to blog or not to blog...

to blog or not to blog, that was question for me today. Its Monday which is my housework and drudgery day, plus I am battling a cold, so I was already feeling put upon and abused so did not feel like facing the computer too. You might think by the number of successful posts that I have this all figured out, but you would be wrong. I come each time to the computer ready to spend ages trying to get the picture and the font and the layout the way I want it. Each time I am as surprised as I was the first time when it actually comes out more or less like I planned. Today I decided to face it because in a fit of caffeine fueled energy and optimism I put it on my "to Do" list for the day, and since it was on the list, I figured I might as well do it. Never mind that I was the one who made the list and ought to feel entitled to amend it...I never do for some strange reason, a topic to explore more fully on another day.

For today lets look at Key West in a jar. On one of the afternoons on Key West we spent a little while beach combing and the picture above is the result. It looks totally staged and store bought, but I promise there is not a thing in that jar other than the sand on the bottom that did not come from our gleanings from that afternoon on the beach. I love it! What a way to remember our time there and like all the best souvenirs, it was absolutely free!
