The only reason I mention it is that when I woke up this morning -- on my birthday of all days -- I felt as if I'd also eaten my pillow, without anything to drink to wash it down. You know the feeling? All yukky, bloated, stay-in-bed-and-hide-under-the-covers ugly. I can't blame it on PMS because -- well, surgery a few years ago eliminated that issue -- so it's just one of those extra "bonuses."
I HATE when that happens. But it's particularly yukky when your birthday starts that way. And I'm supposed to have special meals with dessert all day today (Cheesecake Factory for lunch and PF Chang tonight).
You know what else that means, don't you? When you wake up feeling ICKYickyicky (but you're not sick)?? Yes, you're right: there's NOTHING in your closet that you want to wear, and you only want to wear black. And I don't want anything to touch me -- not a smidgeon of fabric, elastic, frou-frou, sleeves, collar, belt ... the list is endless. Oh, yeah .. and because I broke my little toe at the wedding rehearsal Friday night, I can't wear any shoes.
I explain all of that to put you in the right frame of mind (insert wicked smile) to use today's word art to take care of scrapping those photos that make you look as if you feel the way I've described, even if you don't. And you know who you are!!!!!
I'd LOVE to see your layouts -- as always!
By the way, I'm only mildly "depressed" -- but I am in one of those frames of mind that Judith Viorst describes in her delightful book, Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good Very Bad Day. Meaning, I'm empathetic with Alexander: I don't want to wear my railroad pajamas, and I think I'll move to Australia.
Actually, I'm not despressed at all. I just wanted to vent a bit. :) Thanks for listening.
I still think I might move to Australia.
Blessings!Melanie

Talkin' to myself and feelin' old,
Sometimes I'd like to quit,
Nothing ever seems to fit,
Hangin' around Nothing to do but frown, Rainy Days and Mondays always get me down.
