BeSparkly

I love the Olympics, but I really LOVE the Winter Olympics!  My favorite sport to watch is ice skating and I’m happily watching the the men’s short program right now.  Now of course, I always have to have something sparkly going on, so meet Quatchi ~ he’s one of the official Vancouver 2010 mascots.  He’s watching the Olympics with me.  (^-^)

I already have some new favorites, the Japanese skater Daisuke Takahashi because his short program was amazing after coming off a big injury.  My all time favorite skater is Johnny Weir, because people always try to bottle his personality, but his sparkle is meant to shine.  Yes, Johnny Weir is sparkly.  I’m also rooting for the other American skaters, Evan Lysacek and Jeremy Abbott.

Olympians are sparkly ~and anyone who gets out there and does there best is sparkly.

I don’t know who made all these cute little guys, but they are super cute. I picked a few for today in honor of Valentine’s Day.

A cute little manju (dumpling)~

A smitten monkey ~ lol

and a…um…bunny? rubber glove??

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Twilight is my favorite time of day and no, I haven’t seen the Twilight movies or read the books (yet, I may, who knows). We’ve had so much snow this season that it’s super sparkly outside. I took this a few days ago when we got another 12 or so inches. I’m not sure how many inches we’ve had this season, but I know it’s probably over 36″. Luckily, it gets super sunny here during the day (I sure don’t miss those overcast days in Chicago) so the snow often melts quickly before we get more.

February 4th is Be Sprockily Day!

It’s Groundhog Day!  Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow, so another six weeks of winter.  Maybe we’ll get more sparkly snow!

Random, traditional holidays are super sparkly ~ (^-^)

The Valentine’s banner is up now!  Is everyone surviving the deep freeze and crazy weather?  We got 15 inches of snow the other day and it was our third major snowfall this winter and we’re in a moderate zone where we usually don’t even get snow.

February Sparkle Scopes are up!
