it hasn't been all bad lately. i've had happy thoughts and joyful heartstrings too. here are some of them:
- hip belts that already fit around my hips and not my waist.
- i got the jeans and trousers that i had altered and they were done perfectly. no more complaints on having nothing to wear! =)
- being told that i look younger by 3 different people.
- discovering a new author that i love. =) i'm devouring all of kelley armstrong's books.
- making my home look exactly the way i always wanted it.
- finding the perfect shade of camel paint. the exact shade of a burberry cashmere coat i found on neiman marcus online.
- watching chocolat with manuel while vito was asleep and sipping van houten hot chocolate spiced with pepper.
- finishing another painting
- getting orders for the book thongs i made!
- getting an early christmas gift from manuel - a crimson patent leather liz claiborne tote that almost matches the wallet T gave me =)
- christmas shopping!
- not gaining weight despite the chocolates and brownies i ate last week. =D
