The first month of retirement past quickly. A week handling personal business. One week out of town pruning an almond orchard.
Another week of deferred housekeeping.
The rest zoning out, recovery and r&r. Where did that time go? Haven’t seen that full time studio artist yet.
Plans are afoot to be a stationary nomad. Rooms will trade spaces: studio with the guest bedroom, and my bedroom with the home office. The bathrooms are slated for a long overdue remodel. Retiring means making changes in other areas too.
Though I still haven’t cleaned up after Hurricane Elena, the state of domesticity allows some guilt-free time in the studio.
Four years after my very first quilt top, I now have a lap quilt.
Just in time for the guild’s annual Show-and-Tell in November. Orange Rhyme also got another moment in the limelight. A slide show will be posted here.
Just a peek at another project in the works.
I am in awe of the fact that only four years ago you made your first top??? And also at your energy in jumping in to retirement. Good for you.
