at least we were warned...


twenty eleven 
wrapped itself up and walked out on us. just like that.
i swear i blinked and she was gone.
poof. nothing now but a few memories.
~
for the past ten years i've been saving my spiraled desktop calendars
{yep i still use one}
as they tend to act like my daily diaries
~
doctor appointments. lunch outings. visitors. birthday parties. photo shoots. girl get-aways.
weather remarks. travel. meetings. blog notes. dates. flea markets.
everything is documented. for an entire year. 
now times ten.
~
i know some of you journal and i wish i could be as diligent as you are, keeping all my notes, thoughts and ideas in a cool moleskin, but i fail miserably every time i try. so for me, this is the next best thing.
every calendar is different in size and color. they stack haphazardly on a shelf in my office.
but they're mine. they're my life. my family's life.
and
now that time seems to be flying by faster then i ever imagined 
and
my memory seems to be a bit weaker then it was just a year ago
they're cherished

as i type this, we're watching the rose bowl. praying our badgers win.
if they do, just so you know, that will be written in RED in my calendar
