Two posts in two weeks. Yay me. I was excited to learn yesterday that my new dresser was ready for me to pick up. I got a call from the furniture store bright and early. Unfortunately, I didn't have enough cash or a car to pick it up so I'll have to wait until pay day. I'm also excited to say that I'm going on vacation! Every year in April my parents take trip to the Gulf of Mexico. They rent a condo and just relax for a week. We've been doing this since I was 10 years old and I'm 21 now. I haven't had the opportunity to go in 3 years but this year I'm taking the time off! I'll get out of work around 1am next Friday and we'll leave around 3am. I guess I'll be sleeping in the car. :p

The swap I recently joined has kicked my crafting butt into gear. I have the medium sized item completed, the small item ready to go and I just need some ideas for the large item. I have until May to send-out but I like having this reason to craft in my free time. I've been getting up earlier just to craft!

I'm also drafting a plan for a short-sleeved hoodie to take on vacation with me. I have about 8 days to finish it. I got the fabric a few months back in a remnants bin (over a 1yd in a remnants?!) and yesterday I picked up some matching knit and a separating zipper. I just have to find time between work and other obligations to get it started.

This is my post for the week. Now I'm off to my parents' to help my mom with some housework and hopefully I can squeeze in some time for a stop at the thrift store before work.

ciao
