well, for once in my life i feel like i'm achieving stuff and the not so good stuff isn't dragging me down as much as it usually is.
I've been rewatching Sherlock Holmes...the complete box set, over 39 hours @_@ i have 2 discs to go yet and been enjoying one of my fave and muchly missed actors. Also enjoying the nostalgia it brought with memories of happier childhood times.
I've only read 4 paper books in the last year which depressed me, but then i've been into my audiobooks while i sculpt and sew and i've listened to 9 nightside series about 4 times i loved it so much, 4 Rachel Morgan Hollows series which is the current set, the series that Vampire Diaries is based off (tv show is SO NOT ACCURATE to the books), the Southern Vampire Mysteries, otherwise known as True Blood from TV, ALL 9 BOOKS, so yeah i know what happens...O and the Undead and series of books, i love the shallowness of the main character she's brilliantly written. long ago i read 2 of that series and it was great catching up.
I've been sewing...i completed a commish yesterday. Steampunk shabby chic waistcoat. I made it from linen i had in my stash and dyed it and used a victorian pattern system to make the pattern to measure. I'm pretty pleased with the results and it looks quite good even if i say so myself. I also have another commish in beginnings so hopefully it will be steadyish.
While i was in the sewing mood i got a couple of dolly things underway as well. I really wish i could sew chiffon, i love it so much, but without an overlocker or something i always muck up the edges >
