infinite possibilities

Monday, August 18th, 2008

it’s mid-august and i’m running out of three days weekends! i have the fortunate pleasure of getting four full weeks off during the summer, and this year i decided to break up my vacation time and have long weekends every week. it’s been awesome and excitingly ordinary. the usual rotation is that friday is the action day where i venture out of the neighborhood. saturday is chore day with our regular routine of starting the day off at the green market and moving around the hood… then sunday gps goes kayaking and i get alone time with tigerlilli and i usually craft or read or just be lazy.

this weekend i was un-usually productive and crafty. i stitched up my first ever dress using the infinity dress pattern over at rostichery; i finished the laundry started earlier this week (hey, small victories, people!); and i finished my very first quilt which i started nearly two years ago. i also made some slip covers for the bolsters on our daybed/couch and thus completed my lagging project of ‘decorating’ the living room. gps had the latest radio lab podcast playing in the background, so as i was sewing the binding on the quilt i got to listen to physics guru brian greene get annoyed and exaserbated my dear dear pod-crush robert krulwich while explaining the ‘infinite universe’ theory/mindfuck/thang. woot!
