I love Elves

I don’t mean Santas elves either. I mean the LOTR kind of elves. The cities portrayed in those kinds of book and paintings are beautiful. This is one of my favorites. I look online for them from time to time, just for the serenity they bring. I hope you guys like this one.

A little depressed

I don’t know what is wrong with my today. I just can’t seem to get out of this funk. Life has been a bit difficult lately, but I am usually not one to become morose over it. I think it is time to snap myself out of this and need a distraction to do it. I think I will take the kids to a movie this afternoon. Actually it will be early evening, but we can go for pizza and a movie. That will make them very happy. I hope they don’t have a lot of homework to do. We shall see.

Shopping

Well Easter is well on it’s way and the time has come to stock up on the supplies I will need for Easter Sunday. I have to make baskets, and dye eggs with the kids as well as prep every thing for Easter dinner. I have so much to do and want to get a head start in it so I don’t have to run crazy later. Sometimes that happens and then I am stuck running around like achicken with it’s head cut off. (eww) Bad analogy, but you certainly understand my reasoning. Why are some of the oldest analogies so gross? Oh well, gotta go. Talk to you guys later.
