

don't love Trader Joes that place is crazy!
I'm a Whole Foods girl myself
(not that it isn't crazy there too!)
but I sure do love this hydrangea i found there

let's just be with how pretty this is for a minute
I did a hydrangea photo shoot and tried it out everywhere in the house of course...

I mean, it's Spring, it's Spring, it's Spring!!!
YAAAAYYY!

I'm putting flowers everywhere!

the hydrangeas were in a little pot, with bright pink paper,
so I put them in a round vase
and took some brown paper and wrapped it around
and added the sticker from Pom Pom interiors from when I bought my pink pom pom throw from them
I saved it because it was so cute
I know it's random and makes very little sense to have "pom pom" on the whole thing
I know it's random and makes very little sense to have "pom pom" on the whole thing
but I don't care, it looks cute to me!
you can see the cabinet door open in the background
why are cabinet doors always open?
So to continue with this chaotic rambling about life and flowers and whatever
which maybe involves being 59 years old, and celebrating mr. fractured's 60th birthday and heading to 60 myself
and thinking every twitch in my body is an impending heart attack
which is completely not out of the realm of possibility now
I decided my priorities included getting my nails done, and even had little flowers painted on one of them
thank goodness i didn't get each one painted with a different type of cupcake or something
it's hard to resist all the fun painted nail looks out there

Loved it the minute I first happened upon a rap song on the radio, before my daughter was born 22 years ago
I'm such a rhythm Ho

sweet little spring blossoms
and mr. fractured got me a new computer at a discount from his job at IBM which is so sweet of him
the computer has a whole new operating system called windows 8
it is very very different than what i'm used to
very different
in fact I'm pretty sure I broke a record for the most frequent and imaginative use of the "F" word in the last week
yep, pretty darn sure
...don't get windows 8...
Aaaanyway... that's a random combination of just of a few of the things going on with me
I've missed so many of your posts, i hate that!
I try catch up whenever I can..
It makes me crazy
I feel like all my friends are out doing fun things
and i'm stuck at home doing my homework
so i'm off to catch up on you guys while i have a minute!
...the end...
