SOMEONE will love me enough to send me here.
I gasp at the amount of talent in one place at one time, and the fact that it's in Salt Lake City to boot **le sigh** Anyway, I'll continue to dream for yet another year. Yesterday was somewhat productive, not so much creative, but productive just the same. Awhile ago, one of my dogs had chewed a hole in my 15 year old, soft as butta, can't be replaced Ralph Lauren duvet cover. It wasn't his fault, I might add, his bone had gotten stuck in the flap, and the only way for him to retrieve it was to chew through it, I get it, really, I do. Well, I do now at the time I was heart broken. But yesterday it came in handy. I used a corner of it to make a beautiful, soft as butta, like brand new, better than the original mini duvet cover for my heating pad. Like I said, it wasn't a totally creative day, so of course there's no photos as of yet. I dropped my husband off at the airport, then returned home to make the meals I don't make when he's home. I've explained this before, but my husband is 100% Irish and was, from what I can understand, raised without educated taste buds. He's come really far in our 17 years together, but in the beginning it was hard. I come from a Mom that cooked gourmet meal almost every night of the week. When I would complain to my friends,"ugh, we had steak again last night for dinner", they would shake their heads and pretty much say, jokingly, "POOR YOU". So when we first started dating and I was obsessed with Mexican and Thai we would go out to dinner, and, no matter where it was, Tim would order grilled chicken, mash potato and corn... anyway, thanks to rooming with my sister for years before we got married, his taste buds have developed. But there are still things that he doesn't like. So I treat myself to them when he is gone. I spent the rest of the night snuggled in bed with the dogs engrossed in Uppercase Mag's blog. I could have ordered every single back issue and a subscription for the next 10 years, if i only had the money. At 10p we went out for one last wintry walk, a light snow had fallen, and everything glistened, the way it should in winter, the air smelled clean, and I smiled to myself at how happy I was right there in that very moment. Today it's back to the grind, sort of. Although I took a vacation day from work, I still have wedding contracts to write up, emails for newborn shoots to answer, and with the announcements made yesterday by Apple, I have software to install and a book to write, that's all. What are you doing today?
