A little reminder after a not so great week

Things We Forget

Happy Birthday to Me...

Buy for me Here

Oh pretty pretty pretty please for my birthday! CUTEST DRESS EVER!

Sometimes you win, sometimes you don't

Sometimes what you need to nix a day full of icky feelings and sadness is a good night of plans with friends. That's exactly what I have. Well today (and yesterday) we filled with those icky feelings, but tonight is filled with watching Whip It (I love Roller Derby, definitely my new obsession) and relaxing at a friend's house. Home isn't feeling like home the past couple of days so having somewhere else to go is nice to.

In other news... found on You Are My Fave

This adorable skirt... Anthropologie

AND...


this gorgeous jacket can be found at Boden USA.

Too bad I'm broker than broke. It's all good though, I am broke because I bought this lovely:


Seriously my new bestest friend.

Still hoping for Portland for my birthday but I may have to push it back a bit.
Goodness I miss you Portland friends and weather.

Started and finished Dear John yesterday. The scenes are still with me. I guess it didn't help that I was listening to Taylor Swift's Fearless album which goes well with the book, or at least some of the songs do.

Either way, I enjoyed the book... going to see the movie. Possibly alone so my friends won't tease me about the tears rolling down my face. Cuz it will happen. I cried through the second half of the book.

I haven't cried in a while.

Sometimes it's nice.

Someday they tell me

I'd like to know what this feels like.

Where I Want to Be

Or

Both from here

Somewhere with snow. Somewhere with loads of books and time to read them and drink coffee then go play in the snow then come inside to sit by a fire to warm back up with another book.

Things to do at night

I'm so excited, first off today is blustery and there are tornado warnings abound and it's amazing! So excited. Wish it would keep pouring.

I don't mind the weather, I've got scarves and caps and sweaters

it was so appropriate for that song to come on at work today. :)

I'm also excited because I signed myself up for TWO swaps. One is a valentine's swap!

(I would love for you to be able to click the photo for the link, but let's be real I'm still real new to this, so click the link above.)

THEN I signed up for a book swap.

I get to send someone my favoritest book with a little message in it! SO AWESOME.
I've been feeling a little lost lately I think. Maybe just confused. Or not creative. I haven't really put my mind to serious work and that I think is a problem.
So this will be good, I will be creating and via snail mail I will be meeting new people and receiving pretty things! It will take the sting out of another Valentine's day without a lover. Although you never know what could happen between now and then. maybe I'll meet someone. I wouldn't be opposed to the idea. But if I don't there is always next year.

Anyway, before I get caught up in the "lonely" thought I'm going to stop myself and just be excited for everything that is good. The swaps, my new lovely camera, the weather...
