Well hello again neglected blog – how are you?
Here are just a few things I thought I would share:
My spoiled animals – who have become ESPECIALLY spoiled during the week while Dylan is working out of town (aka, the dog thinks the people bed is now a doggy bed)
Please note that there is very little room for me when all is said and done here.
It’s January in Portland which means it should be cold and rainy and miserable. Instead we’ve been having some almost spring-like weather lately. So it probably won’t stop raining until July this year. But one morning a few weeks ago I had to grab my camera and take a picture of the most amazing sky as the sun was coming up. This was my favorite.
I loved the bare wiry trees against the pink sky.
And lastly way back when I made my 30 by 30 list. I crossed a few things off in 2009:
- Grew Dahlias (and some even bloomed)
- Took a train from Bridgeport CT into NYC (Amtrak, the real thing)
- Made a quilt for someone
- Went to a NCAA tournament basketball game (Go Zags!
- Have a well trained dog (minus the whole sleeping on the bed thing)
I’ve had a few nice bottles of wine here and there, but I’m not sure I’m ready to cross it off my list. But most importantly, here is what I plan on tackling in 2010.
- Read the Bible
- Learn to drive a car with a manual transmission
- Grow a vegetable garden
I think that is a good start for the year. Plus I’ll be chipping away at things like my Pulitzer reading list. And I turn 25 this year, so only 5 years to go!
