A Very Special Day

Oh my Goodness, I could say a million words about how Dr Seuss has changed 

my soul. Without a doubt he has help point me in the direction I have headed. 

He was a pioneer and I would eat green eggs and ham with him in a house with a 

mouse any day! Happy Birthday to him!

The Everywhere Project

Have you seen the everywhere project pop up yet? It has just begun but it is very 

interesting. The Everywhere Project is a collaborative design project that pays tribute 

to the classic folk song “I’ve Been Everywhere”. It is curated by Adrian Walsh, 

a designer and illustrator based out of Southern California.

It looks as though they plan on featuring cities from just about... everywhere.

Maddie the Agile Coon Hound...

This is Maddie the Coon Hound. I stumbled upon this awesome site this morning 

entitled, "Maddie on Things" and it made my day. How adorable is this hound and 

her adventuresome little spirit. You should check out the site, because Maddie gets 

on some pretty crazy things... Jungle Gyms, Fence Posts, Mail boxes, all with the 

stunning grace of a coon hound. Just had to share... hope it makes you smile. 

Drown. A Poem.

I found this on Pinterest this morning and I loved it. I just had to share it. 

It paints such a beautiful/tragic picture of the sea... 

I just started reading my first Hemingway. I wanted something with a little romance 

so my dad recommended 'For Whom the Bell Tolls' I am at the very beginning 

and am excited to get into the meat of it, because I know he to is a painter of words.

lot to read through today, but I hope they make you laugh, because they are quite clever.

Adorable Valentine's Day Prints

Love these Valentine's Day Prints from the Big Harumph. Especially that long one,

I like the idea of an 'odd' shaped print, you don't often see prints that size do you?

I really dig it.

Celebrate!

Well Folks... After about 24 days of working Dave and I are taking 2 days OFF 

and heading to our Oasis on the Eastern Shore to celebrate Valentine's Day! Our 

Spirits need the reviving and I am so looking forward to this. Is anyone else planning 

on celebrating valentines day this weekend?

What are your plans?

What makes you feel Sexy?

In Honor of Valentine's Day. I am turning up the heat here at Meant for a Moment 

and I am asking... What makes you feel sexy? I feel like it is important for a woman 

to feel sexy for herself, not jus for her man. So if you were thinking on what made 

you feel sexy and confident (because the words are synonymous) what would it be? 

Would it be red pumps and glossy lips or tousled hair and a flirty smile? Are you the 

most confident in jeans climbing a mountain beaded in sweat or longing in a teeshirt 

reading your favorite book. Sexy should be a happy place. So where do you find 

your sexy place?
