First Week

It's been a great first week of school. I feel calmer and more organized than I ever have and I really don't know what is different. But I like it. Getting "first day" flowers from Steve was icing on the cake!

I haven't had much time to spend reading blogs the past two weeks and I tried to catch up tonight. While reading and skipping around the ether-net, I found this cool tutorial for making dryer balls. I don't like the heavy fragrance of dryer sheets and it's been getting harder to find the scent-free ones, so I'm going to try this and see how it works. Heaven knows I have enough yarn lying around my house!

I haven't had much time for knitting either, but I did finally finish reading Wolf Hall. I thought it was a really interesting book, and I'm not normally a huge fan of historical fiction.

I also went to see a talk given by Sonia Sanchez and Nikki Giovanni on Tuesday night that was a great experience. Awesome women; makes me want to read more poetry, so I've reserved six of their books at the library!

I have to send this link for friendship necklaces and/or belts to my girls; I think they'd really like them. And I'm pretty sure Stef will love this pom pom garland!
