things I am into right now

Reading (totally cheesy summer reading!) I did just buy the twilight series since the libraries copies had over 200 holds on each book. While I was at it I also pre ordered the new one. I have other literary interests too, but cheesy vampires are winning right now.

The Avett Brothers

Painting! Soon to be revealed I promise.

New Pants. Bigger but who cares? At least I won’t have a muffin top now.

Riding bikes. I got my seat fixed lets see if it lasts!

Week

B is gone this week to Tales of the Cocktail I am looking forward to a quiet house but I will miss him while he is away!  I am thinking about chickens and what the hell to do with our yard. Heh I accidentally typed yarn not yard.

Did I mention that I am doing my own brewing? Not beer but Kombucha ! I got a scoby and directions from a coworker and off I went! I finally made the tea and brewed it. I bottled it today and with a little babysitting it should be ready to go in two days. I don’t really know what to do with it but I am sure I will figure it out. I am sure B has some good ideas!

Did I mention I have been riding my bike instead of driving lately? Partially because I want to be in better shape and partially because I don’t want to get gas. Not because of the expense (ok maybe a little because of the expense) but because I hate going to the gas station. I like it alot, except for the mass amounts of sweating. I always feel like I get somewhere and it looks like I am going to pass out and die. My goal is to be able to bike and look like I am not going to fall over. My seat keeps sliding down and I was right by the bike store and didn’t think to go in. OOps.

I am thinking about going to the midnight showing of hellboy tonight. I haven’t been so excited by a movie in a while.

Things here are back to normal. My foot is trying to fall off. It goes along with Li’s face and neck having the plague. It is making me limp around. I finally got around to brewing my kombucha today. I hope that I did it ok. I am so impatient so I may have not waited for the tea to cool enough. I was pleased to see that the scoby had made two scoby babies!! They are weird and slimy. It will be about eight days till I can try it. I am just worried I will kill it. I have been getting new music from the new gal at work and I am trying to make her be my friend. I think it is working. Once music is exchanged it means they think you are cool right? I haven’t been reading much since I got back.  We switched our bedroom in to what was once B’s office and it looks great. It is like living in a scoop of mint chip ice cream. I want to redecorate but can’t since we are way over budget the last couple months. I can walk around the room and not hurt myself. I consider that success.

I got more yarn for the secret present I am making li and judar but have not been working on her giant scarf. (sorry!) I also made a square for the baby blanket we are making for our coworker. It is ok but not as cool as if I would have remembered sooner. Yup I am ready for the weekend and it is Tuesday, but my weekend starts on Thurs. so that isn’t too far. Still not sure about the fourth. I am thinking about staying in since the dogs totally freak out.
