making my own spring

This is my best attempt at bringing a little spring to my life…I dug through my pictures of flowers and will post them here to bring in Spring.  It was fun flipping through all my older pictures.  This was taken early last summer.  Mom and Dad brought me some potted annuals, dahlias, in a cool pot.  This was one of the flowers that did really well.  So pretty.  smile

Yesterday Chris and I talked about my blahness…what is causing it etc.  I came up with what I posted yesterday, winter blues, and after the big project blahness.  I’m not in the mood to do anything, but I’m craving the satsified feeling of accomplishment.  I really don’t want to feel either, so my flower picture idea is my defense for the winter blues.  And to combat the blahness I decided to work on putting together our Jamaica scrap book.  It is a source of creativity, and needs to get done.  I worked on it the majority of last night and have everything in it from Jamaica.  Now just have to add the pics from the celebration party.  This will hopefully give me the sense of accomplishment and fight off the blahness.  We shall see how it goes.  This weekend we’re planning some more house stuff, stripping and staining some wood.  That’s been a chore I’ve been putting off for close to a year.

In the evenings or between coats of polyurithane I plan of working on some flowers.  Small ones, to get my color juices flowing.  I already have three hand bouquets put together, but they need leaves.  And I’m just not in the mood for greens.  tongue rolleye

Here’s hoping you beat the winter blahs.

That is a beautiful flower!! It is much prettier than all the snow that is outside my window. :0

Oh yeah, I love those dahlias. They look so cuddly! smile And I really know what you mean regarding this blahness. I have been feeling it, too, recently. I have not yet finished my bookmark although I could have done. And I am not working hard enough on my sweater, either.
