December '09: 15-16 of 31

15 of 31: Got my hairs cut. Felt good. I asked for some long bangs so my hair would look a little more put together in a ponytail. Whenever I'm putting my hair in a ponytail every single dog gone day, I know it's time for a trim. She straightened my hair too, which felt awfully attentive. Of course, by the end of the night, it was back up in a ponytail after I spent a couple hours crafting. But, a better lookin' ponytail. Even Matt said so. :)

16 of 31: By day - Meeting on the 25th floor of a building in the financial district. Free lunch. Delicious butternut squash ravioli with cranberries. After the meeting, a few of us non-profit folks gawked at the view and make jokes about having the corner office (instead of sharing a cube with 4 people). I took pictures looking south towards my home, near those Blue Hills on the horizon.

By night - Madly finishing up craft projects to sell at the Stitch House tomorrow night and through the weekend. I finally finished those chalkboards I mentioned a couple months back! I'm selling them for only $25 which is the bargain of the century because I seem to have put at least 10 hours into each of them - getting the boards cut, sanding, painting, sanding, painting, painting, painting, painting! Not kidding. After supplies, I might make a very healthy wage of $2.00 an hour! I won't be quitting my day jobs and thereby giving up those free lunches, anytime soon!

Since I needed inventory for the Last Minute Shopping Party, I put a vacation message up on my Etsy shop until January 2nd and raided the stockroom (aka a basket in our office). I'm also testing out a few new goods.

P.S. Thanks for hanging in there with my daily posts. I know it's busy so it's probably not the best time to flood your reader, although I got an email from my ever loyal fan Stephanie this morning - "what is up?" - because I missed yesterday and the website is a bit of a mess right now. I'll fix it eventually. I was innocently trying to find an easier way to post the big photos, and got a bit overzealous with no time to pretty up the space. [Edited: Fixed - Like it better than before!]

I may also batch posts like this for the rest of the month to save time, then go back to weekly posting in the winter.
