Things are looking up.....

1) Some of my students from this past school year are coming to our wedding! I'm so excited!

2) Made a ton of bunting today. More accurately - I cut out a billion triangles, but only sewed 8 feet onto seam binding. While doing this I finished Committed by Elizabeth Gilbert and started Eat, Pray, Love, both on audiobook.

3) I have a sales gig working for a local coffee roastery! No money up front, but I'll be getting a percentage of whatever i bring in, and it comes with other related possibilities, like working the farmer's market.

4) I wasn't able to find a nanny share for the summer, but at least I'll be continuing on with the little guy I'm already madly in love with, part-time.

5) Here are the finished guest-book-alternative cards.
These were made with images I cut off two notepads.  I should get a reward for being Nikki McClure's biggest fan since i cut over 80 of these things! I am very, very happy with how these turned out! However, now that now I tied over 80 knots and bows, we have borrowed a tandem bike for people to tie them to - meaning now I need to UNTIE them all! GAH! This is something T can help with.

Tomorrow: I continue packing up the classroom I worked in this year, and then I may or may not be babysitting after that. After that, a Pedalpalooza ride or two! By the way, I found my ugly bridesmaid dress for my Visions in Taffeta ride - it's awesomely aqua!

  3. lisa - thanks! i'm a little freaked about the work thing - i'm getting paid for literally 10 hours of work a week. this will pay my credit card minimums (and none of my normal bills. yikes.)

    jasper - awesome. i'll only be available for random evening/weekend stuff though since i'll be subbing in the fall!
