I've noticed there are some weird quirks that happened when transferring my blog from Wordpress to here. Vimeo videos not posting and such. Whoopsies! Maybe I'll have the patience to go through and edit, but also maybe not...

Italy,

Thinking of you.

Instead of paying a ton, I'm gonna give it a go myself, something similar. Maybe a little less biker chick-ish...

I'm starting to think I might have high expectations of people. I didn't think so, but I keep getting proven wrong. This makes me heavyhearted and want to check out for a bit. I wish it was as simple as the 'ol golden rule, "Treat people the way you would like to be treated." Maybe it's time to lower my expectations.

I love Amanda McCavour's work. It kinda blows my mind. The beautiful, intricate stitches, the size(!), and the whimsical feeling it gives to a room. (Which I would like to experience for myself.) I can't believe she does it with just a normal sewing machine. I assumed some industrial, large machine. So I obviously need to sit down with my [mother's] 70's thing and see what this bad girl can do.

(Also, is she not the cutest thing ever on top of it!?)

Can I pay someone to remind me of this everyday?

Happy Thanksgiving.

I want to see this with my eyes.

I'm going to get started with Christmas early this year. I got a bunch of stuff yesterday to start making gifts. I haven't started before the last min in December in years, so there was never enough time to make everything. It's much more meaningful annnd cheaper that way. I'm getting a tree the first week of December. I want that pine smell when I walk in the door for the whole month! I'm looking forward to lighting candles, making a warm drink, putting on [tasteful] Christmas music and decorating my little tree. Maybe I will actually have some Christmas spirit this year. It's been harder to do as an adult I've found. Yet, Christmas has a cozy romance to it, in my opinion.

I'm in love.

I will get a bike at some point. I am just waiting for the right time, for me. And now I will save to get something as close to this as possible. It's perfect.

I wonder when I'll start holiday cards. I remember every year, my parents scrambling to get the holiday letter and photo (oh, and deciding which photo) done to send out in time. My dad sitting at the computer printing out dozens of letterheads and envelopes. Reading the letter my dad wrote in his reporter-esque style, giving an overview of our various accomplishments of the year. It seemed so stressful and rushed, all to fill in people you haven't talked to in years. A nice idea, of course. I did always like seeing how family friends had changed, grown up. But is it as necessary anymore when now we keep up on Facebook, email, etc? I want to think it is, because it's always nice to get personal mail and think of people you love from your past. I think when I finally get organized and on top of such things (which I tend to be very bad at, as the # 1 procrastinator/keep-in-toucher ever) I will finally feel like a real adult.

(These cute cards sure do make it seem more appealing though...)
