This week looks to be bittersweet.
I had crazy exciting news last Monday about a possible opportunity set for the fall. I also booked a trip to NYC in eight days {I'm not counting down or anything...} to finalize my fabric designs. We had a really nice week away, but let's also be honest ~ visiting family is not without its challenges. I'm still coming out of the fibroid shenanigans, waiting for a final check up, and for my body and moods to return to normal. And Reilly is not well. It's unbearable - most of all for me to watch him meow to Sean, his loyal companion for 17 years, who feels helpless in providing him comfort during this time.
When life gives me lemons and lemonade at the same time, it can be challenging to focus on the lemonade. The secret is figuring out what gets me appreciating the lemonade. All of a sudden I'm really craving a glass of lemonade. I think a lemonade from Lemonade is in order. Maybe I need to just call this post Lemonade instead? Ok, fine I added it to the title.
When I need a little pick me up I need pretty. {see exhibit a above}
I think I might need a skirt like Sean's four year old niece.
A glass of zinfandel from our favorite Napa winery V. Sattui would be good.
The ranunculus I just went ahead brought home with me.
I also need to create.
I need some cucumber mint lemonade.
