Productivity

Wow I got things done today. There's still a ton of things that need doing but I found my momentum and it feels great.
I worked on the elsewhere project some more. It really helps to have a clear idea of what a cultures architecture looks like to really solidify how a city is laid out.
Food got preped for the weekend without turning the kitchen into a disaster. Dinner got made before my husband got home and I even got in a bit of exercise.
I've been meaning to start doing yoga for a while, but I've never been flexible enough to do a lot of the poses correctly. Thankfully I've finally found a set of poses that are perfect for an absolute beginner like me. Once I get my flexibility up to par I'll be ready to move on to normal yoga.
I even managed to play portal2 for a while without making my self nauseous.

Cardigans and cable knit sweaters oh my!

I am a sucker for cardigans. Comfy and warm they're like a knitted hug and thankfully at the moment they are fashionable. The reason though may have more in common with the great depression rather than haute couture. The last time knitwear was so hugely popular was the 30's because it was more cost effective to make your own clothes. Guess that explains the 'do it yourself' attitude that’s becoming more and more popular.
Sadly I have neither the skill or patience to knit a full sized garment. I’ll stick with cooking mostly from scratch in a comfy cardigan.

In with the old out with the new....Wait what?

The holidays are over, massive amounts of baking have been accomplished, gifts have been given and the new year has begun. There's a lot to look forward too and a great deal I have to accomplish.
I'm going with my mom to the Writers conference in Surrey where I can hopefully get more feedback on a big project I'm working on.
Also hopefully in the not too distant future I'll acquire more stable employment. It'd be nice to be able to afford to take some life drawing classes again, I've gotten painfully rusty. Plus my husband and I both want to get back into larping. It'd be nice to be able to hang out with friends more often again especially now that I have plans for a slightly more combat intensive character. I'm really itching to learn how to spar with folks.
