Boo's Booze


My one handcrafted gift this holiday season: homemade labels for Auntie Boo's various liquor infusions. I ended up buying too many of my gifts this last Christmas and didn't even manage a holiday card. I hope that 2009 has more completed projects than 2008. Next up: an upholstery class at Pacific Fabrics and Crafts. I will walk in with a $9 faded wingback chair from Goodwill and leave with a fully refinished and reupholstered chair for our living room. The class fee is non-refundable so I can't not go. Anyone who wants to join me, please do! Its the second & third weekends of February.

NYE

Happy 2009! This is the year I turn thirty30thirty!! I am terrified and ridiculous when thinking about it. Am I a real 30 year old person? Because I thought 30 would feel so so much older. I know I won't start shopping exclusively at REI and wearing fleece and trainers as of March 16th but I swear I thought I would feel something bigger. Ask me in three months. Ask me when the clock strikes 12 on March 16th and I will tell you if I feel the urge to drive a Suburu and start family planning. Until then I will grow my hair out, buy silly shoes I will only wear once or maybe even twice and I will love being in my 20's, albiet late late 20's.
