i make one every morning, often carrying over stuff from the day before— it’s so satisfying at the end of the day to see all the x’s by everything i accomplished

i’m reassured to see my lists growing and getting more complex— after the fires, for a long time i didn’t make my lists— i was too shell shocked and depressed

today i made some plans for my november road trip north to oregon— i decided i am going to make the short side trip to see crater lake!

i did other “officey” stuff in the morning then went to my puppet studio and did “crafty” stuff all afternoon

i worked on a denim kitchen smock— i have some curtains from our big house that we had and i’m removing the lining and using the fabric to make light blocking window covers, backings for my bench pillows, the smock, and some coveralls

merchant and mills just came out with a cool coverall— the thelma— and it’s perfect for my denim!— the pattern calls for a button placket but i’m going to make it with a zipper instead

i sewed some loops for hanging onto a bath rug and a couple towels

and i wet felted a caddy for my dish soap and lotion!

i also organized my recycling and painted the front edge of my toaster oven cubby the same green as my cabinets

tomorrow i’m going to meet with walt to see about two projects i’m hoping he can design for me— a tea kettle holder and a hand vac caddy

everything needs a secure, dedicated spot— that makes tiny living so much more convenient!
