I'm working on some laundry, but even that has gone horribly wrong as the washer (despite being a 'gentle' washer without a big center agitator - actually, it probably wouldn't have happened if if was one of the normal washers) shredded a shirt I love. Sadness. I might be able to salvage it somewhat, we will see.

And it's storming, which is only a downside because the dog is freaked. I love rain near the 4th of July, it lessens the chances of my house getting set on fire. Look, I'm all patriotic and I love my country, but as someone who did once have a firework (a jumping jack, to be precise) caught in my hair, I'm more than happy to leave the firework displays to the professionals.

I'm supposed to work on the bathroom tomorrow, but of course I don't want to. We also need to move the shed, because they are FINALLY supposed to start painting the house next week. I'll believe it when I see it.

I have a costume to mend for a friend (need to buy beads) and a veil to hem (it was torn, so I simply shortened it) and I could finish my set of stitch markers (knitting) and try making my new Crochet Keepers charms... or... well, about a million other craft projects. I just don't feel motivated. So I will probably lay like a lump in bed and watch TV. I have DVDs from the library and my DVR is filling up. :/ Sometimes you just have to have one of those days, though unfortunately it seems I need one a week...

I did make charms for out bellydance troupe, though! Simple clay work, though the dark brown was completely crumbly and a pain in the butt to get conditioned... click here for picture! )

I also really want to sign up for the 'VERB' craftster swap. I know, I know, you'd think I could swear off them, but... (yeah, that's a whole other post, like I said). My verb, or course, would be shimmy.
