A Productive Weekend

Posted in Everyday, tagged house keeping, housework, NaNoWriMo, writing on October 28, 2013| 5 Comments »

I worked my patootie off this weekend. Seriously, I haven’t done this much domestic work in one weekend for a really long time. As much as I like doing craft shows (and spending lots of time getting ready for them) I was craving some time with my dust cloth and vacuum cleaner. I even cleaned the oven! Okay, so it’s a self-cleaner, but still, I had to be on guard in case the whole thing caught fire. Yes, it was that bad.

The house is once again ~~in order~~ under control. I feel free! One thing I concentrated on was picking up and cleaning up my special writing room. I call it the East Wing. With NaNoWriMo coming soon (starts Friday!) I wanted a comfortable place to sit and write. And write and write. Away from any distractions.

My lovely East Wing.

There’s one more craft show in store for me in Taylors Falls, MN. It’s not until the Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving, so I have a little bit of time for crafty and writey projects. This weekend got me motivated and off to a good start.

A Toast

Posted in Everyday, tagged gratitude, wine on October 25, 2013| 2 Comments »

Last night Husby and I toasted our good fortune. Every once in a while you have to sit back and realize what’s really good in your life. It’s easy to focus on the negative, even if you mean to improve it. But to sit down and say I’m grateful for the things we have, the good relationship we have, and the future looks bright makes a huge difference.
