Happy Valentine’s Day

Sunday February 15, 2015   

Here it’s snowing with high winds and sub-zero temperatures so staying in is the better bet.

I sent and received some Valentine’s packages this year. I feel lucky to have such good friends even if they live so far off. Even if I can only see them once every couple of years it’s easy to stay in touch these days especially compared to only 6~7 years ago! I remember 1 of the main reasons I had a blackberry in ‘08 was because it was the only phone that would allow me to email Japanese phones directly. Now everything is so much easier.

Mike got me roses this year with a french mason jar. Mostly in his eyes he got me the mason jar, haha, I like it a lot though! It says “jardin” on it.

Today I also got my hair cut very short again, so here is a photo from before that when my hair is fluffier and longer! I’ll take a new one soon since the cut I got was the same from August and I really liked that style. Lately, even the extra few inches, made it too difficult to “wash ‘n go” in the mornings. It’s winter… getting out of bed is tough enough let alone spending 70% of my morning trying to get my hair to look decent.

The latest issue of Lee is really pretty. I have a subscription to this magazine and also just ordered a subscription to Mart magazine. I went without a magazine subscription for a while after I quite Sweet magazine.

    Can you tell me what lipstick you are wearing in the pic? Good reds are hard to find!

    The short hair looks great on you! And the red lipstick is so pretty! You’re right, it’s so much easier to keep in contacts with friends overseas. I used to write letters back then. lol. so old school.

    Hi Jenny!

    I’m a big fan of your blog, and always excited to see new posts from you :)

    I was wondering where you do you get your magazine subscriptions from since they’re from Japan? We have a Japanese magazine store here in Hawaii, but sometimes I prefer to get my magazines in the mail.

      I use Fujisan.com. I’ve been using them almost nonstop for about 10 yrs now. You can easily subscribe and unsubscribe (after 3 issues) and they’ll try to get a new magazine series if you request it. They show up about the same time for me as they do at the nearby Japanese market. :)
