I Finished a Project!

I am famous for not finishing stuff. I can't tell you how many unfinished projects I have. Really. I can't. However, as recently discussed, this is a New Year. This morning, I FINISHED a project. I FINISHED making a total of 16 origami books (can be used as little journals or little scrapbooks or whatever). FINISHED, I tell you. FINISHED.

I'm having a good time with my Crafter's Devotional project. Do something or thing about something and then move on to a new day. Hit it. Do it. And then-- next?? I'm not going to be able to do the exercise every day (which, honest to the goddess, will be okay), but I'm going to actually exercise my creativity every day that I do, in something that can actually be accomplished. In the meantime, I'll be solving design problems and learning more about how to use my materials. Today I'm recovering my Big Black sketchbook. It will become my Big Green sketchbook. (That's a dusty blue-green, actually.)

Let's see.... We spent at least an hour this afternoon watching "our" bobcat couple hang around the house. Bobcat and Bobettecat are in love. They cuddle and flirt and groom each other and just hang out. We also walked through our preliminary landscape plan. Much to be done yet. Since I'm having my Tooth from Hell removed tomorrow morning, Randy took me to Pier 46 for a fish sandwich. I didn't want to have leftovers for my last meal.

My Breville stand mixer arrived today!! I'm so looking forward to trying it out. But I gotta deal with this tooth before I can think about any more cooking or baking.
