Happy weekend friends!
I've been in the house all day....not getting dressed...sewing, painting, gluing, writing...stuff like that. It's windy, snowy and blowy outside.
This week felt really draining...had extra classes to teach, went to a few spinning classes at the gym, had a meeting, and then ended up finding myself stopping by the hospital to see someone who is in the ICU due to domestic violence. Not news I expected to, or wanted to hear- at all. I'm feeling defeated a bit, but decided that maybe if I hibernate in the house this weekend I can refresh myself physically and emotionally.
So I've been hiding, trying to drop my shoulders from up near my ears, and relax a bit. Making lots of hearts...some for a swap, some not. It makes me happy.
I talked to Vivian on the phone for a bit today and we were noticing a lot of people have been a bit in the dumps lately. Maybe it's that time of year. So I'm trying to keep cheery with all these pretty Valentine's things around me, and trying to enjoy the simple things.
I was cheered when I opened my mailbox today and saw this card from Maija ....isn't it wonderful?!
oh, and also when my mom gave me these sweet spatulas!...
So anyway, I'm going to go back to making stuff. I'd like to be making chili right now, but since I don't want to get dressed and head to the grocery store I may just settle for a red wine dinner.
...or maybe a cupcake. Or both.
