The blog and I

needed to take a break.  The blog was pressuring me, and I wasn't ready to be pressured.  The blog makes me anxious because it makes me analyze and judge myself, and it makes me constantly feel like I need to think up things to say to put on it.  The blog makes me feel unpopular.

So, the blog went to time out.  

I feel a little better about the blog now.  We've set some boundaries, readjusted our expectations and worked out a few other kinks in our relationship.  We're going to try for another go around, just to see how it goes.

So no, if you tried to read this blog and you weren't able to, and then you thought that you weren't my friend because I didn't invite you to my private blog, no that was not the case.  The blog just wasn't available to play for a little while.  It was refreshing and nice, actually.  

ANYWAY, today I'm just trying to get some stuff cleaned up, do some laundry, and get some stuff ready for the weekend.  We're going to AZ for my cousin's homecoming from Mexico.  Should be a fun time!  But I HATE coming home to a messy house.  One of my biggest pet peeves.  So, I should probably get back to all those chores.

Oh, want to know something funny?  I got up early today!  I grabbed my yoga mat and did some stretches/little bit of yoga.  Then, as I was in a deep state of relaxation afterward, I fell asleep for two more hours.  Forget it.  Morning hates me.

Anyway, here are some pictures of things that I love.  I didn't take them, and I don't know where they are from.  I just save pictures to a "Things I love" folder on my computer when I come across them, so that I can possibly replicate them or at least just stare at them when I'm feeling sad.  So, enjoy:
