Thanks, Amy!
Maybe I'll do that. Get an "underbed" bin and put it undr the crib with the diaper supplies in it that way it can go out of sight.
Zoe: Uh huh. River, honey? He's putting the hair away now. River: It'll still be there... waiting.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Bitches has been a sad, snurfling place of late with lots of illness and bad news.
So in an effort to recharge the positive vibrations I'm going to ask everybody to post two things:
1) Remembrance of a favorite spring day.
2) Something you're looking forward to in the next month.

I'll play. I could use some cheering up.
1) My 24th birthday, pregnant with Jake (about three months along). All of my closest friends came with Stephen and I to the first Mets exhibition game of the season, and it was a gorgeous, mild spring day. There were hot dogs and popcorn, and later there was cake. Perfect.
2) My birthday! (April 6) Which will come directly after, pleasegodpleasegod, turning in the book that's overdue, so I can celebrate properly. And with lots of cake.
Much sparkly all-encompassing ~ma to everyone who's been having a crappy day/week/month. I've been lurkoliscious lately, but I know Bad Things have been happening to people who only deserve Good Things.

Mostly lurking...
Can't think of a good Spring day. Nothing's popping into my head. Gonna have to think for a bit.
ION, I MUST have this pattern so I can make it for every baby I know: [link]

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
A great spring day--I remember walking from 16th down 6th avenue in NYC when I lived there on a gorgeous day. I wandered in and out of stores and got a sandwich in a deli. There was every kind of person on the street and everyone was in a "first Spring day" bouncy mood. On the way back up, I bought a book from a street vendor and came home and moved some pillows out the fire escape and sat out there and read and watched folks walking along 16th.
Looking forward to--going up to San Luis Obispo to visit family and ride horses and sit by a fireplace.

Trust my rage
Well, the second one's easy - I'm looking forward to visiting my brother and his wife over Easter. Ellie and I are going to surprise my parents, who will also be visiting. It will be a chance to see most of my dada's side of the family before we leave.
As for a spring day, I'm not too sure. However, it's been over 80 here the last few days and my morning and evening walks keep reminding me so much of last year late spring/early summer. I was near the end of my pregnancy and feeling it, but I was exicted and it was so beautiful outside. We have tons of great songbirds here and the flowers are gorgeous.

David, this will cheer you up: I got my hair cut this weekend.
1) Remembrance of a favorite spring day.
Walking in the woods in New Zealand. Bliss.
2) Something you're looking forward to in the next month.
SPRING BREAK OMG.

Frail my heart apart and play me a little Shady Grove
I hope vw and Trudy get to feeling better. At least enough to get them to work. I would probably fret about missing too much also. I just wish you could get well guilt-free.
Remembrance of a favorite spring day:
I love spring, so there are many. But there was one early spring day from which my springlove sprang. My sister and I were enamored of spring flowers and loved to pick them. One day we picked more than we should have, and instead of scolding us, Mom told us to divide them into bouquets and wrap each in damp paper towels. Then she took us around to the homes of elderly ladies from our church. We laid a bouquet on the doorstep, rang the bell, and ran back to car. Our mom would speed off before they could see who had brought the posies. We did that until we ran out of bouquets.
It was something Mom had done on May Day when she was a girl. Mary and I continued to do secret bouquets for a couple of years after that, just one or two for ladies who lived in walking distance.
Something you're looking forward to in the next month:
Getting my taxes done so that I'll know if I have enough funds to attend the F2F.
Good idea, Hec! It's been very Mondayish here too. Had to talk a colleague in off the ledge (not literally). A happy memory is welcome.
The toxic boss link has been sent to my umfriend in honor of the narcissist she works for.
