love thursday...for shutter sisters...


i pack my love in a baloney sandwich.

**********************

that said, i had another realization last night
as flickr told me i had exceeded my limit of uploaded pictures...
i realized i need to figure out paypal.
i realized i need to upgrade my flickr account.
i realized i am addicted to flickr.
sadly, i am not too knowledgeable {and a little fearful}
of paypal {hence the fact i can never order anything
from all the etsy shops i love...}
any hints...is it safe? is it easy?



strawberry plants and hummingbirds...and a realization.

i was going to start this post off
with an apology...
a "sorry this seems so much like a gardening blog lately
instead of a..."
well..of a what?
what kind of blog is this really?
how do i define it?
should i define it?
can it be defined?

and then i realized,
in my head, i correlate blog with journal.
that's why i'm not overly hung up on comments
{however, i LOVE comments, so if you do comment,
please don't stop!!!}
but if i had no comments, i don't think i would stop
coming here...day after day...

i like that at the beginning of each month,
i can go back 3 years and see where i was at.
i think it helps to make me try to think creatively.
i like thinking about it throughout the day...
what to write, what pictures to post...

and speaking of pictures...

our new hummingbird feeder....

and squirrel feeder....


and i am sooooo excited about the strawberry plants...
we have the hanging basket which she said should give a bowl
a day,
plus 20 plants for the garden...


plants waiting for the fear of frost to go away...

tomatoes, lettuce, cucumber...

i love summer.

stream of conscious saturday...


april 2008 031, originally uploaded by gkgirl.

a walk to work-silent sun in my eyes
words bouncing + tumbling
ideas forming + shaping
shifting + evolving
i can't keep up
with my own pace
blue sky above the green of the trees
time
endless
blows me away
stream of consciousness in a
quiet office
scribble scrabble sketchy etchings
of a 20 minute walk
a foray into my mind


i think this might be my new saturday thing for a bit...
to just come to the page,
write pell mell and happenstance.
see where it takes me
on a stream of consciousness saturday

friday-i'm-in-love...

with what i'm looking forward to:

family fun night at my eight's elementary school tonight...
i'm taking my camera in hopes of getting some good pictures
of him in a different environment...

working in the garden this weekend...my dad is coming with
the rototiller and i'm armed with sheep manure and peat.

a drive to look at the huge wind turbines on sunday maybe...
definitely taking the camera.

take out tonight and bbq the rest of the weekend...

yay fridays! {especially sunny ones}
