Stewey supervised.
This is the latest that I've waited to do this chore, and the fretting and hand-wringing and complaining about it for the last month and a half was not worth the twenty minutes it took to complete.
That seems to be the general pattern around here. I fret and moan and kvetch and pull my hair out over the prospects of doing something (like laundry or emptying the dishwasher or making the bed) and I end up wasting more energy thinking about doing the thing than the actual doing would take in the first damn place.
Oh well. Everybody needs a hobby, right?
Speaking of hobbies...here is my beading progress on Vaceila. I am still really enjoying this part of the piece, and cannot believe how much the beading adds to the look of it! I finished adding all of the gold beads. Now it's on to some lovely pinkish brown ones (that are, unfortunately, very hard to see in the photo below):
That's the report for the day. I am off to a doctor's appointment, labwork, and then the library this afternoon, and then it will be time to hit the Happy Chair for more Gilmores tonight! I am almost through season three...getting ready for Rory's graduation!
Good grief, how I love this show!
Hi, I enjoyed your post. Over the years I've created and deleted several blogs on blogger. Started this new one this year, but my profile is still the same, and I like to click on my likes to find other blogs with the same interests. I love the Gilmores and watched all the seasons by buying the DVD's a few years ago. I heard recently it might come back. I hope so .
ReplyDeleteI just discovered Gilmore Girls this summer....love it! I can't wait for the Netflix new ones after Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteI love your admission about the angst of small chores. I, too, have this terrible dread of small chores that is ridiculous! Glad to know someone else goes through this silliness. Love to see a Stewey wrapped up so cozily!
ReplyDeleteStarted watching the Gilmore's due to your post & you are right great show so funny. Love how Veciela is turning out beautiful.going out to clean off my back deck the dang squirrels bombard me with acorn pieces so there is quite a mess to contend with. Hello to your faithful 5 legged friend too. Blessings Baa
ReplyDeleteGosh just unloading the dishwasher has been an arduous task for me of late...and then there's my closet...let's not speak of that! Love your posts and think of you and Stewey often! Hugs....
ReplyDeleteOMG you hit a sore spot with me with your talk of avoiding when it would be so much easier to do! Love your work with Vaceila. Not my style but truly admire your work! You and stewey are often in my thoughts- froim someone that has been there.
ReplyDeleteThe beading is lovely!
ReplyDeleteWow, Vaceila is gorgeous!!! I wonder, do you tuck Stewey in? He looks so lovingly cared for and cozy. ♥ Hugs & prayers, Cathryn
ReplyDeleteWhy, yes! Yes indeed I do!
DeleteYour work is lovely. The porch looks great too
ReplyDeleteStewey looks so cozy tucked up in his little bed by the window! Know exactly what you mean about putting off things that need doing until they assume monster proportions - and in the (bitter) end, they don't usually take that much time or effort at all.
ReplyDeleteVaceila's beading is gorgeous. I love the extra texture it adds, and I CAN see the pinkish brownish beads. Through all of her appearances in your posts I have thought, "Gee, I wish I could see her in person." I know she's even more beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI have the same affliction with chores. After completing a long put-off task, I'm always surprised that it wasn't as bad as I built it up to be in my mind (exception: income tax prep). Kisses for Stewey!
Stewey looks quite comfy while you were working. Loving the beading!
ReplyDeleteLooks like your boss got tired from supervising the patio cleaning. Your beading is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteConi, I am so glad you discovered The Gilmore Girls! I envy your enjoying it for the first time. And I don't think I have ever thought to say this: your home is so lovely. You have such exquisite taste and yet you manage to make everything so cozy and warm, too. It's always such a pleasure to see your photos.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful beading! And you have the cutest supervisor!!
ReplyDeleteYou go out and sweep, Momsie...I'll just supervise from
ReplyDeleteher...yawn...in fact, a pretzel following the nap would be
a nice touch.....love, Sombulant Stewey
Amazing progress! As for the Gilmore Girls, I'm on the last episode of Season 2. Has anyone noticed how much food and coffee is served but no one actually eats or drinks any of it?? I'd like a little more realism there ;-) Ha! ((Hugs)) for little Stewey!
