Weekend



This weekend I:

- Went out for a long overdue girls night
- Dreamt I joined a circus and did tricks on elephants
- Learned 2 new things about my Gocco press
- Printed in preparation for holiday cards soon to be on Etsy
- Enjoyed the gorgeous weather off leash at the park
- Received the sweetest letter from a most amazing friend
- Watched a scary movie in my pjs with apple pie
- Finished my scarfette (Thanks to miss Painted Fish)
- Took a Sunday cat nap under lots of fluffy blankets
- Spent time with my wonderful Nana
- Had dinner at a local wine bar with family
- Wished I didn't have to go back to work

Here's a pic of the scarfette for those interested:

Your weekend sounds wonderful; and the scarfette is so cute! I love it!

Travel home from a business trip and chores were the extent of my weekend, nothing exciting there.

I LOVE the scarfette!!

Your weekend sounds full and lovely. We:

- had dinner with our neighbors for the first time (one of whom is the ex-mayor...my history/politics buff husband was in heaven!)
- went to our nephew's 13th birthday party
- got great news that one of our best friends is buying the house 4 down from us!
- ate pizza and drank beer (so bad, but soooo good)

It sounds like that perfect combination of busy and lazy. I had a nice weekend...the husband had both days off (very rare) so we just did "family" time.

Jules said...

fantastic scarfette! sounds like you had the best weekend :) mine wasn't nearly as action packed. yesterday was nice because i was lazy and layed around catching up on my design magazines.

What a beautiful scarfette!! The colors of the fabric and the buttons are perfect together. It makes me wish that fall was arriving a bit quicker in my city.
