I am hopeful

This is a silly shot really. My friend gave me these Peonies from her garden and they make my room smell so good. As I mentioned before, I have traded fresh flowers for toys and books next to my bed. I am sure the vase will be knocked over tomorrow, but for now I love looking at them next to my bed. They make me feel slightly hopeful that someday in the future I will go back to having nice pretty things! Good thing my lamp has a dimmer so I can gaze at them without noticing how badly I need to dust.
