my weekend in summary

oh hey there. remember me? i'm back.
i just needed a little moment to collect myself. and, to be honest, i needed some time to get myself together, so when i was written, it wasn't all 'and then i unpacked this' and 'and there was a lot of shopping for cleaning supplies'.
so, here we are. a shorter, neater, cleaner, and less exhausting version. for the time being.

this weekend involved: an adventure down the main street i live on; cracking open a new book - a long overdue reading of the starbucks book given to me by a friend; jumping with excitement over receipt of my package from my lovely twin/pen pal/long distance friend meredith in kentucky; a looooooooong overdue shop update; heading out to the great canadian craft show with steve and new friends; meeting the lovely justina of fiber lab - and her stunning folded lamps and artwork; vietnamese food (i felt a little bit at home eating spring rolls and vermicelli again!); a relaxing night in on saturday; some pitch and putt (or as i like to play 'walk and walk' - golfing is a lot less fun when you can't actually walk) with friends; some sushi for dinner; a night of relaxing and six feet under on mother's day, after speaking with my mother dearest.
and, in honour of mother's day. a little something to honour my mother dearest. babelicious to the max. a photo of the fam (pre-baby sister), and my uncle howard and his best friend richard. that's my mom. the one in the high waisted shorts, the awesome shades, and the giant hair. and yes - to answer your question - she's still that awesome.

happy monday everyone!
