Life is... Just Cold Right Now!
I'm sitting here in the Midwest, freezing my... toes off. If this is an indication of winter to come, I've gotta come up with something warmer to wear. Like an indoor snowsuit. As long as I have my hands free, that'll be good. We're supposed to get snow that sticks next week. The shoveling kind. I can't wait (she says sarcastically.) Don't get me wrong, I love the snow, the trees and bushes and ground covered with pure white. The way it insulates sound and muffles everything...the crazy neighbors tend to stay indoors, no adolescent screaming and Harley's revving. As long as I can stay indoors too and look out my windows at it (while wearing that indoor snowsuit.) Fat chance. Time to find the ice scrapers and snow shovels. But then again, I live in Chicago, it's December. What else should I expect?
As promised, here is another Teesha Moore inspired page from my journal. Honoring... ice cream! Makes me cold just thinking about it. I don't eat ice cream in winter. I usually switch to a bimonthly coffee drink. Like a peppermint Mocha from Starbucks. Mmmmmmm. Those are good. I feel a coffee inspired page coming on....

I love Teesha's style. Your page came out great. You are doing a great job on these. This one is definitely my favorite of yours.
ReplyDeleteLove it Lisa! I'd like it too, if you kept your cold weather THERE ... but it looks like its comin here too! yuck.
ReplyDeleteYeah, it would be nice just to stay inside and hibernate - that can be the plan for the next 4 months. :)

Now this is a really cool page!! I love it! Great lettering! Gotta love Schulz!
ReplyDeleteThis is perfect for a cold day's piece of art. I don't eat ice cream unless its at least 90 degrees out (which now that we are in the desert happens to be a lot in the summer). I've switched from iced tea to hot tea and decaf coffee now as we've been hovering around 50 degrees during the day. Went below freezing the other night. Winter has arrived. I laugh at your snowsuit idea. I wear a sweater in the house now but when we lived in Illinois and Minnesota it was long underwear and a sweater added to my normal attire. Brrr, I don't miss that kind of cold at all! I can really identify with your ice cream lady.
ReplyDeleteIt's cute! I hope my ice cream cone doesn't smile at me or wink at me! Hehe! :-) I like the different things along the border too. Cute!!
ReplyDeleteHi Lisa! Love your page!! You are freezing your tush off and I am sweating mine!!! It's still in the high 80s low 90s in the Florida Keys!!!
ReplyDeletethis is an enchanting journal page. just love it and the saying, can i snitch the saying too.
ReplyDeletei think i will write it down in my journal or better yet a postcard and stick on my mirror to see every day. i love all the different borders around your ice cream. like the frosty the snowman that comes to life. your cone have a name?
Mmmmmmmmm! This ice cream looks as good as your cupcake!!! Mmmmmmmmmm!!!
ReplyDeletehaha - Great imagery. I love the ice cream cone picture...it works beautifully together. You're so funny - first, the cupcake - now, Icr cream - a woman after my own heart.

I love it! I love Zetti style!
ReplyDeleteI am originally from North Dakota and believe it or not, North Dakota eats more ice cream per capita than any other state! It's cold up there too. lol Heard they had 16 Below in Grand Forks this week. I live in Ohio and was thinking of visiting my mom in January. If she wasn't going to have surgery, I would seriously re-think waiting until Summer. Last time I was there it was flooding this past spring! LOL
