I love sparkly things

What could be more fun than making free-form wreaths with friends, garden clippings, and sparkly stuff?

I’m having a hard time thinking of anything.

Mine aren’t done yet.

I’m planning to hang them in the three windows you see behind the couch in the first photo. I’ve always liked the way wreaths look when hung in front of windows or mirrors by pretty ribbon. If it works out, I’ll show you. I need to get them done soon so I can get that huge table out of the middle of my living room.

Clark and I clipped cedar and juniper yesterday afternoon. I made turkey soup and biscuits. By about 8pm last night, I was so tired I could barely form a coherent sentence, probably magnified by the fact that I did my sister’s ab workout in the morning. Holy cow, my back is killing me today. Not my injury though, it’s mostly my lateral muscles. My abs feel mildly fatigued. I probably need to work on form, or else my back muscles are that wimpy. And that’s a definite possibility.

Today, aside from finishing the wreaths, I have a playdate with S-I-L’s and cousins this morning, and I want to start cleaning my room so Nate and I can paint it tomorrow morning. Hopefully. Tomorrow night, we have a Christmas party to attend hosted by one of Nate’s clients. I didn’t have a lot of notice, so I have no clue what I’m going to wear. I’ll need to deal with that at some point.

Oh, and I need to buy paint.
