Street Corner Blues

"And all you see is where else you could be when you're at home. And out on the street are so many possibilities to not be alone." - Death Cab for Cutie

I'm feeling a little blue tonight. Today is the start of my week without my kids. I miss them so much. I called tonight just so I could hear their voices. After having spent the whole week chasing them around and hearing their constant chatter, it's so incredibly quiet now. It's surreal and sad. I hope it gets easier with time.

It's strange living in 2 different places. It seems no matter which "home" I'm at, I'm missing something. I kinda feel like I don't have a real home right now. Home is a place where you have everything you need. I can't say that about either one of my places of residence right now. In a sense, I'm homeless. I keep telling myself that this is just a transition period and that gets me through. I know this is the best solution for the kids, so I'm willing to be patient.

Today's photos were taken at an old, abandoned building on a street corner. I'm wearing an old Anthro skirt that I haven't worn in awhile. It is really big on me, so I belted it. I forgot to pack my belts in my suitcase, so I dug around the bottom of my closet at the kid's house and found an old belt from The Limited that I haven't worn that much. I think it goes perfect with this skirt. The flowers on the belt look a lot like the embroidered flowers on the skirt. So, sometimes it pays to improvise.

The song of the day is "Your Heart Is An Empty Room" by Death Cab For Cutie. This is one of my favorite songs by Death Cab. It reminded me of the way I'm feeling tonight, typing away in this quiet room.

On a lighter note, I've got some Anthro reviews coming your way soon. Also, if you haven't already done so, check out my items for sale here. I've got some great dresses, a skirt, and a jacket for sale.
