*sigh* my time on the exercise bike has become rather monotonous lately and I'm finding myself getting 10 or so minutes into it and really wanting to stop. Part of it is yjr fact that the weight is no longer melting off, and part of it is the fact that my stupid iPad still wants to play the U2 songs it came installed with more than the music I've loaded it with. I actually deleted one song since the lyrics bothered me so much - 'you have a dace not spoiled by beauty' WTF? Are you trying to make this woman leave you, Bono?? 'Cuz that's not a good thing to say to a woman you want to stick around!

Not that I dislike U2 - far from it. But workout music? Not this stuff. Gimmie a beat!


For some reason, Gmail has started putting my Pinterest Notifications in my main Inbox folder and not in my Social folder where FB emails and YouTube emails go. And today the Dreamwidth notifications a;sp showed up there toowhen they had been going to that same Social folder. I've tried moving them, but they don't show up there, so IDK. But it is irritating - why bother having the 3 different folders if they're not gonna file them correctly?



I did come home Inspired from the West Austin Studio Tour, byt so far I've only been able to channel that into identifying things to get rid of. Things that don't fit my life now, and I don't want to re acommodate them into my Life. Mainly a few clothes - but they're still here because first I gotta wash all the light colored cat hair off them! LOL And where is Mr White and dilute ginger at right now?? Napping on a pile of clothes. :) He's such a sweet boy - I won't make him move since the 'damage' is already done.

But I guess I'll have to take it for now - making the living space less cluttered is one way to get closer to who I wanna be since one's living space is an outward reflection of one's interior. :)

Ugh. Drought seems to be a good default for this place. We just always seem to be in need of rain. Unless there's a hurricane - then we get too much. Yeah, Harvey did make it rain this far inland, but no enough to cause flooding. Most of the damage was due to wind. But go less than an hour towards the coast, and there was a lot of flooding which only got worse as you get closer to the Louisiana border. People are STILL in hotels and in temporary housing.

Went rummaging through a couple small fabric bins today to rearrange them, and I am reminded just how amazing some of those gems are. GOTTA get my ass in gear about getting back to sewing!Aksi came across some plum stretchy (crushed?) panne velvet that might be good for making up a 'skater dress' like Eva's not sure how to make her journal name clickable yet), assuming she's still willing to sketch out the pattern pieces for me.??

Also managed to do some reorganizing and get 4 boxes down to three, so yay me. (It helps when one of the three boxes is bigger than the now empty box LOL(

BYAL's Lupercalia scents are out, and I simply have to find a way to sample some of them. (Cat Chasing Butterflies!) I'm just sooo potentially yuumy. I used to be on LJ's BPAL group, but that was then...
