25 & 26.

the phrase “old biddy” is in one of my textbooks. it makes me happy.

this one isn’t technically from the 26th, but it’s the scene of all my rendering supplies set out before my long night of turning renoir into warhol, picasso, chagall, and kee. which lasted into the 26th. maybe i’ll be back with a bonus picture for tuesday after some sleep.

23. my roommate left me a note at eye-level on the mirror last weekend and her notepaper is so cute i kept it and put it on the inside of my door..sure brightens the dull off-white up :)

24. we have to keep daily sketchbooks for costume design, and i saw my friend drawing a kitty paw in hers…made me laugh.

this is my absolute favorite verse in the whole bible:
the Lord your God is with you; he is mighty to save. he will take great delight in you; he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing.
let him quiet you with his love.

today i got around to making the earring holder i’ve been wanting for ages!! and only because i had to go to hobby lobby last night to pick up pastels and watercolor pencils and medium tooth paper (squee!). i LOVE it. it freed up a ton of space on my cute-but-not-very-effective “dressform” necklace holder :)

it’s not that good of a picture, but this took up a lot of my time and about all of my energy today. today was my first SUCCESSFUL time donating blood–before today, i’ve always passed out. i ate a big meal before i went to donate and i’ve been hydrating myself really well for the past week and it did the trick.. which is great, because if i still passed out after doing all that, i was just going to give up. :)

i am doing newthru30 and it’s tough, but so worth it–i’ve never actually read most of the NT. i didn’t get caught up on last week until sunday night, and this week i’m supposed to read through eight entire books. intense. gonna be so cool.

introducing my new balance collection. i have wide feet, and new balance is the only shoe brand i have found that consistently offers most, if not all, styles in wide–not just a “wide widths section” of lame, ugly shoes. i have three pairs. i love them all. they are on my “athletic” shelf on my desk–along with my yoga mat and my gym bag.
