what do i do? well, read a lot, sew a bit, make lists of what to do when fit again and a lot of fooling around with the laptop. a click or two on ebay, a few more on etsy, dick blick and joggles, hotmail, flickr and the all-absorbing pinterest. i am reminded of marcela's post last friday.
so here is a medley of the beauty i've come across while fictiously being out there in the world.
first of all, a couple of quotes:
"If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?
alice in wonderland
"The miracle is this: the more we share, the more we have."
Leonard Nimoy

o sweet spontaneous
earth how often have
the
doting
fingers of
prurient philosophers pinched
and
poked thee,
has the naughty thumb
of science prodded
thy beauty.
how
often have religions taken
thee upon their scraggy knees
squeezing and
buffeting thee that thou mightest conceive
gods
(but
true
to the incomparable
couch of death thy
rhythmic
lover
thou answerest
them only with
spring)
e.e. cummings

y claro que son things that blew me away a mi tambien :) hermosas imagenes. un beso grande connie!
imposible no enamorarse Connie! bellezas todas!
(jaja me dio risa el comentario de Eskita, pura bilingüidad!)
pusha oh, hay que cuidarse la espaldita y apretar la guata cuando hacemos fuerza, eso ayuda mucho.
mi espalda está crónicamente lesionada con el jardín pero ya me acostumbré y la llevo así tal cual pa todos lados... en fin (hay que mirar el carnet, jaja!!)
Al menos nos has deleitado con harta inspiración... y gracias por agregar la foto de la kote (que a mi parecer es como si estuviese encerrada, aplastada, algo así...)
bueno, te dejo un abrazote y deseos para tu pronta recuperación.
besos
OUCHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!Qué feo, Connie!!! Mucho Advil y take it easy!! Some of those pictures gave me the creative itch, but I'm taking a break!! Que te mejores, my friend!!!
La espalda es una de mis partes que más me complica.... y dueeeele..... obviando lo malo.... lo bueno de estar en cama es lo productivo que se puede ser en las áreas para las que nunca se tiene tiempo, y la maravilla de internet se agradece en esos días.... un abrazo!
I'm SO sorry your back is not cooperating!!! Please take good care of yourself. I'm happy that you have a laptop - what eye candy! -and that you can do some sewing while recuperating. I'll be praying for you.
