Hey, A Quilt!

The quilt is almost done. While spreading out the top quilt to test the size against our bed I clicked this bad boy into being.

Staycation

Philadelphia is a beautiful city. Ryan and I needed a break, and decided to pinch pennies a bit by staying in our city to take in its splendor.
We spent time:
Cafe Ole', Philadelphia, Pa. here
Bus Tour of Philadelphia Double Decker Bus riding one of these!!
Checking out the Rosenbach Museum.
Looking at trees at the Jenkins Arboretum.
Not having to cook!
and being kinda romantic like.

Super Friends

I have a super friend named Brian (or Brain as we call him at Trader Joe's). He got married to a pretty special woman, Danielle. They did something really neat for their wedding reception. Instead of having one party to celebrate their marriage and love for each other they had multiple parties all over the country. They also played music at every location, so it was really a splendid tour-reception-fun time- party.
Heres a photo from the shindig in Philly.
Garden Party Show
Brian is in the striped shirt, and Danielle is in the pretty red dress.
They are really great people.

Let Me Show You Around

Here are a few glimpse of our living room.
Frames
Ryan had enough with the empty frames we had decorating our shelves, and took them down.
Found Photos on Display
Last summer Ryan and I went to an estate sale. Ryan got a box containing a Polaroid camera. These photos were also in the box. Aren't they a lucky find? We strung them up over the weekend.
Birthday Bell Jars
Here are a few birthday gifts. I love this photo with the cute clay bird peeking in.

Your Scent Means More in Memory (Part 2)

I find myself giving taking a deep breath in and holding when I give hugs. I always inhale a little bit of a persons scent. Lately, I've been catching whiffs of perfume dance around me that remind me of my Grandma.
It smells a lot like:

Reasons I'm A Bad Blogger

  • I work 3 jobs. I average about 40ish hours a week, however there is no rhyme or reason to my schedual. Working till 4AM isn't an abnormal thing for me, yet the guilt of sleeping past noon always seeps in somehow.
  • I'm doing lots of doing. A quilt is in the works; a gallery application has a deadline; a special surprise is being made; many job applications, and cover letters are being sent; lost of schmoozing at job fairs by yours truly.
  • Excluding today, the weather has been lovely. I want to play outside; I don't want to be in front of a screen.

Thats all, and I'm sorry. I'll try to be a better blogger.
