Around 8AM on Sunday morning, I decided that I was going to start taking all of my arts-n-crafts supplies out of their boxes and off the floor, and start puttin' them on the shelf. I was just going to work on it for a half an hour or so, but as I unwrapped each little pinking shear/paper crimper/glass cutter, I got more and more excited. When I finally looked up at the clock it was after 11AM, and I was supposed to be in St. Paul watching the Winter Carnival Half Marathon. The sewing machine in the picture is one that my Mom got me for free on her mail route. It is in total need of some work, but I'm trying to hold off because Zander's parents are giving me a really nice machine for my birthday. I've got the fever, and also some really nice fabric, so I think I'm going to price out some tune-ups. My little studio is a work in progress, but I like where it is going.

I promise I'm not going to go gooo-gooo and post about Boo! every damn time I update. However, while we were downstairs workin' on some projects, Boo! jumped right up on Zander's shoulder and stayed there. He stayed there when Zander went upstairs to get some Necco Wafers (disgusting), he stayed on while Zander washed out his ink brushes, but he seemed to like to sit and watch him draw most of all. He did jump down when I started vacuuming.
