So classic.

Chic Mudroom

This makes me seriously wish I lived in a place that requires a mudroom...

Thinking about getting this for the pup.  I'd love to do it in time for March Madness, but not sure how much he's going to grow.  Since he's almost outgrown the sweater I bought him, I think I'm going to hold off... I know it makes me that person but I know he'll get a lot of use out of a Texas jersey!

Panic and run amok.

LOVE this... too funny.

All you who are weary...

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” - Matthew 11:28-30

Nothing less than butterflies

Based on the day, part of me wanted to write a post ranting on the past and recent injustices that I felt have happened to me.  But then I realized that it's just the pain and exhaustion talking... I'm not angry and things work out like they are supposed to.  Then I thought about something an old friend told me seven (?) years ago.  I was searching for this particular quote and ran across some old writings of mine... some made me cry, some made me laugh and some reminded me of my favorite songs I forgot even existed.  I was going to post some of my favorites... but maybe another time.

However, here is the one I was looking for from Feb 20, 2004 (although I know the wisdom predates that by some time):

"don't settle for less than the most amazing person, that person who steals your heart but throws his right back at you, the guy who won't make you cry, but wipes your tears and holds you while you do."


A reminder to get back to my hope that there be nothing less than butterflies.
