hello same world


my window.


hello again.
it's a new year, I have a new home, and I'm embarking on a new adventure.
I hope this year goes smoother than the last. I won't dwell on 2009 much but, it felt like all I was doing was catching up with things that during the moments, were probably not things I'd want to be catching up with. school is nice, and learning new things is always enjoyable for me, but the amount of time and concentration it took seriously stole from things I wanted to really focus on. so this short break after my last semester and moving out of our apartment is rather nice, or necessary.
I have not made any progress on my berries line since my last sign off post, only shipping the orders I received between then and now. I've been knitting things lately. winter seemed appropriate and I wanted to get some warm hats, scarfs and mittens to my friends. although I think I'm working a little too slow since we just had a week of suffering in our floridian attire with the last cold front, and today being the "Worst Freeze in Florida Since 1989!"
it's about 32 degrees right now, I think it actually snowed yesterday. the orange trees are gonna die if it drops below 28, which they say it will. my mom has all her palm trees and bushes wrapped up in blankets in the front yard. it's hilarious
oh, yeah, I moved back in to my mothers house. for various reasons like more schooling, less working, and money saving. it's an ok deal though, I get a room and a new bed. I get to live with my 3 younger brothers. my vespa has a garage to live in, and it's closer to UCF. I will be taking 3 anthropology courses this semester so anything that motivates me to get to class is a good thing. I also don't have to pay rent so I can save money for things like beads, clothes and organic food.
the only down side is I now have to be miles apart from the two creatures I love to be around the most, chris and luna. I do believe we'll survive the long distance, though. there's no one in the world that gets me the way those two do.

Well that's enough about me now. with this post I initiate the full utilization of my craft through out the 2010 year. I'm committed to not procrastinate, and to finish all the projects I started last year, so to make space for new inspiration.

moving day. don't we look lovely?


my new bed from IKEA, duh.
it satisfies my minimalist approach to comfort


here is my walk-in closet which I made my craft room. its small, cozy and perfect.
I just don't have any closet space...


I have plenty of space in this closet for all my craft crap. I have a lot of it, and its already beginning to make my place look like a cluttered mess.

hibernation

I've been finding it difficult to post regularly. I don't even budget my crafting time very well. with school and a ridiculous, waiting night-dayjob. my craft area is a total disaster. an explosion of beads ribbons and stones. I'm also moving at the end of the year. I don't feel like organizing it all just to pack it away. I'd rather just pack it all away and start a new. there are too many distractions to continue for the rest of this year. i will begin again with a refreshed state of my crafting mind. Enjoy these for the time being.

Happy winter solstice, see you on the other side.
