Photo Friday

Cloud heart. :)

I haven't updated in forrrrrever. Here's an update:

1. I replenished my paint trove earlier today due to Michael's having a .33/bottle sale.  Yes!
2.  I'm now 28.  This has made me think about the past, what could have been, what is now, etc.
3. Nostalgia like crazy.
4.  I've been listening to a lot of music I listened to years ago.  Dashboard, NFG (Always listen to them, though :D), Starting Line, etc.  This probably contributes to my heavy case of nostalgia.
5.  Did I mention nostalgia? Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever been decent friends again with people, or persons, I once called my best friend(s). I'm trying to be vague here.  I honestly don't know. I don't even know if such a thing would be good for either party.

This weekend we're doing a reshoot for the movie I worked on all summer. Well, I guess it's technically not a reshoot since we never shot it in the first place.  The original scene was cancelled.  I'm pumped because it's at a local giganticcccc music festival.  I didn't buy a ticket this year since I had just purchased tickets for Sigur Ros in October and New Found Glory in November, but now I'll get paid to go. ^.^ I have no idea how they're going to film in a sea of random people, but it should be interesting none-the-less.  I don't know how much actual standing-in I will do, but we'll see.

Mewwwww

I adopted a new family member last Wednesday...

Her name is Zillah, she's 1 year, 4 months old, and she's still a complete kitten.

She has a little clef palate, so if she looks up at you her teeth are visible.

She's a petite little thing and completely terrified of my dog, Zanzibar, but I think she'll warm up soon.  Baby steps.

I was gone pretty much all of last week shopping, looking, and eating a portion of the 600 mile yard sale/127 sale.  I'll write about that later.

I finally was able to finish a project I started awhile ago.  It started with my local Lowe's having a 75% off sale on some of their succulents.  I purchased/saved a bunch of them and purchased three fish-style glass bowls from Michael's using a 50% off coupon, of course. :)

The result?:

Gorgeous, easy-to-care-for plants for my porch!

I bought a few normal-priced succulents to add color, but most of them were 75% off.  I also added a few plants I already owned (ex: Jade), and they seem to fit right in with the new-comers. 

Just one more step closer to having a finished porch. I still have a ton of other projects to do to the porch, but I'll get to them eventually. 

The weekend:

Zan knocked out on the couch. 

New succulent bowl.  I'm going to make 3 different displays for one of my side tables in my living room. 

New betta habitat on my coffee table. :D

Spied this guy at the petstore.  It's a ghost catfish.  I'd love to have one of these one day, but until then my new Betta, MG, will suffice.  

Photo Friday... late

I posted this yesterday via my phone, but it apparently didn't feel like posting.  Here's Photo Friday... on Saturday.

Heart in the clouds. :)

Now that the production I was working on ended, I finally have time at home to cook!


Breakfast: Oatmeal with bananas, a tbsp of Sunbutter, and cinnamon.  I switched to Sunbutter since I'm allergic to peanuts.

Random snack: Kale chips seasoned with garlic and parsley.

Lunch was a basic sandwich with veggies on it.  Nothing to write home about, but for dinner I made 4 Bean Chili! 

The chili really surprised me.  It's a really simple recipe, but SO good.  I'm planning on freezing the rest of the chili and making it often once it gets cold. :)
