forget Mr Darcy!

*gasp* who would ever say such a thing about the beloved Mr Darcy. 

I DID!

who wants Mr Darcy when you could have Mr Rochester or Captain Wentworth!! seriously... amazing!

Captain Wentworth from Persuasion

Mr Rochester from Jane Eyre

 

yep. you see my point. haha. nah, it's not like i'm swooning too much. I'm just so thankful Ash opened my eyes to the fact that there are other very great fictional men out there. Everyone always focuses on Darcy, but he's not alone. just sayin. 

so i was crafty today! i am determined to make a canvas with a quote on it. so today.. i painted the canvas.

it's hard to tell what it actually looks like. i painted it blue, green, yellow, and purple stripes (very bright variations of these colors. because obviously.. this is me we're talking about) but i thought it was pretty terrible. so i painted over the stripes with 3 layers of blue. so there's this really awesome hint of other colors. it's sweet. and i'm still debating about the quote to use. i've almost decided on:

Face trouble with courage

disappointment with cheerfulness, 

and triumph with humility.

-Thomas S Monson

because i feel like that just fits my life so perfectly. and everything i strive to do and be. i have seriously searched Pintrest for hours looking at quotes. and i have a page typed up. i'll make the final decision tomorrow and it will be perfect.

i also made another picture frame! i apologize that it's so hard to see! my comp kept whiting it out when i tried to take the picture. but it's pretty. and it's bordered with little hearts! it's cute. 

i also refilled some of my huge picture frame collage. using new pictures. the frame is pretty dang broken. but i know dad didn't mean to do it. and i'm too cheap atm to replace it. (mom, i'm sorry i haven't emailed pictures for your frame yet! i'm a terrible daughter! haha)

tonight Ash came over. with pizza. and a movie. and we had a movie night downstairs with carol. it was fun. 

random side note: my jaw hurts. a lot. i just yawned and it totally.. snapped. that feels like a more accurate term. stinkin TMJ. i need to wear my splint. but i'm laaaaazy. 

oo i went for my run this AM! and i booked it home cuz floppy was out by the road! scary!!!

tomorrow will be a great day! partially because my Jones Soda cap said it would. but mostly because i determine that it will be. i have a craft to finish. i have a craft idea to do. i'm going shopping with liz and ash. AND stake conference tonight! can you say party? i can! i'm excited for it all. 

alright. well. enough of this extremely random post. hope all is well. 

know that you are loved.
