It's Friday night, and I'm staying in. i should be out socializing, but i just couldn't muster the umph to do it. i'm in my pjs, and my favorite slippers; snuggled up with all the fleece blankets and pillows, nestled between the dogs. can you blame me? besides, i have a fog in my brain today. it's been there all day, clouding up my thought process. i'd be more like a zombie than a party animal, and although zombies appear to be cool, they're not fun to hang out with. they're just fun to shoot.
i'm spending my time muddling through:
a.) marketing schemes - 50% my prices to all students & 25% off all services for the month of may
b.) trying to name the 500+photos i took on my trip -

my dad is going to come down and help me set up the garden in may or june. i'm really excited he's going to help because he's an experienced gardener and he has the greenest thumb of anyone i've ever known. i hope he draws up a diagram. he usually draws one up before tackling a big project. right now he's in the middle of building a bar in the basement of the new house. he's making it out of the extra kitchen cupboards that were collecting mold in our basement when we moved in. he cleaned them up and made them into something new. it's amazing.
mother's day is coming up, and i'm considering trying to make a queen-sized quilt for my mom. this is completely crazy. i haven't quilted anything since middle school, and even then it was only a bag. i really don't know where i would come up with the time to do something like this. the only reason why i'm even considering it is because my mom gave me all her quilting supplies awhile back along with a bunch of fabric and a design she liked. she gave it to me to make for myself, but i know it's something she would really love for herself. decisions, decisions.
