Please be safe out there....

Even though, TJ and I went out in the storm, we only stayed out for 10 mins or so...I just found out that a woman in Toronto was killed from flying debris =[

cold and stormy day!

Hi peeps, Happy Manic Monday! Work was nutzo and I still have work that I brought home with me =[ Wah! Sooooooo lazy! All I want to do right now is snuggle in bed and watch some movies....Peeps at work were a buzz about Hurricane Sandy..in Toronto we haven't had the worst of it yet but it's like everyone was getting ready for armageddon! It's rainy,windy, and oh so cold...the hubby and I needed to go outside to move our car and it seemed like we were the only crazy ones outside! Although I did see a couple walking their 2 dogs! Because of the wind it almost seems pointless using an umbrella unless you got a really good umbrella and strong hands to hold it down.TJ and I used our ponchos lol and I wore a winter jacket and I was still cold. Before the chaos, I took some photos of the tree facing our Juliette windows...I wonder how it will look tomorrow...we shall see...in the mean time here are some photos of the calm before the storm and TJ and I out in the storm lol Hope everyone is safe and keeping warm, Carezza

Happy Sunday Peeps =] It's been a gloomy and rainy kind of weekend...I felt soooooo lazy and procrastinated the days away lol...I thought I would catch up on work but chose to do some arts and crafts and also spent some QT with the hubby...been thinking alot about christmas and what to do for gifts...this year I really want to make meaningful, functional and cute prezzies this year....I've been surfing the net looking for inspiration and have been going to: www.honestlywtf.com www.tumblr.com (#diy) www.lemonjitters.com www.creaturecomfortsblog.com these websites/blogs definitely get props from me...they are so CREATIVE and oh so INSPIRING! I've started my list of gift ideas and plan on sharing them for sure =] I've also been meaning to post about my experience as one of the climbers for the UNITED WAY CN tower climb...I went with some friends and had such an amazing time. The CN tower has 144 flights of stairs so it was one heck of a climb for someone who hasn't worked out in ages....will be leaving our photo souvenir :) no training but all heart! toodles for now =] Carezza

back to the grind....

Happy Tuesday Peeps! It's been a while again! Lately, I've been so exhausted...all of sunday was spent recuperating! I slept a lot...After I came home from bowling, I slept for hours..It's been 2 weeks already since Tj and I came back from our trip to Boston and Cape Cod and we are missing these place already...the next few posts will be some photos of Cape Cod taken by my Hello Kitty 35 mm fisheye lomo cam. I still haven't gotten around to organizing my photos from our trip. uugggghhh so much on my to do lists...I had lots of birthdays in September and October...will be posting the photos of some of the cards I made....time to sleep! lol it's 230 am...way past my bedtime.. Toodles for now, Carezza

T & C in Beantown....

TGIF lovelies!!! It's been a long whiles....It's been crazy busy...lol plus I was feeling lazy...all I wanted to do was catch up on my tv shows online...last week we were busy cleaning and packing for our one year anniversary trip to Boston.....It was Tj and I's first time to visit Boston...we had such an amazing and awesome time that we extended our trip an extra day and now we arrived in Cape Cod yesterday...the whole trip is very reminiscent of all the places we've been together =] I became a total shutterbug in Boston and Cape Cod....every shot was photo worthy to me...I will be posting photos after looking through the 1000s of photos I took...I used my I-phone 4, HK lomo, and my Nikon DS 80 with 18-55 mm lens.... until next time, Carezza
