sprout studio break time (a mini one) (just from blogging) (never from making!!)

so, i'm flying east on thursday. in between sewing up a storm and packing all my goodies (b/c the mr. decided to *drive* east 2 days ago! eep!) (he better make it for the wedding...) i won't have an abundance of time for posting. but, i'll get back on the blogging wagon soon. saturday is another wedding for us of really wonderful friends that we don't get to see enough b/c we live on the west coast and they are on the east coast. but we also will get to see them in nyc b/c that is where they are spending their honeymoon and we'll be up there renegade-ing and art-ing it (and cock-tailing it) with our other lovely twospace and india romeo friends! hoorah for ny!

also, i'm compiling a list of some summer reads to check out at the local library while i'm in norfolk - any suggestions for me? some fav's of mine are mark helprin, anne lamott, madeleine l'engle...

the other fun things on my to do list are to experiment with the gocco, find fun vintage-y cool things at thrift stores, lounge at beach, learn to surf, drive on beaches in north carolina, eat yummy foods from grill, swing in a tire swing from big magnolia tree, take out friend's canoe at dusk each evening to watch sunset, wear lots of anti-mosquito bug spray, camp out in hatteras, play with nephew (who turns 1 the day before i turn 32!), go find lots of art to look at (which could be challenging in norfolk, so i'll be broadening my spectrum), write and sketch in journal for me and for sprout studio ideas, sit in lawn chair while sprinkler waters greeney grass, plant tomatoes in my friends garden and EAT them all right off the vine, drink lots of iced tea while porch sitting on all friends porches (that are all huge and marvelous in virginia), do lots of yoga, take lots of photos, do lots of wandering, de-stress, de-toxify, hang out with my momma & papa, hang out with the in-laws and other assorted relatives, and last but not least, try not to miss my crazy dixie-loo loo too overly much as i'll get all teary not being with her for 2 whole months...boo hooooo. (but she'll be with the best people ever taking care of her) (but i'll miss her sorely)...

so, for now, i probably won't be posting until sometime late this weekend - maybe i'll get to shoot some party wedding pics...we'll see (or maybe i'll just surprise you and post some nonsense anyways!)

xxx.
