Spring, Spring, Spring!


Sring is here and I am loving it! I honestly never thought that Texas could look so beautiful but it does. As the chill of winter wind falls away the trees begin to bloom and it looks like a huge calibration of sorts. Oh it is wonderful. When the wind blows now it’s not the kind of wind that makes you pull your coat closer but the kind that makes you throw your arms out and welcome it with a smile. Or at least that is how I feel about it. The other day my roomies and I went out to take pictures and we had so much fun. We went to several different locations and took over 200 pictures! It was great fun to say the least and I was able to spend a great deal of time out of doors. Oh how lovely it was to walk in the wind and see nature for more than a moment as I pass by. We went to a nature preserve to take some pictures and that was just indescribable. I really miss being able to take those long walks that I had grown so fond of back home where I would troll up on the mountains and sit and just listen to the creek and the trees in the wind. This was a small taste of that but a little is better than none, right? Well here are some pictures from the event and hopefully in the coming days I will be able to post more…ENJOY

I don't think so

Your Dominant Intelligence is Spatial Intelligence

You've got a good sense of space and how the world around you looks.
You can close your eyes and "see" images. You have innate artistic talent.
An eye for color and shapes, you're also a natural designer.
Since you think in pictures, visual aids and demonstartions help you learn best.

You would make a good navigator, sculptor, visual artist, inventor, architect, interior designer, or engineer.


So I don't think hardly any of this applies to me at all :(

International Women’s Day

Today is the first of march and that means that in eight days it will be the “International Women’s Day”. Many of you might be scratching you heads at this point and wondering…what is this “international Women’s day” and why have I not heard of it? There is a very simple answer to that one, if you have not lived in Russia you would not know it was a holiday. It is sort of like the Russian Valentines day and they all would like to think that it is “international” but…I won’t say any more :)
