Introducing Sarah!

A big thank you to Carolyn who suggested I look for Sarah Ginghers online. I found them on ebay for far less than retail. They were $19, which included shipping. I could not believe it at first. They are just so pretty. I am making them a little birthday present to myself. I love the fact that they are green with pink and blue flowers on them. There is something very nostalgic about them that makes me feel happy.

I had to go up to the Bay Area again for training. That meant that I had to leave by 6:15 this morning in order to make the 8:30 class. It was the last training that I need to attend up there. The getting up at 5 am took it's toll today. (I usually get up at 5:30 so you would think it would not be such a big deal.)

I came home today with the best of intentions to work on the home office/craft room which still lies in a state of chaos from the move. Alas, after 4 hours total on the road and all of those hours in the class, I was a bit wimpy and tired. I feel disappointed because I really want to get it organized. I loved my old craft room and just being surrounded by our beloved books, and my creative tools, so I am looking forward to being in this room. I think I mentioned in a prior post that my desk is actually a dining table that my husband crafted several years ago and it is one of my prized treasures. It is the perfect length and height for working on projects. Unfortunately, it has piles on it as I sort through boxes. I miss sitting at it and working on a craft project.

Well, I think I am going to read my book and go to sleep early. Perhaps I will be able to attack that craft room tomorrow...
