We are coming up on our sixth day of dreary weather and gray skies and I am starting to pull my hair out. I am aching for sunshine and warmth. I am counting the days until we are back in California. (No offense, east coast, the homesickness – that lay dormant for 1.5 years – is getting to me.)
Inspired by this and this blog this past weekend. What is inspiring you?
Here’s my inspiration post from last week (I do them every Friday): http://desireefawn.blogspot.com/2009/03/fawned-friday_13.html

I’m with you on the dreariness. I’m training for the Avon Walk and had to walk 12 miles in the rain on Saturday. Which was not fun–and I took the hottest shower ever when I got back!–but was still better than three hours on a treadmill. 🙂
Lately I am inspired by the possibilities… I’m going to spend nine days with my best friend whom I haven’t seen in four years! We both make jewelry and are taking a couple of metallurgy classes while I’m there. I can’t wait! Even if it is in Seattle, which means more rain. 🙂

You should totally find a way to glue those together and make a cute wall-hanging or trivet or something.

Rain rain… I felt that same rain yesterday… I’m in D.C… Visiting my dear dear boyfriend who is at Walter Reed Military Hospital. We drove past a Paper Source the day before yesterday… And I wondered if that was where you worked. I couldn’t even tell you what street we were on… I just know that there was a Chipotle down the street because that’s where we were headed.
So hello to you if you are close to here! 🙂
p.s. I can’t stand the traffic and parking here. I’m going to go nuts!
