Good morning friends! Back to work today. I am ready. It was good to take a longer break, even if I felt guilt at times. It was fun to have an introspective summer camp of sorts here at home - what did I want to work on or explore? I decided to work through the… Continue reading Experiments with Embroidery

A Little Bit of This, A Little Bit of That
Hello friends! I was supposed to go back to work tomorrow, but decided yesterday that I'd take the entire week off instead untz untz untz. It's weird that I feel a little guilty about this. I keep coming up with justifications internally (I've only had two days off since the New Year! I'm burned out!… Continue reading A Little Bit of This, A Little Bit of That
Memorial Day Weekend
Hello friends! If you are in the states, Happy Memorial Day. We have the day off today, which is so nice. I don't know what to do with all this unstructured time. I simultaneously want to do all the things and do nothing. I realized that I hadn't had a proper day off (not counting… Continue reading Memorial Day Weekend
A Weekend of Crafting, Hikes, and Hair Dyeing
Good morning friends! I found myself awake at 5 am again. I'm a light sleeper, and if Husband accidentally wakes me up, then that's it. I tried in vain to fall back asleep, then decided at 6:30, there's only so much Instagram scrolling one can do without feeling like a useless human. It's good to… Continue reading A Weekend of Crafting, Hikes, and Hair Dyeing
Fulfillment with the Familiar
Happy Sunday, friends! I'm relaxing after a busy week at work (which extended a bit into Saturday, as well). Yesterday we took the pup on another hiking trip. It was a new park and we basically had it all to ourselves. It was beautiful! The weather was sunny and in the 80s, and I was… Continue reading Fulfillment with the Familiar
Weekend Makes – Earl Grey Wrap
Happy Sunday, friends! I hope you all are doing well! I had a good week. It was a very quiet week at work, the quietest since...I can't even remember. I am grateful for it. Yesterday we decided to go for a little hike in a nearby park, since I desperately needed a change of pace… Continue reading Weekend Makes – Earl Grey Wrap
2018 Recap
Good morning, friends! As I type this, I am drinking coffee, have a knitting project on my lap (I needed a break from the llama amigurumi torso) and am wondering when the Twilight Zone marathon is starting (edit: it's already started, YAY!) I can hardly believe it is already New Year's Eve. What a year.… Continue reading 2018 Recap
Enchanted Rock and Fredericksburg Trip
I've been wanting to hike Enchanted Rock for quite awhile. If you haven't heard of Enchanted Rock before, it's a beautiful pink granite dome located in the Hill Country. Climbing the Rock is a rite of passage for any Texan. Before my studies intensified in the summer, I was trying to organize a trip to… Continue reading Enchanted Rock and Fredericksburg Trip
Weekend Updates – Hiking, Magic (Cards) and Craftiness
Good morning! It's hard to believe it's already August 20th. The month is slipping through my fingers. Only 11 days left in the fiscal year and a little more than two months until my test. The past two weekends have been fun. On Saturday, we explored Bull Creek Park. It was beautiful. I definitely want… Continue reading Weekend Updates – Hiking, Magic (Cards) and Craftiness
A Weekend Recap
Happy Monday! I had a great, relaxing weekend. It was just the tonic I needed after a busy week...I was able to stay late last week and finish several of my neglected reports. So now they're either in review or revision mode...and one can wait after 8/31 so I'll have something to do when our… Continue reading A Weekend Recap
