Live: Today was a day. It was okay, I guess, but if I didn't have wonderful pharmaceuticals running through my system, I think all the little crap would have gotten me down. But, I'm good. To start, Daisy kicked it off by peeing on the carpet. I finally decorated my office by putting up shelves for my vintage knick knacks, but I nearly ruined my wall with one of the shelves because I drilled one of the holes in the wrong spot. I put some of my photos in frames and hung them, but the frames were cheap and falling apart on me. By the time I got settled, I was too tired to actually do work work. And then I ate too many circus peanuts and gave myself a stomach ache. Sigh....But then I made a dog bed and did a bunch of cleaning and finished up some crocheting....I think I may have a problem relaxing.
Love: I'm now addicted to Jon & Kate Plus 8. They're having a marathon tonight on TLC and it's my first time seeing the show and I'm completely glued. Their marriage is fascinating to me. They almost seem to hate each other. It's like not being able to turn away from a train wreck or a car crash.
Laugh: Tonight, I was finishing up the scarf I was making for Waldorf (you know, because the ladies on Flickr thought he needed one). I had a lovely cup of tea sitting next to me on the table...right next to a little garbage bin I was using to throw in scraps of yarn....Can you see where this is going? While mezmerized by J&K+8, I absentmindedly threw bits of yarn in my tea instead of the bin. Sigh....I'm too tired to make more tea. So, I am tealess. :(
Give: I decided to cheer myself up a bit by giving myself some flowers. Of course, I also bought an Alicia Bock print and a bundle of beautiful fabrics on Etsy...because I don't have enough craft projects going on right now. So, I just gave to me today.

Gratus: Today, I am grateful for lint rollers and vacuum cleaners. Amanda is blowing her coat, which she does twice a year. So, there are giant tufts of hair everywhere. I'm vacuuming once a day and there is still fur floating about like dragonflies skimming the hardwood lake that is my first floor. I guess I could make a nice coat out of all of it like these folks. And, I totally wish I'd thought of taking this photo since I have so much fur on hand. Too funny.
Here's one of the flowers from my bouquet.
