Amazing!

Yesterday I spent far too much time being selfish - which lead me to be disappointed. My guy went out of town for 4 days for work - and I actually missed him! I say this because I thought I would never depend on anyone enough to "miss" them when they are gone. I keep myself busy with work - friends - life...I try not to get too attached. No idea where this came from...it's weird - but then again I am faaaar from normal. But I found myself thinking about him alot when he was gone. Before I picked him up from the airport I had all sorts of ideas going through my head - you know - romance type things - candles, time alone watching the latest netflick, cuddling on the couch - all the mushy romantic things.... Instead he walked in the door and fell alseep on the couch within 5 minutes! Not even enough time to light a damn candle or put the movie in! So I was disappointed - to say the least. After thinking about it...I realized how selfish and silly I was feeling... he was tired and in a Dramine induced state and truely tired. To top it off he made up for it today - he went shopping with me - he seriously hates shopping! He also went to 3 different Bicycle shops while I searched for the perfect pair of spinning shoes (which I have yet to $#@& find!?!). He didn't complain once! He actually wanted to spend time with me!
He is awesome! He is truely amazing!

Watch and enjoy - dance and be happy - life is far too short to be "disappointed" over stupid shit! Hug your significant other and tell them they are AMAZING! *hugs*

"blah!"

Photographers must have loved me...

This is how I felt about weight training today - I really need to get my ass in gear! I make it to spinning 4-5 days a week (sometimes even 6!? Believe - I am no gym bunny!) - but I just can't seem to get my ass in gear and focus on strength training - I know it's important -

I just "don't feel like it"! It's always "tomorrow definitely" or "absolutely next week" or this week it's "I promise for February"!

so...is it February yet?

Baby with attitude

Nope - not smiling today - not until I have my apple juice stirred, not shaken....

Guess who?

It was a good day!

Today was a day of learning. A day of relaxing, destressing and pampering - today was all about me! (...yes, even more so then my usual day ;p) We took a ride to Winstead, CT to attend a pampering workshop with a beautiful goddess. I love the ride to Winstead - lots of beautiful old homes to drool over...lots of old shops and new shops...lots of trees and snow...just a nice relaxing drive. It seems every time I go to Winstead - I come home relaxed and inspired - today was no different!
I had a fabulous morning sipping tea with some new friends, as well as some old. I learned all sorts of ways to pamper and improve myself. I can't wait to go "sacred shopping" and pick up some of the supplies I will need and put to use what I have learned! *ahhhh* It was a wonderful day!
Sure, I would have loved to have my very own cabana boy massage my kinks, feed me grapes and cater to my every whim...but I gave him the afternoon off! So instead I melted into my smushie couch cuddling in my down comforter, enjoyed another cup of hot herbal tea and read the next few chapters of The Inner Temple.
***ahhhhh!***

fellin' quite purple...

ok - I was feelin' somewhat blue (but that was so yesterday!...**g**) since my Eagles tanked - as usual! But I am feeling positive because Shaney's team is pushing thru strong - the Steelers may still bring happiness in this home *laughs* Whateva' ! 'tis why I try never to be a football fan - would rather not be upset over silly quarter back/corner back/safety/linebacker shit...truely shit when my life is so happy - my life anyhow! Hope yours is the same....

Here is todays page start - started one yesterday - but failed to take a picture before starting this one...stickiness prevents pictures - or that is what my excuse is....

Feeling purple and feeling good!

...what about you?...

What color are you feeling at this very moment?

breathe....

Live. Life. Breathe. Relax.Made this for my mom. Pressed a leaf I collected, added some beautiful golden paint and a few handmade lavender beads.

Unfortunately she is battling hurthle cell cancer. Figures, it's one of the rarest cancers to detect and battle - us Firda's never do anything easy!

I am sure she would love all your healing engeries....

It made me think of her and life in CA - sadly no wonderful fall colors (paradise my ass mom!)

Hopefully it will remind her to breathe and relax!

I love you mom!

Unfinished...

A few unfinished sculpey figures that I started months back that I really want to finish today - figured if I post them here - it will make me get off the internet and actually complete something.

I went to the gym...made delicious french toast for my guy...going to jump in the shower...

and I will...
Play more with my arts and crafts and maybe finish this art journal page!
Wish me luck...
