The stove top espresso maker and cups I got for Rob that he never uses...

Home

The chair in our front room that I like to read in.

Morning

I was up really late reading so this is what I saw when I rolled out of bed. I promptly went back to sleep. Ah Spring Break.

Favorite

A bracelet my Great Uncle turned for me. Now I just have to get my hands on one of his bowls!

Morning

I have been getting to work too early, so l have been bringing along a book to read in the car.

Favorite

A weirdly painted lamp I got from Good Will. I just really like it for some reason. The flowers remind me of eggs. I also have to make sure to unplug it whenever I leave the room because it's super old and has seemingly faulty wiring.

Something I made to eat

Apricot pear pie

Something I Made to Eat

Hot Chocolate

A Shadow

5 o'clock (ish)

A Shadow

Light and shadow from the traffic going by on the Mass Turnpike reflected in our living room.

Something I'm Thinking About

This is actually a screenshot. I've been watching the Being Human (UK) for the last few weeks and saw the season finale today. This is Hal, he's a vampire, over 500 years old, has OCD tendencies to keep off blood and is my new favorite. So adorable. 

Something I'm Thinking About

How hot this summer is probably going to be...

My Closet

Most is my stuff, the rest is other family members that just like to leave clothes here for their visits. 

Fragile

Old Christmas decorations my Mom hasn't taken back to Oregon with her. I'm always worried I'll accidentally break them. 

Close Up

The inside of a really old, tiny, rare book. I love these end pages of old books. 

My Closet

Lots of dresses

Something Fragile

The lamp part of this is broken- you can see the cracks in the base.

Something Fragile

A self portrait...ha ha lame!

My itsy bitsy thumb drive I take everywhere.

The pencil sharpener at work and the note left for me for when I arrived.

Green

Our new frying pans

A Corner

There used to be a laundry cage here with a chute from upstairs. When we were young we would take turns lowering each other down the chute to be trapped. Now it's gone.

Next week part 1

March 22: close up

A corner

The light obscures it and my feet are in the foreground but there is a corner in there somewhere

A Corner

A bit boring on this one... but here is our our kitchen window sill with its billion layers of white paint.

An Unfinished Task

An unfinished task

Getting photos together from my trip to send my Grandma

An Unfinished Task

We need to pay our stupid excise bill.

Scary

An article about the exotic animals set loose in Ohio. 

Scary

The car on front of me got pulled over

Scary

Teddy Roosevelt with vampire teeth!

Something Seasonal

We're in the rainy season so my rain boots have gotten some use. 

Pattern and seasonal

Forgive the delay working two jobs makes me cranky and tired but I just keep thinking providence... The tie is seasonal

Something Seasonal

Our spring "Easter-like" towel with our bright green kettle.

Pattern

This was originally a birthday present of my Aunt's that she thought was too childish for her. Then it became my library bag as a child and is now my knitting bag. 

Pattern

Our radiator with an old window casts an interesting shadow.

Something I made

Photos of the Delaware coast

Something I Made

A long overdue scarf for a friend. Turns out I don't like how it looks so I'll take it apart soon and make something different. I guess it'll be another Winter before it get's to the person. 

Something I Made

Homemade bruschetta

Something Broken

My dresser crapped out on me a few months back. My great grandfather made it and I guess the glue stopped working. I still use it, but the top drawer is never shut because it would otherwise get stuck.

Something broken

Poor little basketball hoop. I hope someone gets you a new net before summer.

Something Broken

The broken heart of the tin man in Rob's White Stripes poster.

Something inspired by a song title

"I Turn My Camera On" - Spoon

Zip

I was driving on the Marrett Parkway and I was listening to my Ipod on shuffle and Elaine Strich was telling the story of her out of town tryouts for a revival of My Pal Joey and she kept mentioning the Marrett Parkway and I have been listening to this album for years and realized I was right where this story took place.

Something Inspired By A Song Title

Sheena Easton, Morning Train... for some reason Rob washing dishes made me think of this song, like he works all day and now he's washing dishes.
