Happy Weekend Everyone!!

Mr. G and I are still mushing through the frozen tundra....
BUT
we are getting super excited for Sunday night..
Lots of ice and bling to see from all those lovely ladies on the red carpet...
We may just have to pull out our sunnies...
Even more exciting..
we will be crossing our fingers and paws for our cousin
who was part of the 12 Years a Slave ensemble..
It seemed to work for the Golden Globes...
However..
we may have to cut out early as he will making an appearance on our new favorite show..
Nothing better than the magic of Hollywood as they transform a gorgeous man into a creepy meth addict named Jimmy Ledoux..

We are sooo proud of you Cuz..
See..
Good things come to those who wait!!

Be Safe, Pull out your Best Bling and Have a Great Weekend!!

a little glitter to start your week...

It may be a bit too early in the season to think about fish...
However..
 Last week started the countdown for my Pisces lovelies..
Luckily, there are way too many fish in my life to count...
Yet, I am a bit bias as they surely are the most sparkliest of the bunch..

Happy Weekend!!!

Happy Weekend Everyone!!!

It's official..
I now live in an igloo...
Even though the first day of Spring is only one month away...
it seems like light years..
Cold, ice, wind, rain and snow has taken its toll on us
New Englanders..
Much like an indoor plant...
I find myself moving and stretching to find the light and possibly a bit of sun to my raise my spirit..
Luckily..
Mr. G does just that for me..
He has become a snow dog..
I think perhaps he believes he could mush with the best of them..
Romping, jumping and even smiling through at least a foot of snow and never giving up even though it hinders his daily duties..
His persistence, joy and courage warms my heart and seems to melt all that wicked ice away..
I find my self daydreaming of his first Spring..
The feeling of new grass, emerging crocuses through the soft earth, strange new little creatures awakening in the garden, the songs of birds in the trees and the sweet sweet air perfumed with flowering trees..
Sounds heavenly right?!
But he is teaching me to be in the now...
to find light when it seems only to be dark..
to find warmth when it seems only to be cold..
to find joy when it seems only to be melancholy..

Be Safe, Make a Snow Angel and Have a Great Weekend!!
