Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair...

Being home for about 24 hours and getting right back on a plane made me realize I need more time out here to appreciate home again.  It's too hot back East anyway. And my memories are almost as good as the real thing.  I think that's why I only miss the feeling of New York...not actual places.  Those feelings, of family and good friends, will be with me always.  I took them back with me on the plane.

When I got home, I made this:

The ugliest bouquet, but it's my bouquet.

 I'm realizing that lots of things are ugly.  I just have to make them pretty again.
