What's that I see? Is that spring?

I am bundles up, sitting on my front door step, listening to the morning take shape around me. Robins are singing their hearts out, and I am pretty sure the lyrics are "It's about flippin' time, Spring! Now get on with your bad self!" I am enjoying the flowers in my front beds, the sun rising in the sky, and the crisp chill in the air. I am dreaming of winning the lotto and having a small place of my own to fill with misfit animals and non-misfit garden beds.

Work is work. Up and down. I can feel myself getting vacation fever. Yesertday- the first full beautiful day we have had- had me craving to hit the road and never come back. I truely have a severe case of the 'Get-me-outta-heres" that I WILL need to remedy soon. Dad.

'nuff said.

I will toodle into REI with Eli today for a new pair of hiking boots, and take care of Ruths cats, since she fell down yesterday and split her forehead wide open. I could see bone. It was big and gross and deffinately 'ride to the ER' worthy. Five stitches for her. Not the way she was planning to spend her easter, but it could have been a broken bone instead of broken skin, so I consider it a stroke of love from the Gods.

Other than that, not much to tell. I have had 2 small, quick, and dirty logo design jobs, with 2 more on the burner, which I will start this week. Eli has been enjoying the new found freedom money brings. He's been gone, helping friends and visiting his sisiter for the last week. I feel a little abandonded, but like I told my parents; if I think that after a year and a half of him being 100% dependant on others he isn't gonna go crazy for the next few months, I'm an idiot.

I'd post a picture, but I want to sit her for a bit more, then I will need to wander over to Ruth's and check in on her. Til then, I will sip my coffee and be still a while yet this lovely spring morning.
