I'm not keen on this wind

I feel like it is going to blow the house down around me.

That is all.

Wahhhh!

Why does the internet mock me so?

I resolve to reduce my spending, and what do I find? Fabric Worm has the entire Castle Peeps line available in 1/2 yard increments, or just the red colourway in full yards...in a bundle.

Whyyyyyyy?

Rested and relaxed

I spent two nights in Whitehorse, and drove back on Saturday. All in all, I feel pretty good.

I got winter tires, had my truck serviced, got a new tattoo, had a haircut, and went to the Quilt Store to pick up some nice fabric to complement the cowboy fabric my sister sent me. I had coffee from Tim Horton's. I watched TV. It was a pretty good getaway.

I'm avoiding thinking about tomorrow, and that's okay.

Strung Out

Thank Zappa I am going to WH tomorrow. The cumulative effects of the past six months without a full-time boss have finally taken their toll. If I were a person who had firearms training, I would probably be a danger to all around me (joking, joking!).

Tonight's mission? Get through the Special Meeting without bursting into tears, come home and pack up the truck with emergency gear, and work on one of the two projects I have going. Also, keep out of the Hallowe'en candy.

Go, go, Team Free Will!

Desiderata (in two lines)

You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.

Preach it, Max Ehrmann.

This week's Wednesday

Yes, it's Tuesday, but for me it is Wednesday. I'm taking Thursday and Friday off to go to Whitehorse to get snow tires, get my truck serviced, and to finally make it to the quilt store. I need fabric to go with Hezz's cowboy fabric, and something to use as backing for the quilt I plan to give to Leo.

Council meeting tonight. Special meeting tomorrow. New interim boss started yesterday. I'm feeling something that could be optimism...or it could be residual heartburn from last night.

I'd better find some clothes.

You know what is amazing about today?

It's half over! Which means I am 4 hours away from curling up on the couch with Hunter's quilt, a cup of Relaxing Tea, and Alien Resurrection (followed by Alien vs Predator). Why not Aliens, my favourite movie of all time, you ask?

Because I watched it last night.

Jeanne is coming over tomorrow for assistance with a quilt kit, which means I will be doing a bit more tidying up. But other than popping over to the Went's for dinner, I will be glued to the couch, quilting away to some of my favourite sounds ^__^
