Rainy and warm
First of all, hop on over to A Biblio Paradise and celebrate the release of my friend Michelle Miles’s new book, ONE KNIGHT ONLY. Congrats, Michelle!
Tired, but it’s a good tired. Got some work done in the morning, Drove to Wareham. Didn’t find what I needed at Lowe’s, but at a combination of other stores, unexpectedly got almost all my fall/winter shopping done: three pairs of yoga pants (two eco-friendly and amazingly comfortable that can also double as “real people pants” to go out in with tunics or long sweaters), some sports bras, three shirts, a pair of subtle Glen-Plaid dress slacks, and a pair of shoes. The shoes are really for spring and summer — turquoise suede peep-toe skiimmers. I had my eye on them earlier this year, but didn’t want to spend the money. However, they were about 85% off — I got them for $6.29! So I’m a happy camper.
And, of course, stopped at the Lindt outlet to stock up on chocolate, what with a new book to start on Saturday and all! 😉
Spent most of the afternoon organizing the storage room. We’re getting an anergy assessment on Monday, and I have to get at least the storage room organized (the basement is a lost cause). Unpacked more than a dozen boxes, rearranged things, did four loads of laundry as I discovered sheets, towels, blankets, linens. More work on that today.
And I finally have the creativity altar for the Year-Long the way I want it!
However, that meant that I was up until midnight catching up with student work. I collapsed into bed, exhausted, and dreamed about a mishmash of everyone’s stories being one big tale.
Onward.
Devon
Thanks for all your hard work on the course, Devon. It’s easy for us – we only have to deal with one story – but you have to absorb them all and then comment on all our work.
All your efforts are greatly appreciated.
Hope you were able to get some rest and have a lovely day.
As Colin said, thank you for all your hard work, Devon. It’s been an amazing experience thus far and I’m so grateful to be a part of it.
I don’t know how you keep all our stories straight. I bet that dream was a real hoot! 😀
Did someone say peep-toe skimmers? Ooo! I want! Damn, what a price, too!
I haven’t been shopping in a while. I’m owed what amounts to a three-month income and the checks haven’t arrived yet. Not late, just not fast enough. 🙂
