Time for some smex to get things going... ;P

Closing down for the evening... :)

While writing this evening I realized that this is the longest that I've written in 10 YEARS! Way back then I'd written Fanfiction for KFTLC (Kung Fu: The Legend Continues). One story was finished, the other still a WIP. And then I somehow stopped. Did small things in between, but nothing lengthy since then. I only hope that the current rush of inspiration sticks around long enough for me to 'win' NaNo.

Yes!

The sun is shining into my office window! I can't see!

Or rather, I see thing I'd rather I didn't. Like the fact that my office windows need cleaning. Desperately!

Hm... should I go get the cleaning stuff, or just continue to ignore it?

>.>

<.<

I'll go get the cleaning stuff... *wanders off*

EDIT: Ok, so now it's even brighter than before! Maybe I should invest in a set of shades? *ggg*

Actually, with November usually being a terribly dismal month, weather wise, I'm not unhappy to have bright sun streaming into my office. :)

Webster's is my new best friend...

*ggg*

I actually dug out my old Webster's dictionary from the bottom shelf here in my office. That shows me how much out of practice I am where writing is concerned. ;__; Maybe there should be a NaNo every month? >.>

Then again, maybe not.

The internet is nice enough for looking up things, but sometimes I just want to make sure that the word I'm using actually means what I *think* it does. I've been reading too much fanfiction, I think. It's corrupted my language. ^___^

Catching up... :)

Steeleye Span Lyrics

Most of you probably don't know what I'm talking about when I ask about Steeleye Span... ^^

But I'm trying *desperately* to decipher the lyrics for the song "Demon of the Well" on the Bloody Men Album. I've got most of it, but a few parts are still missing.

Anyone know/have the song/album and is willing to help me out? :)

One of my photos has been featured in an article on DeviantArt!

You can see the feature here. It's all about fall and Halloween. The photo that is featured is this one.

One of my bracelets has been featured on an Etsy treasury: Rainbow Colors

No sales yet, but at least they're being looked at. :)

Argh!

Never again am I going to try to sew thin satin without a backing! That's like trying to teach a sack of fleas to tapdance. In perfect unison.

*grrrrr*

I just couldn't get the different pieces to align with each other, because the material kept sliding, or stretching, or the edges started curling in on themselves...

*kicks velvet into the corner*

On the other hand, I've started working a new Kumihimo pattern and misunderstood the instructions. I ended up with a totally different pattern than the one I wanted! *gg* But since I liked it, I just kept it. While working on it, I had an idea... we'll see whether it turns out the way I want it to.

I'm addicted. :)

A house full of books... :)

I just finished setting up the 55th BILLY shelf of this house. :) In white. For the hallway. To house all those extra books that have been accumulating on the 54 *other* BILLY book shelves...

By now I could probably open up my own library...

Winter is coming... >.

Just brought in all the house plants from outside. It's supposed to go down towards 3°C tonight. And snow. We're supposed to get snow. In October!

Bah...

I'm definitely *not* a winter person. I *hate* the cold.

*sigh*

Oh well, good reason to stay indoors and continue with the rearrainging of my house. ;)

I just realized yesterday that I use an incredible amount of spices in my cooking. O_O

See...






And there's still lots more behind those that you see. :)

I did it! My Etsy shop is finally online. :) Took me quite some time to get the first products done, but they're up now.

You *might* recognize some of the color schemes, if you look closer. :) I also make custom bracelets, so if you'd like a *certain* color combination... (like blue/violet, for example), just request it in the shop. ^___^

I actually have *one* bracelet that is not up there. I'll post it later, because it's quite specific. :)

Ever since the chimney sweep was here last week, the furnace is off. And I can't get it started again. So, no heat in the house. At least we have hot water, which we get from the solar panels on the roof. But temperatures are starting to go down and it's getting unpleasant to sit all the time in the office. I can't work when I'm cold. >.<

I hate cold.

Gonna try reaching the chimney sweep again.

I just can't resist... ^___^

Oskar's such a sweet cat. And he *loves* being close to any of us - needs us, I'd say...

So I took this picture of him in my office :)

If he weren't so small, I'd have squeezed him to death with love already. ^^

Somehow I don't feel any different... ^___^

It's been a very, very nice day.

Even though I spent it alone - which is a pleasure in itself - I had lots of calls and mails and wonderful ECards and feel very, very loved all around.

I even got a huge bouquet of flowers - at 9 pm in the evening! *gg* The flower shop didn't see the order until late evening, but they still went and filled it. Which is *not* usual here in Germany, I tell you! They were from my mother. Actually, I should be the one sending *her* flowers for giving me the chance to be here. ^___^

We'll see what the new year brings. I certainly have quite a lot of plans and ideas. We'll see what happens with those. ^^

I'm glad to be here. Glad to have you all on my flist. Glad to have another year ahead of me.

*HUGS ALL*
