fleece and moving (was Re: 48 hours--spoiler for talk of the w*r)
trill
when fleece was invented, way back, the original pol*rtec stuff, I
fell in love with that, too. And now, thanks to gargantuan thrift shop,
and my ability to pass as a senior and get the extra discount on already
cheapo prices, I am the proud possessor of a large collection of that
stuff, too. Pants, jackets, sweaters, pajamas, robes, throws, and many
pairs of socks. Well, the socks come from bargain basements.
Right this minute I've got on a fleece jacket. It is super soft and
cozy.
Ugh! Moving.
Wow, I'm sorry you had to go through that. I'm still struggling,
almost a year after my move to put my place together the way I want it.
But, it is getting there. I got all of my living room books out and on
the shelves last weekend. And I got a new chandelier installed last
night (another super thrift store find, it is art deco, purple frame and
frosted glass in three layers that refracts the light in a super cool
fashion.
I've got an outa town guest coming on 4/18, so that's my deadline to
finish. The apt. is way cool, in the woods, at the top of the park. My
windows are surrounded by trees. And I wish that I had prioritized my
office/studio, rather than my living room. I think I'll tackle that
tomorrow. I feel inspired about doing some art work and writing.
your good friend,
trill
