It is Cinco de Mayo. What that means I really don't know. I tend to confuse Cinco de Mayo (the fifth of May) with holidays like Fat Tuesday and Shrove Tuesday. Oops, same day. You get what I mean! And yet-Cinco de Mayo has absolutely nothing to do with Easter! It's a Mexican thing celebrating some war victory. So, I think I just like saying, "It's Cinco de Mayo!!!" cause it sounds cool.
If you clicked above and remembered the show about nothing, then may I remind you that you read this blog occasionally, and so I thought I'd offer for you to follow my random nothings at Twitter. I'm @dreamingPress. I spout the odd inspirational thing but mostly it's just everyday stuff.
The flowers in my photo above, were left on the coffee table by this fabulous lady for our enjoyment last June in her hip Greenwich Village apartment. So really, they are June flowers, not May flowers. But alas, they are here to brighten up your day! That lovely lady is expecting a baby soon...sooooo go pay her a visit and see what she is up to. I've been following her since she had just over 2000 followers. She now has over 10,000. A popular and very likeable gal. {Anyone who leaves flowers like this for strangers simply must have a heart of gold!}
By the way...that super fantastic Christine Mason Miller has done it again. She oozes inspiring. I don't even need to bother being creative-Christine has done it for me. Spoken what is in my heart, my soul. And transcribed it onto gorgeous stamps. CRESCENDOh features a lot of Christine's work and is a super hip happy artistic spot to spend all your money at.

p.s. I'm up this early to work out. I'm so motivated after following the Biggest Loser for countless Tuesdays! And Kath may agree with me. We are both crying every Tuesday night!!
Good morning Gillian. It's 6 a.m. and just about the first thing I did (after making coffee) was visit here. And lucky me - I got to enjoy brilliant purple irises. What a fabulous day to jump-start my day. Have a good one. Annie
