I got nothin'

In the throws of a bout of insomnia, whilst looking at the red glowy (mocking) numbers on my ancient Westclox digital for the umpteenth time, I started writing a new blog post titled, "Old and In the way." In which I discussed a certain doe-eyed shop girl with a bad attitude, a tragic cliche about becoming matronly, the perils of elastic waist trousers, and the fact that The Beastie Boys are now being played on the OLDIES station!

As I was rambling tangential, it occurred to me that my lack of sleep was making me sound at least 'a half a bubble off plumb,' so I thought it best to stop with the crazy and think of something else to write about.

So I thought...
...and thought...
Until I woke up in a panic at 7 am.

Now it's the next day, time has gotten away from me, and there's still a little bit of crazy lurking in the shadows under my eyes. I've left Pony Girl to devour an entire watermelon on her own while I attempt to get some work done and I realize I got nothin' in the way of a post.

I'll just leave you with a little "thanks for coming" new friends and old, and apologies for not getting 'round much these days by way of emails and comments. You are all so ace, really! I am wishing you all a week of good sleeps and happy dreams!

The cozy is calling

I know I said I would be sharing a wee crafty tutorial with you today, well that'll teach me! I did all the work, took all the pictures, then when I was ready to put it on the blog...I stumbled upon something out there in blog town, that was just similar enough to make me wary of stepping on anyone's toes. So, I went back to the cutting board and came up with a new project but, I just couldn't get it all done in the 2 hours Miss Ringlet was at school. Add to that an achy, shivery, queasy feeling about to turn into a lurgy coming over me, and all I want to do is go back to bed on this cold gray day. So, I will have a tutorial for you come Friday, along with the winner of the wallet!

For now, I will leave you with some flickr fantastic colorful and cozy images that make me smile.
