Sunny Florida Anyone?!....No?! How about Rainy Massachusetts?!

     Are you Oooooing and Awwwwing at this photo like me this morning?! Silke {from the blog Metamorphosis} and her husband just got back from a cruise that included Key West Florida. I'd love to be in Key West Florida this morning....*sigh*...instead of here in Massachusetts with rain and ice mixed with rain!
    Hubby and I are feeling better than we did yesterday, as far as the colds and toothache are concerned. He has a bit of...*sorry*...Phlegm he's dealing with occasionally, and my toothache never returned! I didn't even use the toothache medicine he brought me either! But my joints, especially in my hands this morning, are a problem. They're all swollen and giving me a bit of bother. BUT it's not stopping me from crocheting!! LOL

     Right out of the bed this morning I grabbed by crochet hook and my new scarf...

     and got busy!! The movement of my hands when I'm crocheting helps with the pain sometimes....Go Figure! And Yep! It's a basic black scarf next!....I finished the red one!!! {In my Wuglyees shop I'm throwing the red and black hat in with the red scarf for a bargain too!!! Ha! Ha!}

     Hubby was even able to get these nice pictures of it this morning...while he was dodging the rain drops! :-]
   He also took some new photos of the pink and black scarf too.

     It's already in the shop HERE. It just needed some updated photos.

    What do you think?!
    Well obviously I'm not having as much fun here in rainy Massachusetts as Oprah and Curtis Stone are in sunny Australia...

    ...but I'm not quite as bad off as Coop either! Ha! Ha!

     Sometimes trying to be helpful can be kind of tricky! ^_^ ... So can maneuvering your achy body on rainy days....but I'm gonna give it a go today. What are you going to be doing?! :-)

Rain or shine though, Oh, to be in love! And that's what inspired this poem. Once I fell in love with my husband I no longer wanted to live my life, I wanted to, and did, LOVE my life! {This is the quote I put in my book of poems about this particular poem. The whole book of poems is on sale in my shop...OKAY, so it's a shameless early morning plug! LOL Can't you give an old swollen jointed woman a break?!! ^_^}

Loving Or Living

Love is easy.
It's living that's hard.
Love is like a clinic.
Living's like a psycho ward.

Love is comfortable.
Living is like a scratchy shirt.
Love is like a healing.
Living is always full of hurt.

Love is like a smile.
Living is like a toothless grin.
Love is your companion.
Living is your deceptive friend.

Love can last forever.
Living is a game of hit or miss.
Love is spontaneous.
Living's got to make a list.

Love is like a dream.
Living is, sometimes, a nightmare.
Love is solid ground.
Living is the quicksand found down there.

Love is a country road.
Living is somewhere round the bend.
Love will last forever.
Living will someday have to end.

Love is me and you,
Living in the rhythm and the rhyme.
Living is everybody's.
Love is forever yours and mine.
