Old Man Winter...

Can go back to bed any day now...

I'm still here... just lots and lots going on. I've got lots to say and there are days when I think "ohhhhh I need to blog that" but for some reason (likely the 9th month of snow) I just don't have the umph to give a damn to take the time to put it all down. I know. I know. I should make a better effort. I think I'm just trying to work through some things first. Which is my cop out way of saying I'm just pushing it all down and not dealing with anything at the moment... and we all know where that leads to...

Today's horoscope pretty much tells me it's not necessarily time to kick my ass in gear and pretty much tells how I'm feeling..."Are you hesitating, TARA ANN? Do you feel caught between the desire to participate fully in the world and the equally strong desire to remain in your dream world, even at the risk of feeling a little out of it? Who says that these two worlds are not compatible? If you look closely, TARA ANN, you will see that you do not need to choose one over the other."

In the meantime... I snapped the above photo on my way over to the baby shower in February (or was that the first part of March... it all blurs together anymore). By my best count there's about 21 swans in the picture. There were easily half a dozen more off of both sides of the frame. I've never seen so many swans in one place. Let alone hunkered down against a blanket of white snow. It was pretty amazing. Trust me, the picture doesn't do it justice.




***ETA*** I thought blogger ate this post the other night... turns out I'm so completely out of it lately that I dated it for the wrong month and it published it back in the March stuff... well duh, no wonder I couldn't see it... sorry to those in the RSS feed...
