A lonely winter morning

Exactly one year ago I was walking through the streets of Philadelphia.
Literally.
It was cold, it was snowing, it was all so very new, and I loved it.
If I go back in time, and look at the date (and in my diary) I would know that I would have actually been at someone's home attending a Pampered Chef Party. I was still jet lagged and it was funny just sitting around and listening to everything. I was not really there yet...my head and body thought I was nuts being awake cooking something and all. It was a Sunday evening. And yes, I remember it was snowing. Beautifully.
Though, if it really was Monday...and not Jan. 18, I would have been walking through Philadelphia. :)

Can't believe it's now really one year...time sure flies.
I'm listening to my music on iTunes and guess what song's just playing?!
Goodbye Philadelphia by Peter Cincotti. *obvioulsy why I write about the city*
I love this song. A. Lot.
Some would say it's rather a sad one, and it maybe is...but it's also quite inspirational.
So, there you go...it's my Monday evening inspiration!!!!




I never thought I would like Philly. Really. But I did. It will never ever top my favorite city in the whole wide world, but it's still a place I would love to return to again, and again. Maybe even this April. Haven't fully decided yet. I'm sure my friend would slap me for writing this but I can't decide. I should. Soon. I think this is one of those many negative things a born Gemini has to live with...haha!!!! I simply can't make up my mind which has made my life not a very easy one sometimes. ;-)

So, let's hope I do decide soon. Plane tickets are cheaper than ever before. And, well, as much as I would love to visit family and friends in southern California, I think this spring I'm going to pass and try something new. Does this make me a bad person?

Wheresoever you go, go with all your heart.

Have a brilliant day/night!

One more day, and I can enjoy my weekend. ;-) Yay!!!!
Plans?! None. Just sleep in every day, and maybe go shopping (ha, I wish), and well...sleep...oh I wrote that already...and well, bake (hopefully), and sleep!

xoxo

Maybe being a gemini does explain my seriously problem with making decisions, even little ones. So no, you're not a bad person because I'm really bad at it too. I wish I could visit Philly, or really anywhere along the eastern US. Or Europe. Oh, in my mind I travel lots.
