This weekend was a little on the warm side in Ottawa, so instead of doing martial arts, I stayed home and puttered away at some home projects. I now have only one drawer left to do for my kitchen. It's strange. I'm having to retrain myself to get a fork as they don't live in the dining room anymore. My sharp knives are temporarily in the dining room while I make the last drawer bottom. I'm filled with a low-level joy at having a chunk of my home back together.
After cutting drawer inserts from the scraps of flooring, I read online about what projects to do with linoleum. I then cut out coaster sized pieces from this chunk that really couldn't be put to another purpose. I set those aside for a time when I'm feeling crafty. Once I get everything cleaned up and the drawers done, I want to paint over the mural I started in my living room. I'm just not into it anymore and want to use the wall space for more art. I have DVD inserts that I'd like to frame, plus need space for my models if I ever complete one. I'm currently puttering away at the Ghostbusters car. Well, I was. I've set it aside to be a responsible adult and get the rest of my place cleaned up before playing around with it.
It's already loads better than it was in here. With it being a little cooler today, I think I can get some dishes done today and clean it up even more.
I had to spend time taking apart some areas of the sewing project I'm working on. I may have to re-cut some of the liner pieces. The pattern isn't well written, so sometimes it's fun to figure out what it is they actually want you to do and when you're supposed to do it.
I've been rather sucking at the fitness goals lately, but if I can get my place cleaned up, I'll have the space to really put time into working on my core strength. I better get back at my thoracic exercises before I become a hunchback. Of course, it helps if my chair is at the proper height...
I have a bunch of stuff I need to copy into Scrivener from paper notes for The Blood Waitress Club. After I do that, I will know better where I am at with the book. I'm going into a learning mode with my script as I have been feeling like I'm not sure if I have any clue of what I'm doing. Hopefully, I'll figure it out once I read Save the Cat.
My index finger is still a little tender, so I've not been doing much in the song writing area. Also because of all the other things I'm working on, this has taken a back seat.
I've fallen behind in the Transmedia course, though I usually catch up by the end of the week. Other things are a bigger priority to me.
I feel like I have so much to do before September and the days are going by quickly. Too quickly.
Well, I should get working on the ever-expanding to-do list.
Salut,
