spring lists on a friday morning.
Friday, April 04, 2014
even though the past few days here in vegas have brought about a drop in temperatures and fierce winds, it is still spring, and just the thought of t-shirts and sunglasses, jean shorts and flip flops is enough to get me through. summer (especially here in vegas) is just around the corner.
though our winters are mild, there is always a shift when spring comes along. suddenly we spend more time outside, open the windows, clean out the cobwebs both in our homes and our lives, and spend more time with friends and family.
my to-do list is stacking up. most of the items on it are a work in progress, something that i won't have the satisfaction of striking off for some time, but i take comfort in knowing that i'm working towards something. i never have been one to like standing still, waiting on the peripheral of what's next. but this morning... this morning i'm thinking about the here and now.
things that catch my eye.

green eyes
textures

"All Of Me" is on repeat over here! And I'm pretty certain my "things I want to purchase but shouldn't" list would be a mile long :/
ReplyDeletePortland is pretty rad. That's where I grew up. It's not the place for me, not during this season in my life, anyway. But a very rad place, nonetheless.
ReplyDeleteAnd the nape of Madden's neck is one of my favorite smells ever. Every night during bedtime I bury my face there and give him a million little kisses that send him into a fit of giggles. And once he's fallen asleep I creep back in his room and cuddle him once more. Every. Single. Night. Sometimes I feel like a weirdo, but I'm glad I'm not alone ;)
