I was also unaware of "The Dress" but thanks to the article I find it very interesting. In Psych 101 the part I really liked was on perception. I see the dress as dark gray and blue, so not quite to the black and blue side. It is beautiful today. Sunny and into the 20s. Also the winter storm...

Remembering "The Sound of Music," these are a few of my favorite things in a sunny package to cheer us in this so long winter. Credits: -papers, word art, bird notion: Little Birdie Told Me V by Dido Designs -paint, string: Oscraps Collab Vibrant Autumn fonts: Sybil Green, Jane...

QOTD: Flowers are good, longer days are super, but for me the best is the spring migration of birds. We always look forward to the arrival of Common Grackles as a sign spring is coming. This year I don't know when they might show up. In warmer years they'd already be here but not with this...

Happy Anniversary, Trudy! I know you'll have a lovely dinner out. Hope it clears up. Very nice template for the avatars. They look great as is, but yours looks swell with a little added. Sharon, hope you do get in a nap. The new products and all the classes sound really busy so you probably...

Lots of upbeat posts today to go with Chris's sunny images. Thanks for them all! I had a nice day. We went to a luncheon with assigned seats. I wound up next to a lady who is married to my 2nd cousin. I last spoke with her about 20 years ago. I think we'll get together in some manner. Then my...

I am just so tired of the cold! And while our snowfall hasn't been that bad, it is all still out there creating tunnels of roads and driveways. Today though we might even reach 22F. Hope so as we're taking my sister to an eye exam and shopping. But we'll be back to negative temps in a couple...

We only spent a little time but did see some fun birds like the turkey. Surprising to see so little snow back then! Credits: -background, bird, frame, leaves, list card, gem: At Last by Vicki Stegall -paints (one as mask), flowers,heart: Love Me Two Times by Tracy Martin Designs fonts...

I woke up this morning feeling really good and well rested. The down side was realizing it was unusual these days. It is still warm(ish) and the house so much more comfortable. No new snow for now but temps will fall tonight. Anyone else watching Oscars tonight? I don't see the movies when new...

We warmed up almost to freezing but it is snowing and snowing. Had the computer genealogy meeting across town this morning and I'm glad DH came & did the driving. I couldn't see his white knuckles going as he had his gloves on. Even the freeways were snow covered. We did have people there and...

It's just too freaking cold! I've been physically and mentally hiding out. Wednesday I had a dental implant and it is OK, but still my face is a little puffy and sore. I have a meeting tomorrow (hopefully won't be cancelled) and need to get a talk ready but would rather go in a warmer room and...

For one day our weather was fine, high maybe 20, no new snow, even brief sun. Sister needed to mail some things but can't get to her mailbox, so we went and got several day's worth out and took her stuff and mailed at PO. Did a little cleanup of her walk and so on. Tomorrow it snows again and...
