Yesterday was one of those days I should have just stayed home. I woke up at 3:40 and couldn't go back to sleep. Forgot to grab my lunch out of the fridge. And since I am beyond broke I settled for a bagel. We had an upgrade to the computer system we use and it was slooooooooooooooooooooow. And not working right to boot. I got nothing acomplished yesterday, which was sad because I was motivated at the start. It didn't help that the fire alarm went off and we had to stand outside for an hour. I went to the public library, the best part of the day, and got some more books. It was raining when I caught the bus, then I realized that I was on the wrong one... they dock right next to each other and because I was reading I didn't notice until the bus turned the wrong way. So, I got off at the first stop and made my way back to the station and waited 30 minutes for the next bus.
On a brighter note here are the books I finished over the weekend. |

Just dropping in to the library to get some more books. I am spending the weekend reading, making cards, organizing my stuff and maybe I will go see something at the cheap theater. Nothing too intense for me. Hope you all hava good weekend! k

Spent most of the evening working on bowls, magnets and cards. Found a solution to the packaging deliema I had about the magnets. I was going to buy clear plastic boxes, but I couldn't find any the size I wanted. So, I am going to keep them in their plastic bags and use recycled album covers to be the backing and put my logo on. Nice to make use of hte 200+ covers I have been holding on to for hopes that I could find a use for them.
Also I decided that I wanted to keep track of what I am reading. Just to see how much I read in the course of a year. Or if I get tired of writing it down a few months. Here are my first 2 contributions...

Everything is out of my old place. I have a car load I need to empty and a small pile at my neighbor's and I will get it next week. I feel pretty good about the status of my apt. I will take some pictures for you all so you can see my lovely home.
This weekend I signed the contract for the Art co-op and I have to start making things to sell there. I am going to try and have 200-250 cards (40-50 styles, 5 of each style), I want to have 30-40 packs of magnets (6 to a pack) and about 40 record bowls (I have about 20 already made.) I have to figure what else I can take.
Now, I have to go pay a parking ticket.

| move update |

I am a little bruised and a little sore, but most of my move is done. I have the majority of my boxes unpack and art on the walls. There is probably a car load of stuff left at the old place which I will get this weekend.
The only down side to my new home is that I don't get very good reception for my cell phone. I took it in to Sprint to see if they would upgrade the towers for me. They gave me a new phone, which I didn't want. But I brought it home and the had 3 dropped calls the first time out. I took it back and it seems like the never updated it to the towers. It still doesn't want to work right. Very frustrating. Not to mention that I have to imput numbers in to my phone again... and that I wrote some of the numbers down wrong. *le sigh*
Other than that life has been pretty calm. Getting ready for the co-op to open and trying to get more sales online. But hopefully the holiday season will help with that.

I have started the migration. I took over my first load of boxes yesterday. I hung some clothes in the closet, put some dishes away and put up the shower curtain. I have another car load to take over after work. Right now I am moving the "Things-that-don't-stack- well" items. And let me tell you how much I love the giant Ziploc bags! From record bowls to purses to towels they hold a lot.
I still have some packing to do, but it isn't too much left. Mostly clothes, bath stuff and the random stuff that is in my hall closet. And I have to figure out when to move Moose and what to do with his litter box. There isn't anyplace I can tuck it away like I have it now.

I am still here, honestly. Was out most of Thursday and Friday feeling kind of ill. Can I just say I don't like antibiotics very much? I don't take them very often, but when I do they just make me kinda queasy. So, I spent the weekend crashed out on the couch rather than packing. I signed my lease on my Friday and now I am going to start taking a few things over at a time. And probably get my dad's van this weekend so I can take some bookcases over, and hey, maybe a chair.
Hope everyone is managing to stay cool.
