Things I Love Thursday: March

by Ashe on March 31, 2010

Did March fly by for you too? Time is sliding through my fingers, and I can’t catch up with it.  I kind of forgot the last Thursday of the month was LAST weekend– so you get this a day early!

The magnitude of great love.  I feel so giddy and lucky to be officially back “together” with the Beau. Each day it thrills me more and more– the simplicity of it, the openness and honestly, the security and safety of it. It’s hard to be in a long distance relationship, but every day I feel more and more secure and firm in us. It’s not easy to be apart and know it may be years before we can be together daily…but it’s in our plans and talked about daily.  Love betwixt me and her fuzzy highness– her happiness to lay in the sunshine everyday, never taking for granted the days it is there.  Blissed out on a fuzzy rug in beams of brightness.

Lady Gaga in July! A mere two weeks after my birthday, I’ll be shipping out to the Beau where we will enjoy Ms. Gaga perform.  I’m ecstatic. What to wear?  “what matters is we are going to the show together. like Duran Duran, doesnt matter where we sit. of course if I can find a guard to bribe (prior to the show of course) I will do so.”

St. Patty’s Day revelry, oysters, champagne all day; shiny new baubles & bracelets; cupcake breaks (wedding cake! lemon raspberry! cookies and cream!); repair work on my walls finished! re-instating my office space; picking up new jeans, new shirts, new housewares; small reminders how loved I am & how many wonderful people I have in my life (aka my students bringing me Sprinkles cupcake mix!); Carmen Electra’s Aerobic Striptease!  (I just ordered discs 1-5 on SwapADVD–awesome!); Tarina Tarantino heart necklaces on Ideeli (my first time shopping with them) & bracelets from Sephora; fabulous dance nights at old haunts; befriending bartenders & caipirinhas.

Sparkly, shallow, and shiny this month– just how I like myself in Spring!

What about you, bijoux? I want to see your loves this month!

How lovely to hear you are back with your boyfriend! Where abouts does he live – is it very far away? I always seem to get myself into long distance love. Hard but special when yo see each other :O) xxx

Aww, thanks honey! He’s in Denver now (to my New Orleans) so it’s a bit tough at times… but we try to make sure to visit every 3 months and it helps that we’re so close anyhow….

Things I LOVE ~

the fact that the warm Weather has FINALLY arrived in WI,
hearing neighborhood dogs bark & the kids playing thru the open windows,
End of the season sales,
Having Great Friends and Family
& of course the fact that today is going to beThe Best Day Ever..

Ashe’ can you let me know if you like the Carmen tapes? I am considering getting them myself, but am a bit wary if they are worth it or not.
Thanks,
Rings90…

Oh, I LOVE the sound of the kids in the neighborhood–it’s always a great sign of the changing weather.

And I’ll definitely do a review of the Electra tapes– I’ve done the first one and it was a great booty buster along with making me laugh a lot (because the moves can be super silly).

Great list Ashe! I have the Carmen Electra set too – they’re so fun.

My loves include my hubby and our little four-legged babies. Also the ocean (and the knowledge that I’ll be heading to the beach in just a few weeks) and future possibilities. There’s a ton of things changing in my life right now. Instead of being afraid of the unknown, I’m making a conscious decision to try to embrace it and know that things will end up better in the end.

That’s super wonderful, honey!!! It’s so hard to get out of that mindset (I was in it while in Indiana), but sometimes you DO just need to embrace it and believe. Good luck with everything that will be going on, and enjoy your fun in the sun!

Thanks, sweetness! It was a lovely little development over Mardi Gras, when we decided to officially go at it again…

Let me know how you like Carmen Electra’s Aerobic Striptease – it seems like it’d be such a fun way to work out!
