Love – Despite the fact that winter is lingering, parts of nature are sticking to their schedules, and my city is a-bloom; magnolia trees in the west end, cherry blossoms all over the downtown, tulips on my balcony.
Love – That I’ve been able to go back to a cherished routine; coming home from work, opening the balcony doors wide, and watching the furkids go out for a sniff and a stretch. I’m determined to make our balcony even more cat friendly this year, and am eying seating for future sun naps.
Love – That I’ve been able to introduce one of my favourite bloggers to two of my favourite Mary Stewart books. Yes, I get my sense of accomplishment where I can.
Love – That it’s getting nice enough out there for me to want to take my bike out. I see more frequent loops round the seawall in my future. Since it gets me all the way round Science World and to Granville Island, I may also have some panniers in my future too.
Love – Street art. Whether it be chalk-art, signage, stickers or something more permanent. so I really love this twist on street art…
Love – The dog park next to my old elementary school. My sister introduced me to it when we took her girl Emma for a walk recently, and I’ve been tempted to go back ‘just to watch’, more than once. So many dogs! How sad is it that I want more Emma time just so we can go to the park?
So… what’s on your list today?

Love – the extra exercise i get walking to and from the light rail station since my car is out of commission.
Love – my new 12 cup coffee maker from Gevalia.
Love – having time to read on the train in the morning and at night.
i think that’s it for now.

Love that I’m warm. It’s quiet. I’ve got emails like air, coming in and going out. Loving the meal last night and possibility of poetry tonight.
