Feeling better

Ok, going and sewing at L's house did me a world of good. I got lost in sequined appliques and talking shop, and soon found myself in that almost zen state that getting to work undisturbed on a good project could bring. We wrapped up just around the time Husband and Mags were getting ready to leave, so I got to spend a bit of time with them before they dashed off to the ranch. Even when I need down time, I am sad to see them go.

Yesterday I put my head down, had some caffeine for lunch, grabbed the snow shovel fromthe shed and dug my bedroom out of some SERIOUS disrepair. I found my bed again, as well as my worktable, and about 30 pieces of clothing I'd forgotten I owned. Later that night I watched 'Cars', because I had the house all to myself and could watch ANYTHING (howd'ya like that logic?)

Today was spent helping my brother-in-law pick up some new furniture with our truck. I got a bit of puttering done around the house, but not nearly as much as I had hoped. And that crazily unrealistic list of things I had hoped to accomplish while on break? Mostly unfinished, although the house does look better, which helps me not lock up from the visual clutter and makes it easier for me to get stuff done.

A relaxing break? Not entirely. Looking forward to class in the am? Not entirely. Looking forward to seeing my family in about 2 hours?

Definitely.
