More evidence of spring..



I am feeling very floral lately. I guess it's all the flowers that are starting to pop up everywhere. Spring is the best time to be in the desert. The weather is fabulous and there is color!

This is from the flowering plum in the backyard. My back-up camera and I are still learning the ropes together, but I'll take it..

Is it spring where you are yet??

It's Saturday! And that means it's time for Five Senses Friday... Thanks so much to Abby Try Again for sharing this wonderful idea! Seeing: My art teacher's house at a BBQ tonight. It was such a lovely space. Smelling: Baked beans simmering in the crockpot. droool... Tasting: Cherries! Again, I know. But this was off the cherry tree in the yard! I beat the birds to one! Feeling: Content and excited for a move this fall. Hearing: The kitty happily purring next to me. Love that sound! Play along if you like (comment and let me know if you do, I want to see what you come up with!). I enjoyed this little experiment in the senses. See you for another next week!

Mostly lots of BBQ. Can't wait to get shots of the lovely old west buildings for some art projects I'm pl

Today, a completely random thought post. Including a completely random photo that has nothing to do with what I am saying. I just like to have pictures in my posts, I think it makes them pretty...=) The wind has finally died down and I am really looking forward to a walk tonight after my second to last ever math class! Have I mentioned that I am excited to be done with the class!?! No, well I am! The professor is one of those people who thinks he is funny, but really is not. He is also one of those people who thinks jokes make the class more fun, but has not the timing for such a thing. As a result, the class is primarily uncomfortable and full of awkward silences. That is when he acknowledges that there are other people in the room besides himself. You know the ones right?!? I have been trying to focus on the positive and most of the time I can laugh about whatever it is eventually. And, eventually this will also be hilaaaaaaarious... yeah, right after I finish my final on Mond

Zeitgeist and the month of December…

makes I am planning to blog through the month of December, you know one of those blog everyday kind of clubs.  I like the idea of them a lot – though I’m not promising anything spectacular, because I tend to get sidetracked a lot, but I am planning to blog at least a little. I wasn’t even going to bother attempting another one of these things – the dismal failures and the guilt, the added stress from the guilt, who needs it really!?! I suppose if I actually made it all the way through I’d feel pretty awesome but it’s all good. Actually, what most excited me about this blog all the month thing was the theme – Zeitgeist – isn’t that just one of the coolest words ever? It just sounds cool.  I am thinking of adopting it as my theme for 2011 – I’m not joking, I like it that much. In case you don’t know (or haven’t googled a defintion yet) here’s an overview of the meaning from wikipedia : is "the spirit of the times" or "the spirit of the age." Zeitgeist is the ge
