Playing with Josh’s toys… again. Runner up photo: Train cars, taken when getting off the Mass Pike near Worcester.

I’ve had this cup ever since I was a little girl. I remember playing outside in the snow until I was freezing cold, going inside and getting a hot chocolate from my mother, and drinking it down until I could see the little koala’s head. Warm memories.

The sun was so brilliant, and deceiving… you wouldn’t have known it was only in the 30s outside. Brrr. Runner up photo: Couldn’t help but to snap this photo of the Worcester Sharks mascot and a little girl. So. Cute.

We only had a dusting of snow, not the 3+ inches they were predicting yesterday. It was just enough to be pretty but not disruptive, and it was mostly melted by lunchtime. I snapped this on my way into work. I have a bad habit of taking photos while driving. Shhhh.

I found this card tonight and had a little fun in Instagram with it. I feel like it’s sort of cheating, photography-wise, but I am tired today. Dealt with a sick toddler while working and feeling a bit under the weather myself today. Also, it’s nice to look at these flowers while it’s snowing outside.

The past two days have been about collages and diptychs on Shutter Sisters. I decided to do my twist on the left brain / right brain diptych and display a couple of keyboards I use often — the left for work, the right for play.

Got this in my fortune cookie today. I thought it was a great message.

Folded an origami crane to show my support and offer a prayer for the people hurting in Japan. You can add yours to this Flickr group: www.flickr.com/groups/1000cranesforjapan.
