Hi all! My, my, my, time really does move quickly. I can't believe I haven't done a post since April. It certainly doesn't feel like 2 months have gone by. Of course, I do have a very good reason for not doing a post -- no sewing. I just haven't felt like it. Hopefully this isn't another one of my 7 year droughts. I don't think so though.
So, what have I been doing? Adjusting to the new job for one thing. I'm still wiped out when I get home. Plus I've really been enjoying my summer reading list. Talk about a big stack of books. All series. Let's see, I've read all of Charlaine Harris' Sookie Stackhouse, Aurora Teagardon and Harper Connelly books; MaryJanice Davidson's Queen Betsy and Fred the Mermaid books (also Derek's Bane - love those weres). Now I'm reading Katie MacAlister's books. Aisling Grey, Guardian series to be following by the Silver Dragon series, to be followed by either Richelle Mead's succubus series or Mark Henry's snarky Zombies. Then I'll move on to the coup de gras - Laurelle K. Hamilton's Anita Blake series and Jim Butcher's Harry Dresden series. I also have some books that fall under the young adult genre to read. As you can see, all Urban Fantasy books and nothing to taxing for my brain in all this heat. I also snapped up a couple of classics to read again - Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and Bram Stoker's Dracula. When I'm not reading, I lay back and enjoy True Blood (I just started season 2 - I have to say I love the way the series takes the characters in different directions than the book - so much fun).
So, in a nutshell, I've been doing whatever the heck I want to do. Yes, I still have the same sewing projects to complete before I contemplate anything new, but I'm not feeling a sense of urgency, which is a very good thing. Although, I am having a problem finding floral a-line skirts a la Liz Claiborne, so I will probably hit the needles soon.
Until then, I plan to continue to enjoy my summer reading and complaining about the heat. (So much better than complaining about the cold).
Well, I'm off to do a food bank delivery.
Wishing you lots of lazy days of summer and happy sewing!

I have been missing your great creations but there's nothing like doing whatever the heck you want and enjoying it. Hope you have a great summer!
I love Charlaine Harris and I've read all of her Aurora Teagarden books and some of the Harper Connelly ones. I'm not a vampire fan though so I've not read her Sookie Stackhouse series.
