First Love

So little to say but so much time,
despite my empty mouth the words are in my mind.
Please wear the face, the one where you smile,
because you lighten up my heart when I start to cry.

Forgive me first love, but I’m tired.
I need to get away to feel again.
Try to understand why.

Oh Adele, your voice is perfect when I'm feeling low.

May's list

I love lists. That's why I'm starting a list of goals per month. This month may be a wee bit late but better than never right? We shall see how many things I can cross off by the end of this month!

1. Fill out and turn in all job applications.

2. Luna's last puppy shots.

3. Izzy's eye examined (removal?)

4. Organize and get rid of unneeded clothes.

5. Keep on track. Exercise!

6. Eat better, drink more water.

7. Pay for classes.

8. Turn in book.

9. Insurance good grades discount (why is it so friggin hard to get a signature?!)

10. It just kills me to leave off on 9 sooo...smile more!

Coming home from vacation to a sick pug

My little one had an accident the day we got back from Colombia. We were very excited to see her but instead were left shocked and horrified to see her sitting calmly with her left eyeball red and bulging out of the socket looking straight from a horror movie. We immediately took her to the ER, me sobbing and singing to her the whole way..behind a car going 15 miles BELOW the speed limit (what the f dude?!). She is recovering now and just four days later is back to her firecracker self (she tries picking fights with pitbulls). What a trooper.



Next week we have an appointment to remove the stitches and hopefully take off that dreadful cone around her head. She absolutely hates it and so do we. She constantly scrapes it against my leg to get as close to me as possible. My furbaby.

frick.

Ever been so overwhelmed with stuff you have left to do with so little time to do it that you can't help but ignore it all and spend waste your time doing frivolous things instead like Internet browsing? Ok so maybe that's just me. Two exams tomorrow, one on Friday and today is pretty much my only day to pack in time for a 9 day trip to Colombia! But I like to put things off.. I work well under pressure is what I tell people. It usually works out with minimal hair pulling.

And here I am....blogging. Oh the insanity of it all.

Anyway, I am in that hairs transition period of deciding whether or not to let it keep growing or go back to my roots and chop it off. I really can't decide.

The beloved Zooey?



or the all stylish Calivintage? (one of her earlier cuts)



or perhaps I should go for a bit of asymmetry like LabelofHope had?



Oh decisions. It's just something else to occupy my time instead of doing what I really should be doing..like studying. Bleh.

Oh man...

These little ones are just too much for my uterus. Darn this whole needing to finish school, find a decent job and get married thing. Doesn't life realize that I really need one of these wriggly cuties like immediately.

and on a side note...

Job interview on Friday! I'm hoping to be able to quit my current job very soon! We shall soon see. It's time for a change.

dress is from Anthropologie.

Confession..

I have one. I love weddings. Not the hum drum typical church weddings, don't get me wrong, they're fine and all and I have nothing against traditional weddings (to each his own) but I sort of have an obsession with off-beat weddings. Even though I'm not even engaged, I will still find myself day dreaming of color schemes and the little aesthetics involved in my possible wedding. Sad huh?

Anyway.







Someone needs to buy this dress for a simple yet heartfelt garden wedding. You know the kind that involves lots of handmade details, fresh flowers, pitchers of lemonade and homeade pies. That kind.
