Has a month really gone by already? sigh. I could blame the lack of posts on a problem getting photos to load from my camera. But of course, posts don't HAVE to have photos. They are much more interesting tho. No need to blame anyone or anything. There. done.

I splurged and bought a new quilt and things for my bedroom. Dear friend Ray, who helped me carry a dresser upstairs last year, looked around at my quilt and pillows and potttery and flowery things and said, your room is awfully girly. I told him it was ok, I'm a girl. If he saw it now, he'd shake his head and say it was even more girly. I think it's just pretty myself - light aqua-blue with roses and lilacs and leaves and lots of white to balance. The only thing I don't like is the off-white walls. Hazards of renting I suppose. But I love the new look! It's light and bright and fresh. and girly - ha!
