knowing today would be a packing day and my machine would be in a box for a while,
i was sure to hurry and finish up some lingering projects i wanted to get to before we moved.

this one was a work in progress,
and i am happy to say the duvet cover is finally finished.
my new bright little happy place.

i have had a few ask for a tutorial, so i will try to get one up soon. 😉

i can’t wait to get it all put up in the new place,
and to get different furniture and to paint stuff and rearrange.

in fact, the other night after i finished said project,
made my bed, and sat staring at it for long periods of time,
i starting dreaming up all the projects my new place will provide me with…

when cc came home,
the poor guy was just a tired guy in my daydream…

[i had been staring off into space for many minutes]
cc: what’re you thinking about?
me: how i want you to make me a mantle to go over my [new] fireplace.
cc: oh, right, of course…

[after a few minutes, he catches me staring again…]
cc: what’re you thinking about NOW?
me: oh what color i want to paint my kitchen table, and where i will put the hutch,
and what colors i want to go in the family room now that it will be so different and open…and how i’m going to fit everything into B’s new room…

cc: what now?
me: i am thinking about that wall i’m going to paint,
maybe it wants to have a design in it?
cc: you’re sick.

no, i’m just so freakin excited.

and it doesn’t help temper the excitement to have boxes already piling high in my house.

{the company moves us, so they came today and packed 1/2 my house.
that’s my favorite part. cuddling up with my kid to watch a movie while some else packs my house.}
