Summer To-Do Update

I’m heading into my second week of summer vacation (will be back to work on July 1st) and I thought I’d pause to assess the things I’ve accomplished thus far…

• (nearly) finished first real crochet project
• first dye baths, giving clothing a new lease on life
• done embroidery work on aforementioned items
• felted some beautiful, bright blue wool- now need to cut it up.
• completed the transfer of items from old house to new
• hired a guy to complete the last phase of old house move out: epic junk haul
• sold the toyota corolla…
• … to a dealership that, in turn, sold the hubs a ford ranger…
• … which then got me hubs’ car, the fabulous honda fit named frida.
• set a museum date with cabin77 and her lovely daughter
• band practice resumes after a month-long hiatus
• got a new library card
• trip to california next weekend
• trip to boston two weekends after that
• as of this afternoon, will have seen three movies at the paramount with the hubs

Yes, there are still several items remaining on my original Summer To-Do List, but the above itemization has got me feeling very good (and very productive) about how things have been going.  Hooray for Summer!
