I admit it. I got a little distracted after that last blog post...a month ago. Sorry. Want to know what's been getting my attention?
Mostly I've been getting things done. Things like these:
and these:
Yay for getting lots of gifts off to their recipients...and making some space in the closet!
In the middle of all that this showed up in my mailbox:
Yup, as soon as I saw the cover I sat down and read the entire magazine. Can you blame me? I really want to make that cover quilt...but maybe a miniature version since this one takes nine yards of fabric just for the yo-yos. Sigh.
and then these showed up:
After flipping through that top one at least a hundred times I ordered this, and ran to the mailbox every day to see if it had arrived yet:
And yes, I read the whole thing the same evening it arrived. Can you tell what I'd love to be working on right now?
Oh yeah, and those TWO sunny days we had during this alleged Spring - I spent in the garden:
So far one brave pea has emerged, and has been snowed on twice. Ugh. I often have nostalgia for snowy winters...but I just can't say the same for cold, wet springs. I really hope the sun comes out soon.
In the meantime I'm hunkering down indoors, with a few more distractions:
I promise to be back soon with more on all of this...for now I'm just thankful to have a few quiet minutes on the computer, while this sweet girl is napping.
She's a little under the weather today and daycare's closed since they're sick too, so I came home early. Best part of my day? When she asked me to snuggle with her on the couch while watching a movie. Guessing that won't last too much longer. :) (Second best part? When she told me she wanted to go to sleep at the exact time I wanted to put her down for a nap.)
How are you spending your days during this dreary Spring?
