hildy89Saturday was the writing marathon at the soon to be renamed Common Grounds. I'm about as prepared as I ever am for Nano. A few notes here, assorted chapter synopses and a lot of character and plot questions... just the usual. The Redskins weren't playing this week, so I used the bye week to catch up on errands, including getting a new printer cartridge and assorted Nano office supplies. You simply can't go into Nano without an array of pens, pastel colored notecards and sacrifical legal pads. Maybe I'm just weird that way.
I'm getting back into needlework, working on Mirabilia's "Garden Verses" during the World Series. I feel like I've been working on this big project forever. I prefer doing the older patterns by some designers before they've become overly enamored of beads and metallics. Mirabilia's patterns usually have nice solid blocks of color I can manage while I keep a weather ear on the score. This piece has one metallic thread, but at least it isn't blending filament. Also a few blended colors, but again it's just a few accents, not a confetti effect.
With the filing project done, I'm back to being unemployed tomorrow. Being a temp sucketh mightily right now.
