I'm Seeing Stars


The first 12" block of many that will make up a quilt for someone I know :-). I came home saturday night and cut and sewed and ta da here it is. First thing I've worked on quilting wise in 2.5 months. Turned out pretty nice too.

Grotto Grind


Finally went hiking after 2 months of not and the first choice of interest was the Grotto Trail in the Santa Monica's. It's about 3.5 miles over about a 700 elevation descent and the last half to 3/4 miles is over large boulders. Had an amazing time and it was well worth the steep climb the last 1/4 mile on the way out to the trailhead.

Simple Pleasures

It'll be almost 2 months this weekend since I've done any of my craft projects or hiked. Tonight I"m going to Seth's to go scrapbook and Sunday I"m going hiking again with my friend and classmate James. I'm looking forward to both especially since they both will help to continue put things in my life back to a sense of normal. It's been a rough couple months. Saturday is going to be cleaning, homework, laundry, errands, a spa party :-) ....and anything else I might be missing off that list.
