currently floating around the house to the angelic sounds of dolores and the cranberries...

you will be sorely missed by many who, like me, sought out your voice, when the mood and the time needed your voice. we cared.

have a fun weekend!

you made it to the weekend! what are you up to, anything fun?

i'll be filling up on italian food here (a classic restaurant, so good!), getting in a couple of longer runs and planning a summer road trip. i hope that your weekend is everything you want it to be!

and it's friday saturday, so some fun finds from around the world wide web:

this relief stone cabinet is just wow.

man oh man, what he does with cardboard is stunning.

chiara colombini

anglo-italian interior designer chiara colombini is offering up some select contemporary design pieces that are stunningly original. see a few of my current favorites below. they are not for the faint of pocketbook. but if you are in the market for that one wow piece, yeah, she has that...

seems like january has begun chock full of positive energy. (i love that!) i have high hopes, lofty goals and managing the flow of all of that is something i am already trying to pace. i'm excite though, for this new year. it feels like it's going to be fantastic, don't you think?!

some things i'm looking forward to this weekend...i just signed up for a new writing course (just for fun!) which begins next week, i'm pampering myself tomorrow (hair cut and color) and hoping that it's not too cold to walk here (one of my favorite places to escape to locally and i always see deer!). in between that you'll find me trying to find a pub with a fireplace, sipping red wine and slowwwwwwwing way down. i hope that your weekend is everything that you hope it to be!

and it's friday saturday, so some fun finds from around the world wide web:

a pretty one piece to put away until next summer.

this is pretty too.

might need a pair of these for next summer.

speaking of the beach, if i had a beach house, this might be my dining room chandelier.

just bought oh joy's mulit-stripe phone case, hey gotta support the team!

gosh, her paintings.

serious flower power.

fun studs.

this clutch every day of the year.

a wow chair.

i love putting artwork in unexpected places,
like this. and this.

loving this woven headbaord (reminds me of those potholders you'd make as a kid?!).

speaking of woven loving.

etsy love.

i'm with her, and why she sounded so presidential.

cool stools.

these plaid leggings.

a pretty flush ceiling light.

pillow love.

leather perfection.

thoughts this new year.

needing a jumpstart this cold january morning. dancing around the house to new justin timberlake, so good!

winter lately

happy weekend, how was your week? we are recovering from a pretty epic snowstorm in new england, big moon, extreme high tides, the perfect storm really. a couple of days before the storm hit, i ventured out to take a few photographs, of winter lately, it was the very cold calm before the storm...

(images: mine)

i hope you are staying warm and finding ways to take in the long winter. sometimes you have to just stare at it straight in the face. enjoy!

happy happy new year!!

hey! a fresh year is upon us, and so what are you thinking...feeling...hoping for?

(via)

i have had amazing opportunities this year. i started a new job somewhere dear to me, i have met new friends, co-workers, i moved to the city, alot of adjustments, changes & excitement with all of that. i've developed a love/hate relationship with the T, i pushed myself in 2017, i wanted to. i really enjoyed 2017, even though, to me, it flew by!

and so a fresh new year is here, how will you build your new beginning? i'd love to hear! here are some goals (some lofty, some not) that i have for the new year, i'm just putting them out there...

i want to adopt a dog.

i would like to volunteer my time.

i want to buy a vintage car.

i want to paint more.

i want to smile more.

i want to plan a long road trip with my adopted dog :).

i want to listen to more live music.

i want to take a vacation to somewhere i've never been with my son.

i would like to try to make one new recipe a week.

i want to be a patron, here.

i want to buy a house.

i am seriously going to bring my blue tooth speaker on the T with me one day, turn the music up loud, and see if anyone will dance with me on the way to work. ha!

happy new year!
