Lately

I haven't felt much like writing lately, but perhaps that's because I've been a busy girl. Work started back up, I spent countless hours prepping & fretting over the photos I turned in for the gallery show, I went to a couple nice outdoor places & even sewed a couple pillow covers. Oh yeah, and LOST started back up.

I've had these ugly 90s pillows since high school & decided to use the left over fabric I reupholstered my chair with to sew some pillow covers. They came out pretty good but the corners are a bit wonky. I still managed to have lots of left over fabric. I don't know what to do with it all.

The before & after:



My friend Liz & I went to Paramount Ranch one afternoon. It was nice to walk around & I saw this, which personally reminds me a little too much of Jacob's cabin on LOST.

Driving back we got this lovely view.



I also went hiking w/ my friend Cindy & a few other people to Eaton Canyon Falls which is near Pasadena. It was a great hike. Took us about 3 hours total. It's only 3 miles, but you cross rocks & rivers & trees & it was a lot of fun. Plus, it had been raining a lot lately, so there was lots of water. One thing I really hate about LA is the lack of rivers. I miss rivers. Sure, there's a big ocean but that's on the other side of town & the city isn't built up around it.



I wish I had some photos from when it was raining. It's supposed to rain a lot this season so I'm hoping for more. I even got some thunder & lightning a few times which always makes me feel a little more at home. Plus it makes the clouds look insanely gorgeous... and that always makes me insanely happy.
