A lot has gone on in a week...
Apr. 18th, 2013 08:49 amLast week we were spiraling into the weekend and work was crazy busy. I have been working a lot on many many projects and my brain is mush by the end of the day which means I'm feeling like I'm not doing reign stuff when I should be. I'm probably missing something....need to make some lists I guess.
Friday![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
scribe_ari headed to Color Me Mine which is a pottery painting place. We were planning on making large teapot but ended up getting a single serving teapot with cup and topper. We had such a good time to paint and play with something that was not our normal art forms. Having to paint light stuff first and then dark was odd since I tend to work the opposite. We didn't finish that night but had a good time. We then headed back to the house for beer and knitting and some Roadhouse movie watching.
Saturday we got up and got dressed up to head to a 1930s wedding in phx. Mel dressed pretty normally but had his tie on and I got a dress/hat/shoes combo that was out of my closet. We had a stop off with the college crewe for brunch and that was nice. We were almost late to the wedding but it was really nice and the reception was fun with things in gingham and mason jars. We got home a bit after 7pm and were exhausted from the hot day.

Sunday we had the household meeting. It was nice and relaxing and the household got cracking on our favors and they are done. We also got court stuff planned out but again, I feel like I'm missing things. Meh.
Monday was busy crazy at work and then I hit the gym for a good workout with Christy. I headed to safeway to pick up my Pretty Disney Princess birthday cake. Yes, I ordered a little girls cake for my birthday. I'd never had a princess cake growing up and I'm princess right now so I thought it fit.elinor_dear and ickaimp and swordmage all agreed and got me a pinanta filled with booze and dark chocolate in the shape of a pretty pink my little pony with my Raven as the cutie mark!
Tuesday was my birthday and it was a busy work day. Wow. I left and ran an errand before picking up benton. He had had an exciting day of throwing sand at people, not listening, not apologizing and then falling off a chair he was repeatedly told not to be on. So I had a crabby kid who had a boo-boo and it made for a trying few hours before he was in bed. Mel got home just in time for his bedtime and gave me Roses for my bday. So pretty.
I spent the evening having a Clown Shoes Vampire Slayer American Imperial Stout and knitting while watching tv. All good.
Yesterday work was crazy pants again and then I hit the gym to do the circuit training room and then hit some ab work for a quick 30mins of work out. I was tired and sweaty when I was done and felt good for getting to workout. I'm still weak in some areas but I'm getting back into the swing of it. Now to get my eating back under control...
Ari and I managed to hit up painting one more night last night and we had a good time and finished our pieces 30 mins before they closed. An album of the pieces in process is below. Realize the colors are not what they will be when done. Mine is red/black/white. Ari's is a pretty blue, red and yellow.

We get to pick up the pieces on Monday so I will have more photos then.
A good week...just busy and not in the projects like I like them to be. I hope to finish up a hat for Benton this weekend and get my sock moving some more too.
