My off day...

So, alittle about myself.
Iam a bit of a work-a-holic and currently work two jobs. My day job is interior landscaping with is nice seeing as how I get to work with plants all day but never have to worry about sunburn or frezzing buns. My second job is waitressing which I do only three nights a week.
The end effect of my working life-style is I only get one day a week off therefore these days are vital to my self-growth and over all happiness.

Anyway, I set out today with the goal of buying a few crafting supplies, making a trip to the drug store and opening the checking account I mentioned yesterday.

So, I strapped on my new Merrell hiking boots & took a "urban hike" down to Wal-mart...Iam not a huge fan of Wal-mart, but its whats closest to my house and currently I don't own a car. So, whats a girl to do? The hike was about three miles and I really enjoyed it, even enjoyed my shopping trip, but saddly it took forever for the bus to  take me home. I should of just walked back, but my bag was pretty heavy.
I never made it to the drug store or the bank. Which pretty much sucked, but there was coffee and cinnimon rolls at home. ;)

Later in the day I decieded to (FINALLY) get started on the garden bed kits I bought last month. I managed to put together two of them, but when I bought them I made the mistake of picking up one really easy to assemble dove tailed kit and three somewhat harder to put together kits. They also don't seem to be fitting in the space I assigned to them on the side of the house. Orginally I had garden beds in the back yard, but my beloved pitty kept running though them so it was sorta self-defeating to keep trying to work that area and the kits are alot cheaper than fencing...Doggy wins!

Heres a pic of my two new beds. Hopefully the other two will also fit in the space. Three of the beds are supposed to be interlocking...


Hopefully, I'll have this done by the end of the weekend...Even while working two jobs.

Iam still way behind on sewing. Iam aiming for two hours sewing time late tonight. I have everything I need to do my mug mats so theres no reason to keep sitting on that. My commissoned quilt also needs my time. My client isn't really concerned with how long it takes for me to finish, but my aim is the end of May.

In closing, I'll still be aiming to open that checking account soon and then my Etsy account. So, much to do and loving every minute.

XOXO, Fran.
