this weekend was great. i am so so in love with the rain, and rainy/stormy weather is one of my favourite things in the world... it gives you an excuse to be creative, and find things to do... AND it makes me feel less guilty about staying inside.
friday: got home from work after a long stop for supplies at the mall - then literally spent the night prepping and watching tv on my computer. wish i could say it was more exciting than that... but it wasn't. sweatpants, bead supplies, and the league. and i needed it.
saturday: woke up pretty early to get some last minute supplies for the beading workshop... then, once i had it all, went over to kelly's place, where i taught her and her bridesmaids some beading basics, and they all made necklaces... then headed straight to the GO train to pick up Jeff. had some dinner, and then got into costume. drove out to mississauga to hang with some friends, and have some drinks in halloween style. it was a late night, but so fun to hang out with everyone at a house party... so much better than a bar. drove home around 2:30, and WAY too late to bed (exhausted).
sunday: woke up to meet my friend's dave and laurel, and their little munchkin for some breakfast at one of my faves - sneaky dees. showered the babe with presents, and had some amazing food. then, when we got home, jeff napped, and i went into productivity mode - cleaned my oven and stove, washed the floors, cleaned my bathroom, purged, did laundry. it was spectacular. then, made some poutine and watched sons of anarchy in bed. it was a rainy day, perfect for staying inside. dropped jeff off at the GO train at 7, and then spent the rest of the evening in bed. laaaaaazzyyyyyy.
(earlier in the week) met with my dear friend jhyve, to discuss jewelry options for his performances and music videos (new markets are AWESOME); i'm not sure how i feel about colours for fall - but i guess i may be forced into colour after all; prepping for my bead workshop - tools and pre-packaged jewelry kits; the ladies working hard on their pieces (all workshops should include wine); i hate halloween - so if i'm going to dress up, i'll be dead (also, uber unflattering perspective - i promise those pants fit properly in real life); the last of the devil pills - thank. goodness.; brunch with a little munchkin... and presents!; prepping for sunday afternoon poutine; i AM the most stylish person you've ever met; sweatpants and mad men for a rainy sunday night; and nails.
