Full of energy...for now.

[January 29] I adore this peacock. He took forever to make, and I lost my motivation a thousand times, but now that he's done I love him.
[January 30] This is how I spent my Saturday. Ever heard of Hidden Object Games? It's kind of like interactive I Spy on the computer, and I get sucked in for hours at a time. It's a bad, bad habit that will keep you (and by you I mean me) from getting anything useful or productive done!
[January 31] I should be doing something productive like digging myself out of the mountain of paperwork that is piling up around me. Class paperwork, applications, notes, tests, request forms...it just keeps stacking up and it's driving me crazy!
[February 1] As far as weather goes, it's been cold but beautiful here. Mornings are especially chilly, but it warms up a little by the time I get out of class and you get gorgeous views like this one. Those lights are the stadium lights over our soccer field. So when you're sitting in the stands, watching a game, you can look up and see this:
[February 2] So I did actually get something done...I sorted and detangled my yarn. I found this Sterilite container by the trash can here at the Inn, in perfect condition. It has the box that it slides into, too, I just thought you could see my organized yarn better this way. It's a big container and it fits all of my "good yarn" perfectly. Just seeing this makes me happy.
I hope everyone's doing well. I've got a ton of things to do in the next week and a half (and then this block is OVER!) so I might not post again until block break. I really need to finish up my two applications and figure out my Senior Capstone Project plans, not to mention a twenty page research paper and a huge final exam. Oh, and Megan's 21st birthday is on Sunday. Hopefully my energy will last until block break.

I've got some yarn to add to your stash. I found two bags of yarn that you left behind. Let me know if I should mail it to you. I LOVE the peacock! He's so beautiful and has vibrant colors. Thanks for posting your pics, I always enjoy them. Love you, MOM

I love hidden object games, but they do suck up so many hours of time. Do you end up playing the whole game through in one sitting? :) If you need it, I have a site I can give you that lets you download free full versions of games. (Not that I should be encouraging the habit of hidden object games....)
