*insert random title here*

I should not have slept in today. No, really. There is waaaaaaaaaaay too much to be done - I'm still not unpacked from Fest, the SCOBY needs new tea, there's laundry to be folded, pajama bottoms to hem and finish (and another pair to start), a crocheted scarf/hoodie in progress, Christmas projects to plan, I have three clients later, I REALLY need to go for a run, and oh right, we have a wedding to attend tomorrow...and I have to buy new shoes. 

Allow me to distract you (and myself!) by narrating these pictures instead:

Ahhh...the Crafts Bazaar, pre-Fest, in the misty morning light. (I was on my way to use the catbox, but the light was so enchanting that my full bladder was momentarily forgotten.) 

 My workspace for the week. Sigh.

 It's been very hard working by myself in a small dark room this week, after working in such a bright and wonderful space with six other magical womyn...

 Home Sweet Home!

 The sign-painting crew are true artists.

 Belly Bowl, bright and welcoming in the near-dark.

 One of the critters encountered on my woodland safari. This little gal hitched a ride to the showers on my backpack, and was gently re-homed in the ferns.

 My view while working. Seriously, how the heck do they expect me to work indoors after that?!

 Ahhhhh, Belly Bowl - keeping workers hydrated, fed, and caffeinated at almost all hours of the day/night! How we love you!!

 Quiet woodland walks...

 ...and beautiful open skies.

 Meet Luna (on the left) and Aloysius (on the right), my new companions! Both were purchased from a craftswomon at Fest. Luna (who took nearly a week to tell me her name) is carved of rainbow jasper, and has a very calming and grounding presence. Aloysius is carved of hematite, and not only told me his name right away, but also that he is not a 'roo. He's a wallaby (Guard Wallaby!), and is intense and protective. They like to be together, with Aloysius always nearer the door, and they're very good at repelling negative energy. I heart them.

 Maple Walnut Flax granola with organic blueberries and local milk! NOMNOMNOMNOMNOM!

The beginnings of a Christmas present for my mom. That's not a P, it's B in progress, lol. I'd forgotten how much fun it is to cross-stitch!

Well, kids, that's all for now. If I'm a very efficient dragon, I can tackle the laundry-folding, brew tea, shower, and buy shoes before work! I hope you all have a fantastic weekend...very much looking forward to mine, we're planning a little picnic on Sunday! Yay couple time! Yay BLT's!
