Projects

In my life, it's perpetually true that Christmas = Projects. I don't know why I do it to myself, but you know...whatever.  Choices = Consequences, so using that logic: Christmas = Choices and Projects = Consequences.

Right?

(Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnd, the Logic side of my brain now feels like when your left leg falls asleep because you've been sitting on it for too long. Oops. I should know better than to sit on the Logic side for extended periods of time. People will only get hurt.)

One of the projects I've been working on for a while was a quilt for Blake's toddler bed. He's not headed there for a while, but I didn't know how-the-heck long it would take me to get underway...but at some point I underwent and I finished the quilt top yesterday afternoon. (Many thanks go to my sister, Hannah---hi, hannah!--who's chillin' at our house for a few days and keeps my kids company while I sew/recover from Christmas.) I'm thinking I'm going to do the back along these lines....and I haven't decided, yet, how to quilt it. 


In other news, ohmygoodnessareyoukiddingme? HAVE YOU SEEN DOWNTON ABBEY YET!?!? Where in the world have I been??? (Though, admittedly, I'm perpetually late to the television party. See also: The West Wing.) I'm not willing to divulge how many day(s) it's taken me to watch the first season. Nope. Lips = Zipped. At the moment I'm wrapped in fleece, sipping nutella-spiked cocoa, and ifyou'llexcuseme....I have a season finale to watch

Just in time for Season 2! I'm jealous you get to watch Downton Abbey for the first time.

Speaking of West Wing, Maddy and I are this very minute watching The American President (Annette Bening, Michael Douglas) because she's on a presidential kick. (Her latest fave has been Commander in Chief. Have you seen that series with Geena Davis?)

I have yet to see Downton Abbey... some day, I'll finish all 17 seasons of Top Gear and will finally feel free to watch something else. POWER!!!

I adore Downton Abbey. My roommate and I might have watched while I should have been working on finals papers/projects last month in 2 sittings. Yes, two.

Embarrassing, but true. It was kind of a short season....
