on thursday mornings i drag myself out of bed at 5:45 to cook breakfast at the inn. there are several problems with this scenario one being i have breakfast at 6am and am then famished by 10 and ready for a nap by noon. the dishwasher’s coffee gets me going pretty well for a few hours but then i get grumpy and sleepy and i call the rest of the day pretty much shot as i don’t get over it. so today is perfect because it’s chilly and rainy outside so there’s no way i can work in the garden. that leaves stitching in front of the fire watching a movie and wandering out to the new studio to admire our handiwork.

studio remake # 589

studio

here we go again. i know it’s crazy and yet i can’t help myself. the very definition of crazy. the studio is moving again. just when it was fantastic especially with the new light fixture and the new closet shelves…

there are reasons. perfectly sound ones and i’m sure there will be perfectly good reasons for the next time as well. for the moment i’m just grateful that tearful dishwasher is my partner. he just looks me dead in the eyes and says “whatever you want baby” no matter what madness comes out of my mouth.

i’m a lucky girl.

tic tac toe

last night i had a dream that i was visiting my friend Allene who in for real life lives in the desert but in the dream she lived by the ocean which she loves. we were laying on the sand and the water receded and opened up to a cave that was filled with boxes of all sizes and we grabbed at the smallest ones right at the entrance to the cave and they were filled with…something. i can’t remember what! argh.

it reminded me of this http://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/10/health/10mind.html?_r=1&ref=science
especially since i was looking for a box yesterday to send her something.  i didn’t find the right size box.

yet.

the stitching continues…

at the seaside. the seaweed “heart” has held up pretty well though it sheds a little when handled.
i missed the beach walk this morning because it’s chilly and i’m lazy and it’s early. why are we up so early on a sunday morning? it may have something to do with going to bed at 8.
