Getting Back On Track

Today's been much better. I've felt much better and it's no doubt thanks to all of you wonderful blogger friends out there. There's been much talk in the comments of last post about how much fun a blogger convention/meet up would be. I would so love that, though I think the reality of it would not be very feasible. What is it about blogging that brings bonds so quickly. I think that for me, personally, I'm quicker to open up and be honest when I'm writing. I express myself better in writing and I'm also hiding behind a computer. I can be more honest when doing that. So all of my blogger friends get to know me more intimately, more quickly than others do. I think that may be the reason why good friendships are formed so quickly in blogland. I think it's also easier to find people with similar interest to you on the internet. There are SO many people available....the whole world's available via the web. For instance...I'm thinking of Carl and Elaine...I feel like they are my twins sometimes. Yet one lives in Kansas City and the other in the UK. What would be the chances of me finding them as friends if it weren't for blogs. I'm happy for blogs and I'm thankful to all of you out there for putting a smile on my face every day, entertaining me, and for letting me into your lives and supporting me in mine. I appreciate it.

Sunday has been a good day for me. The day started with picking veggies in the garden. Our garden is doing so well! We've probably picked about 30 squash since those have started producing and we picked 9 bell peppers today. We also fried an eggplant with dinner tonight and have quite a few of those growing as well. We have TONS of tomatoes on the bushes right now, but they're all green and look like they'll all turn red at the same time. I have no idea what we'll do with all of those. I don't even like tomatoes.

We also went to Michael's today because I wanted to get a picture frame for a postcard I bought in Mexico of Our Lady of Guadalupe. It's on antiqued paper and then put on cheesecloth and it's really pretty. I love religious art pertaining to any religion be it Christianity, Buddhism, Paganism, anything. Just love it! I also have some other postcards that I got from Mexico that I would like to frame, but I haven't found the right frames yet. While I was there, I also found a nice little shadowbox that will be a home for some of my little red poppets :) I think little pink will join them when she arrives. I think they like it in there. My favorite purchase were these four sheets of paper that I found and I have absolutely no idea what to do with them, but they were beautiful! They were 4 for $1 so I had to buy them. Don't you do stuff with paper Elaine? What should I do? I love the Once Upon A Time one...thought of the challenge right away. They have a whole series of these. If you have a Michaels around you Carl, you should stop by....very cool stuff.

So how was everyone else's Sunday? Colleen wrote a post that sounded like a delightful Sunday...laying in bed with Smartfood White Cheddar popcorn and reading Harry Potter! Ooh, and the Friends of English Magic blog posted it's review of the Stardust movie and it is a great one! Check it...
