Feeling Good

'Birds flying high You know how I feel
Sun in the sky You know how I feel
Reeds drifting on by You know how I feel
Its a new dawn it's a new day its a new life For me
And I'm feeling good'


It's times like this that I want to post about the things i'm feeling.
Cause some mornings and only in the morning I think of old things, things that make me sad. That remind me of how much i've changed. Of everything i've been through. About the honesty of the things that happened and how I felt about them at the time. About the cancer, the hitting, the belief in god. And then it turns afternoon and it all calms. My mind says its time for peace and all the anger, depression, mixed emotions they all go back into the shadows of the day and sleep. They wait til it's there turn again. And the more I think about it the less I feel I can say these things out loud. Or through the keys of my laptop. Because then you will see that i'm still as fucked up as before. I just don't beat my soul up about it as much anymore. And it makes me wonder if that's why I prefer the night to the day. For the night is nothing but shadow and they have to stay there til the light provides them with the strength they need to attack me again. Is this also why I don't dream, why I only dream of blackness and night. Throwing the lights out to avoid their plight against me? Well isn't this deep. Nope not really. This is my emo rant for the year.

Yarn porn.


Makes me a happy Nata.
Yarn porn is basically just beautiful photos of crocheted of knitted items. And even photos of colorful glossy gorg yarns just lined up ready for the taking.

I feel I need to make a ripple blanket.
Something bright and colorful and sweet and all mine. Unless I feel like giving it away at the end. Which I hope I don't. I made four blankets last year alone. Three were baby blankets and one was a queen sized granny stripe blanket.

Cold weather is perfect for crocheting and drinking hot tea. I've done nothing but drink hot tea every morning this past few days well reading a book and just enjoying the crispness of the cold and the bite of the heat coming off my cup.

There's something extra amazing about holding a hot cup of tea with both hands when you're cold. It does bring up the fact that its about time to start wearing hand warmers and arm warmers. Maybe just maybe its time to make a new set of arm warmers as well. Oh the ideas that keep coming to mind.

I can't wait to get home and be a happy yarn giddy girl again. And I need to go get some yarn to start that blanket with because I don't think I have enough right now. Maybe five new colors would do. Just what colors i'm not sure.

I hope you have enjoyed this yarn porn as much as I have.

Everything I do...

'Reminds me of you'

I need art.
Color, shading.
Cross hatching.
Blue, green, gold, purple, red, maroon
Orange! Yellows!

Maybe its time to start sketching again.
Or to try my hand at painting.
Designing something cool, simple, sweet.

Time to write something dark, deep, about me.
Rip feelings from soul and turn them into phrases and words.
To sing at the top of my lungs til the air has all gone.

To day dream of magic and balloons
and flying through cotton candy covered fields of imagination.

Maybe its time to write comics again.
To crochet over sized blankets of fluffy colorfulness.
Its time for art.

Scream Me Something Beautiful

It has been awhile since i've done a music blog. So here are some songs and videos I enjoy a lot.


Natalie Marie and 1cc -The Spill Canvas
This is the song that started me on this band. It was suggested by a friend in a chat once and ever since I enjoy their music often.


Glimpses - Alexander Ebert
Well looking for videos of ImaRobot I ran across this. I believe he is a member of the band and this is one of his solo songs. I think its beautiful and enchanting.


With a Little Help From My Friends - Joe Cocker
A-mazing. The power and soul he puts into singing this is great. I love it.


Bohemian Rhapsody - The Muppets
Come on how can you not smile well watching this?
