Living with Dogs

I love having dogs and can’t imagine living without them and I adore our dogs. In fact, I hope eventually we can have some land and a set up where we can have four or five dogs. Definitely not going to trade them in but it would be so nice to be able to have a set up like this (which is impossible with dogs):

And I do have a lambskin rug (not nearly as gigantic as this) which ends up staying folded up because the dogs get it so dirty. I guess that makes no sense considering the fact that we’re going to have dogs for a very, very long time.

Sewing

I haven’t sewn anything since high school. I just can’t get down with sewing. And I don’t have a sewing machine. I have two buttons hanging off of my coat that I need to sew on so that I don’t lose them, but I can’t even find a needle and thread (do I really not have a needle and thread?). That being said, I want to make this (Candice tweeted about it earlier today):

I’m horrible with mail and maybe this will help me get rid of my mail heaps. I can dream, right?

Thanks, Bright & Brithe.

I’ll meet you there.

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,
there is a field.
I’ll meet you there.
When the soul lies down in that grass,
the world is too full to talk about.

Beautiful. Swashes. Heart. Makes me want to design a children’s fairy tale book.

First week

Wow, the first week of this year is a jam-packed one! On the agenda:

  • First birthing class (I have no idea what to expect but I know that the class is a mix of all different ideas and methods so I’m looking forward to that!)
  • Infant CPR class (I don’t even know regular CPR so this will be good!)
  • Client lunch
  • Client phone conference
  • Baby kicking like crazy – it’s starting to feel a little like Alien – these sudden body parts (as yet unidentifiable) jutting out of my belly! Very weird.
  • Balance
  • Page for M2C (a secret project)

Let’s get started!
