In the fiberist area, I bought a black wire mannequin sort of thing at Ross Dress for Less today after our weekly trip to farmers market. Eventually I'll make a custom dress form and this thing will be the stand. Something I've wanted to do for a long time, but didn't know what to use for a stand and was, apparently, too lazy to research and solve the problem. Well, it's solved now. So there. And in the mean, the mannequin will adorably show off my latest whatevers. Cool.

It's Saturday!
Yup, it's Saturday and I'm STILL being a Responsible Adult. Okay, maybe that's Responsible Adult Lite, but that still counts, doesn't it? I did a necessary but Pain in the Butt (PITA) task this afternoon. Put away winter clothes and brought out summer clothes. If I had fewer clothes (I'm working toward that; really I am) or a bigger closet (as if this one couldn't house a small family in a third-world country) I wouldn't have to do this. In fact, I never had to do this in Los Osos since it doesn't get hot there in the summer (for the most part) and I could always stuff extras in other closets. But here in Atascadero there is a decided winter and summer, and usually an actual spring and fall, too. So, the toasty fleeces, hats, sweaters and wraps get put up on the high shelf for the summer while the short-sleeved tees and linen tops get brought down. Like I say, it's a PITA that I keep putting off because it involves numerous trips up and down the little step ladder. But I did it. And it's done.
