here it is. the chess set i struggled to complete before christmas morning and with which i am not very satisfied. adjustments must be made. the kings and queens (note how the white ones are leaning) are too tall and fall easily. i should have made the bottoms wider on all the back pieces. i will get to it but i’m resting my machine until the new year arrives. i do love the pawns though. the beady little eyes and pointy little ears are perfect.
i feel for the dishwasher, confessing to his colleagues what his wife gave him for christmas! bless his heart he loves me anyway.

This is what the monk and I ate at Katz’s deli almost exactly this time last year. and some sandwiches which were awful because i didn’t say mayomustardtomatoetc. they gave me some cheese and two slices of rye.
and the waitress was a little scary so i just ate it. after we went to find something for dessert because this monk has a wicked sweet tooth.
this year my plate looks quite a bit different. we’re eating so well but so little. we’re shrinking our gigantic stomachs. on purpose.
i feel great, i feel light and clean.

Dear Anthropologie,

Stop sending me emails with all your luscious sweaters and skirts and THINGS!

Look here upon one of my own lovely things from my own hands.
At this rate I should be through my stash in about 10 more years. IF I don’t buy anything else during that time. So probly it will be more like 20 years.

studio was chilly cold this morning but my trusty little heater warms things up quickly. i’m making progress on my projects though i’ve slowed down a bit. enthusiasm is waning.

jumping on a trampoline is much harder and more painful than i imagined.

i’m making sweet potato and tofu enchiladas for dinner tonight.
not because i hate my husband but because it sounded yummy last week when i bought the ingredients.

this week….

i’ve avoided making it until today. the ingredients sitting there waiting.

and this after he made such a beautiful dinner last night.
he came home and took one look at me and went straight back out to the store and an hour later had a beautiful meal on the table in about an hour.

and here i am with sweet potato and tofu enchiladas.
and he’s coming home with duck.

for tomorrow.

i must have done something so right in some previous life to deserve this.

this week shows no signs of improvement.
i feel like a spider’s meal.
just waiting.
