New Town / New Yarn Store / New Blanket

March 28, 2015

After much rumination, using Pinterest, and two of my fav blogs, Attic24 and Coco Rose Diaries, I've decided to crochet a:  hexagon shaped, 9 - 11 colors, patchwork blanket. 

Wow! What a selection! I chose 9 colors: white, baby blue, light pink, pink, mint, yellow, violet, multi-colored: white/pink/blue, and yellow/mint/white

I'll show you when it's done!  :)

Peek into my future

March 21, 2015

It's Saturday morning! That means, for the folks I currently live with, it's time to refill the pill containers for the upcoming week with medicine and supplements.

This is my weekly motivation to be disciplined with my health, body, mind and soul.

2. Say goodbye to the parents

3. Say goodbye to the school

4. Say goodbye to the staff

5. Say goodbye to friends

6. Say goodbye to Japan

Secret Garden Part II

March 15, 2015

Last year in March I accidentally stumbled upon a gorgeous, secret magnolia garden at the Buddhist temple around the corner from my apaato. I made it a point to revisit this year to see the amazing magnolia tree in bloom.

This time I found a blooming plum tree.
