I know I've been a bad blog girl. I don't post. I don't visit. I don't even call you on the phone or bake you brownies. I'm not going to attempt to make excuses.
Well, yes I am.
You see, the luck of the Irish has smiled upon me. I got a new job! My one and only New Year's Resolution was to find a new job this year (well, that and lose my bubble butt). The job search turned into a bit of a full-time job in itself.
I found out about new job while I was in Colorado and will be at old job until I start new job on April 5. And in the midst of everything I took on a freelance job last month. So there is a whole lot of job in my life right now. But the good news is, everything's starting to come up roses. Roses and pansies. Because after all the snow (finally) melted last week, the pansies I planted in September started blooming! With new buds and all. I took these pictures on Sunday after the big storm:
It's like they were cryogenically preserved under all that snow or something.
I hope everything is rosy in your neck of the world. Today in NYC the sun is shining and the mercury is climbing. Life is good.

Yahoo... I'm glad the luck of the Irish bless your door! Congrats on the job and you bubble butt! Are you able to share about the new job? xo
Would love to hear about the new job? Does this mean you are selling your shore house to me? :)
I have a feeling you found out about your new job, when you were in CO.
I love those pansies. Mine are coming out slowly. They are one of my favorites! Yours are very pretty.
So happy to hear of your new job and very happy to hear that you are still enjoying Gentlmen Bunny. Thanks my dear for your encouraging comment on my most recent post. It was meant to lift up others in the battle of the bulge and you and so many others comments have blessed my lil socks off. Thanks.
Have a wonderful day,
