It is the start of "Winter Blues Week" with m.heart. I am not sure how many blue posts I will have this week but it is a fun way to count down to spring. I am showing these sweet forget-me-nots from last year. They are one of the first little flowers that abundantly appear in May. Not too much else goes on up here before these and we are still covered in snow. May seems like a long time to wait to see flowers and after traveling this weekend to my hometown I witnessed a land with no snow, warm sunny days and Robins! Yes, I saw Robins so it is Spring somewhere.

The trip to my mom's was a nice little getaway. Pajama Girl got to have another party with grandma and I got to relax a bit. Pretty uneventful but did actually get to go to a large book store and sit on the floor and just look at books with no interruption. A luxury for me as we have no large book stores around and usually I have Pajama Girl begging to go someplace else. I ended up with quite the bagful and delighted with all my new finds. I was also able to hit a large craft/hobby store and picked up some supplies for my next venture.
Blue will not really be my mood this week but I was a bit blue to learn while I was home visiting a dear high school friend of mine was there as well visiting and we had no clue about our timing. She tuned in to my blog too late and we were both besides ourselves regarding this discovery on Sunday. I had felt her energy there and was talking about here with another friend right down to the point of wanting to call her to ask her a question. Mary K, so sorry we missed each other...I miss you much! Tell your dad I still laugh about the broom or the mop or whatever it was that had us in tears from laughter that day many many years ago. This forget-me-not is for you, Mary K, and we will never let this happen again!
