Sorted by Color
.
I now have notepads glued into every Sticky Notes cover in my possession. Jen has another batch of circles she's gluing to covers for me. And I have a decent number of circles that I need to make covers for. But I've finally gotten to the stage I've been aiming for - having so much inventory that it warrants sorting them into storage boxes by color.
Mind you, all of these (and the other boxes of other colors not in this photo) still need embellishing and that's the time consuming part. And that's what will consume my weekend. I can't wait!
Poor cats. There's not a flat surface to be had in my studio. Even their little bed is covered up. Venus isn't worried - she's too busy catching baby mice. Oy.
Day job update: by the end of yesterday, I could declare that the day had sucked less than the day before. Woo-hoo! While I did get a chance to talk to Jen about the workload situation and we talked to our boss, I never got a chance to talk to my team. Too busy. I did ask two of them to help with audit-related tasks, which they responded to like the champs they are. At least I can breathe now. Breathing is good.
I intend to go into work as soon as I'm done writing this and get a good jump on the audit work.
Simon has gathered friends and vehicles to move the last of his stuff from his apartment to our house on Saturday. Steve and I are planning on cleaning the garage Saturday morning. We wanted Simon to help us since he has a bunch of car-related crap all over the place. But we really just want it done so we'll just do it and make one area The Simon Zone. We'll probably be done before he and his friends get moving. His definition of early and mine are hours apart.
Past experience shows the garage cleaning just takes a couple of hours. It's mostly just decluttering and sweeping.
Thus begins the chain of events that will ultimately help get my gallery in place! We'll move 2 desks out of Steve's old office in the basement into the garage to use for storage. That frees up room for Simon's stuff. And finally we can move stuff out of the den so I can turn that into my gallery, a place for customers to come pick up orders, see my work, etc.
And our new season of Geva Theatre starts Saturday so I'll be going with my friends Lynn and Linda to see the play, "Ella" Saturday afternoon, followed by dinner. I'm desperately worried that I'll fall asleep. Not that I'll be tired, but warm and comfy, in the dark, listening to smooth music?? Zzzzzzz. I just know it.

In spite of all the activity planned for Saturday, I'm determined to get as much embellishing done as possible, dammit.

Could you really fall asleep at a play? I can't imagine doing that. I have a hard enough time falling asleep in bed!
Unfortunately, yes! If only I could take my stitching to work on in the theatre. It's like at home while watching TV. As long as I'm stitching, I'm fine, but the minute I stop, I start yawning my head off like I'm about to keel over!
And my poor friend, Lynn, that I go to these plays with. She literally falls asleep every time. She says she does it at the movies too. She wears hearing aids so I'm half thinking that has a little something to do with it. She teases herself about it now - so Linda & I do too. She doesn't sleep through the whole thing, of course, but sometimes we can't imagine how she sleeps through a particularly boisterous scene, for instance. I feel bad for her though, I know she hates that she does that.
I LOVE those piles of sticky notes. I have a thing about paper and notebooks and the possibilities a perfectly pristine, never-written-in pad of paper holds!
As to falling asleep during a play -- my husband nearly fell asleep during a FLAMENCO show and those are loud (all that stomping!). Me, I was nursing a migraine, so NOT the best show to go to that night!
