Dearest Foresaken ..

Days like this are perfect for Iron & Wine ..
View from my desk ..

This photo is a couple of weeks old but the weather conditions aren't much different today .. I love how there are three different images in one .. The rain on the window, the falls colors outside, and the reflection of my hands holding the camera.

Five of my closest friends have left or are leaving town yesterday, today, and tomorrow .. Did that make sense? Some for a couple of days, some for weeks .. It's sad but is a good time for self reflection and hopefully spend some time with my family if this darn cold would go away .. Second time in a month I have been sick .. Good times. I'm thinking of doing a cleanse this weekend, a quick one. Raw foods, herbs, tea, and soup. That way when my friends return, I will be refreshed and (hopefully) healthier and ready for new adventures.

I also plan to be very productive this weekend. Get some painting done (kitchen and bathroom), and some other forms of painting hopefully. Lots of knitting, I would LOVE to make a Christmas pom pom wreath like James of Bleubird Vintage! Her wreath is fall colors, which I LOVE fall colors but it seems a bit late to me. We'll see. My sewing machine is in a black bag with bug killer, more on that in a later post, so that's out of the question.

I am hoping my niece, Mary, who is back from Spain after three years, will stop by with her friend, Jeanette, so we can do some crafting an catching up! So excited to see her!

anyway, I should get back to work ..

Busiest week this month ..

Had a great weekend! Brought my two groups of friends together for the Noddy show. All my new friends loved it! I was so relieved. The show was SO GOOD! Can't wait to hear more. Photos will be posted soon.

This week is filled with packing, knitting, uploading, cleaning, stressing, rocking, flying, hugging, smiling, eating, drinking, relaxing. Well, probably not the last one so much. Funning! haha .. new word!

The Scottish Invasion is at Neumos on Wednesday night (Frightened Rabbit, We Were Promised Jetpacks, The Twilight Sad .. SO EXCITED!) so I have to get everything ready to go to Montana tonight and tomorrow night. I planned on working 10 hours everyday for Mon, Tues, and Wed but I don't think I can do it. 9 hours each day should be plenty.

I know I won't be finishing, or getting even remotely close to finishing, my knitting. Some people will just have to get some stuff in the mail for Winter.

I am so psyched for Billings. For the first time in about four or five years I get to go and not feel bad about it. Not get shit for it. Not be chastised for it. Not argue about it. Actually, I don't feel bad about anything I do anymore. My life is better. SO MUCH better.

The day I come back is the first day of fall! My favorite season. I am excited for the leaves to start changing so I can photograph my new neighborhood. Here is a peek at what I shot last year:

My favorite time of year




And this year, no one will make fun of me for taking so many photos of trees ..
