Last Week







Todd picked up some free firewood and spent one of the nicer days of the week adding it to our stack.  (We depleted all of our firewood with this terribly cold spring.)

I made a few trips to the Goodwill and found two excellent leather bags and some vintage fabric/binding that I think I will use as handles for a cloth bag.  I'm excited for a new project for my new sewing machine...and I am excited for my summer break, which means more time for thrifting and garage saling!

We got to end (yet another) busy week by using my birthday present from my co workers -a gift card to McMenamins.  Too bad the clouds had rolled in by the time any outdoor seating was available...but it was a great way to end a busy Sunday. 

Oh, and on the way home from dinner (while checking my facebook mobile app) I saw the news that Bin Laden had been found. Thinking of the "where were you when" situations over history, I think it's just great that I got our generation's "big news" via facebook. Such a sign of the times. 
More on how I feel about all of that later.  Maybe.
