Patience

Please excuse the silence around here lately - I still don't have internet access at my new apartment. Hopefully the technician will get it up and running by next Wednesday. In the meantime I spend the evenings knitting, re-watching The Office for the gazillion's time and enjoying the last summer nights outside. I love summer but I can't wait for fall to arrive!

Anyone else craving long walks, cozy evenings at home with lots of time for crafts and of course lots of apple pie and tea?

life lately

After several stressful weeks months, life has finally calmed down a little. I'm at my parent's for a couple of days cat sitting while they're on vacation. I haven't had much time to decorate my apartment yet but as soon as it looks home-y I'll show you a couple of pictures.

Today I realized that I haven't had a chance to pick up my camera for days weeks, so I took some quick shots of our cats while they were soaking up the last bits of sunshine in our backyard. I'm gonna miss these two cuties badly but I'm starting to look into adopting a kitten - an apartment/house without a cat simply doesn't feel like home to me. I wish I could take my cat with me but it would break his heart not to be able to go outside anymore - and not having another cat to chase.

I'll be back soon with something crafty to make up for the past months of knitting abstinence.

Life Is Good

- bought an AWESOME sewing machine. It's pure love. I can't wait for the weekend when I get to sew a cute project or two :)
- lots of baking going on here. Yumm!
- homegrown zucchini and basil. So good!!
- hunting for a cute lamp shade knitting pattern. I wanna restyle this simple lamp and turn it into something lacy and stylish!

Sorry for being so quiet lately, but life has been full of time-consuming surprises lately. It's been exhausting, but good.
