Organizing these thoughts...

Playing, parenting, work, randomness....

Dear Friday, I love you.

We should do this more often.

But really.

Don't get me wrong, it's been a crazy day, and it's not even noon. This weekend is basically a marathon, working, superbowling, and studying (apparently I have another test and presentation due next week...)

Either way, I'm glad it's Friday. It's dress down day, even! I swear, class is a LOT less painful in a hoodie and jeans.

This weekend, I have some ambitious projects to finish up. OK, maybe not that ambitious. Last weekend I spent some time prioritizing and collecting supplies for my projects. I decided my needs were..
1. A pencil holder: My desk, which I LOVE is getting super beat up. I think having writing utensils in an accessible (and adorable) place will help save wear and tear on my top drawer, which has developed a squeak. Of course, this is a process, I'll have to clean out and organize the drawers, the top of desk chaos, soap the drawers so they don't squeak, then cute-en it up and plant it on the clean desk....
2. New Art: Now that my living room is (almost) painted, I think it's time for a wall wear upgrade. Bought some canvases and decided it's time to use up the random paints to make some wall art happen.
3. New bag: I could always use a new bag. Goal, is have it done by spring break. Got some clearance corduroy (I wanted enough of one fabric to make the most of it, and my fabric bins are currently being held hostage in a hostile environment), this weekend I'll draw the pattern.

I know, it's a little silly to have 3 concurrent projects. During last week's blog hop, I saw so many adorable posts, with before and after pics, processes, etc. Loved it. But realistically, I just don't have the space, patients, or chunk of time to get things done in a process fashion, at least, yet. (Hobby room IS on the horizon!) So, I'm starting 3 small but needed projects now, so when I want to work on something I can pick up whatever works for the space and time I have.

So, happy weekend all :) And I'll update this with pics when I get home, to at least show the "before" shots...
