I've been on such a cleaning/setting up frenzy my picture taking has somewhat been lacking these days. Today, though, we're taking the time to go out and vote. Here's a handy, nifty site to plunk in your postal code and find the most strategic way to deter the Harper government to seize a majority stance: www.voteforenviroment.ca
Nothing like leaving important links for the last minute, eh? Hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving weekend. We were blessed to have the loveliest orphan type dinner at some friends' house. We sat at a table of 16 beautiful, interesting souls and ate really comforting. Like mom made it our something. But instead we all did. But the couple hosting are cooks at the restaurant here in booming downtown Winlove so, they make mean, yet loving, stuffing, venison, gravy, squash, pie and on and on. Why, oh why did I not bring my camera? The food and company were beautiful and one friend was decked out in a five dollar suit.
There's alot of changes going on around here. I'll get some shots one of these moments for all the projects are pretty beautiful, but some of these aren't quite possible to capture on film (megabytes?). Edie's room is now all pinked up and that was a glorious experience in itself (seriously, almost spiritual for me) really setting the nesting tone to an almost holy vibe. Now I'm trying to manifest some curtains to go perfectly with the lazured walls. That's the deal with the dyed chiffon up top. I dyed some silk chiffon in shades of pinks, orange and yellow then nuno felted a panel. Safe to say, did not work out. Bummer. Time's a ticking. Another nesting project that didn't quite pan out is the mission I'm on to find a dresser for Drippy's clothing to place in the bathroom. I found a budget one a SHARE (like Salvation Army) but it's so huge and ominous I just want to go away and pretend it never happened. I have to get on damage control today now that the holidays are over.
We've also been folding baby clothes. So cute. Edie holds an outfit up and says "awwwww! So cute!!". Like every. single. one. Munchkin. Her excitement about meeting Drippy Head is really inspiring and adding a different dimension to this pregnancy experience. Love it.
And Craig. Oh, Craig. This is one busy, busy man. His top secret project is a cabin that he will work out of freeing up his office in the house to nest our new family bed. Nice and close to the bathroom. With a door. And walls. But the time crunch is getting to him for we can't really shuffle rooms around until he gets his space up and running and there's still a stuff to do. For now he refuses to put on clothes until Drippy puts on his/her first outfit and he pitched a tent out back he claims he will now use as his office space and does nothing all day but walk around with his pail, he calls his laptop, and collects "information". We're keeping an eye on him.
