Monday

Two day weekends really suck after having a 5 day weekend.  I always manage to cram a lot into two days.  I cleaned my house, quite literally from bottom to the top, had a friend stop by for a visit to see the house, had dinner with my parents, finished up a couple more orders, napped, went shopping, and fit in some movie-watching as well.

I am in the midst of letting my shop wind down so that I can get a little bit of R&R.  I haven’t been feeling very well lately, and I think it has a little bit to do with the fact that I’ve been burning the candle at both ends for a little too long. Lots has happened! So many good things, a few stressful things, and I need a little break.  I also am really wanting to work on a few new Fall / Winter pieces. 

I am craving Fall like no one’s business.  It’s still so hot here, was in the 30’s (Celcius) this weekend, but I busted out my fall wreath, and dug out my flannel sleep shorts.  I’m ready for the heat to end and the crispness of fall to begin! I have some lovely heather grey jersey, blush sequinned net, jewel toned crushed velvet,  nude lace, and a bunch of Venice lace appliqués that will become a part of my fall / winter collection.

Fall is my favourite season.  I love the food, the way the air smells, cool rosy cheeks, the leaves, the colours…  And of course, Halloween!
