peachy keen.

it's friday evening, and i was feeling good about the weekend. but as i sit here typing, i can hear the minis outside bickering. mini-she is in her defiant pre-teens, while mini-he is approaching his fabulously frightful fours. not a pleasant combination. they are constantly. bickering. now it continues inside as mini-she nags demands begs asks me why she can't

meet her friends. (she's already grounded, by the way).

so much for a quiet, relaxing weekend.

i'm going to pour myself an orange dreamsicle and

keep telling myself that everything is peachy keen.

what's going on in your neck of the woods?

taking it back.

waaaay back.

super old blazer from the corporate office days and the first skinny denims i ever bought. while i'm still more comfortable in my floor-dragging flares, these skinnys are comfortable enough for a relaxed day at the office.

mini-he's birthday is coming up next week.

i'll be scouring pinterest for ideas. if you got any good ones,

throw 'em my way, will ya?

easter candy...someone stop me.

tangled.

i received a couple of phone calls notifying me that a long time friend had passed away. he was only in his thirties. i won't get into the details, but just want to say...if you feel tangled up in any way, overwhelmed by your feelings or life in general, talk to someone. anyone. and if you know someone who seems tangled in their emotions, be a friend. be there for them. listen to them.

i retired this chain necklace a while ago because a couple of the chains were broken. the whole thing is a tangled mess, and i haven't had the patience to untangle it. well, after fussing with it for a bit, i decided that i like it better this way.

i even tangled a few more of the chains. rebel.

love the ring, but it actually arrived with a big crack

in the stone. it may have to go back.

i have no idea what this is, but it's so delicious...chocolate chips sandwiched between a chocolate crust and a citrusy layer.
