There's No Place Like Home

Feeling very sepia today and wishing that a whirlwind might turn it into a technicolor day, ala Dorothy Gale.

Which begs the question: Am I a good witch?

Until I schedule a much-needed hair chop, I'm doing the two braids flipped on top the head look.

Turns out I'm somewhat on-trend.

Yodelay hee hoo!

Bizarro World

I've been wanting to post about wintry things. Food, clothes, places, and spaces to warm your heart when you have to face the bitter, bitter cold. Except this has been our winter:

 

Where am I? I'm so confused. I'm going to take a walk to sort my thoughts out. In sandals. With iced coffee.

Just To Do It

I love a To Do list.

Nothing makes me feel more in control and productive than having one. Not accomplishing the tasks necessarily, but just the fact that such a list exists. And gets re-written. I'm often old school, paper & pen, since the motion of crossing off an item is pure joy indeed, but I also have found the following electronic forms useful:

Wunderlist

Awesome Note

The Hit List

Remember the Milk

Do It Tomorrow

Johnny Cash also enjoyed listing his to-dos...

I could have checked off a few of the above today. Can you guess which ones? Hint: I do not play the piano.

Saying Goodbye

My heart has been healing over the last few weeks. It will always have a piece missing, but I do believe other pieces will thrive and grow and make it feel complete. Now it's time to get back to the world of meeting deadlines, accomplishing goals, cleaning, socializing and yes, blogging. See you soon.
