I'm already making some progress on my new year goals! Through Craigslist I found an awesome craft/cutting table, with a cutting mat that fit it, for an awesome price. I also scored an awesome drop leaf table for my sewing machine. I'm super uber excited! I do need some new lighting for my sewing area, and Joel suggested I buy floor lamps because I will be moving the sewing area after we get Jake out on his mission. I plan to take over his corner of the basement near the bathroom. Both areas, the one I'm in now, and Jake's area, are sorely lacking in adequate lighting after the sun goes down. During the day the basement is mostly all very sunny and bright.
I've also made a list of all the herbs I use in alphabetical order, but I am still trying to decide on a system to use for storing them. I'm leaning towards canning jars, especially for the ones I buy in large bulk or grow and dry myself.
Joel and I took a drive down by the Temple yesterday because our local LDS bookstore is closing up shop and is selling everything. We picked up two VERY nice and sturdy bookshelves for a great price. That is also where my sewing table came from. We are very sad that nobody bought the store and that it is closing. It has been such a blessing to be able to browse the LDS selections of music, jewelery, art, books, lesson manuals, etc. in person. It's not the same as buying online.
I don't know if I mentioned earlier but I earned one A (Astronomy) and two Bs (SPED 415, Abnormal Psychology) last semester. I am okay with those grades. I would have liked all As, but it was a really hard semester and I started out the semester with a new prescription that made my mind mushy, which made it really hard to study, learn, and even make an intelligent sentence. I thought my SPED grade was going to be a C, so I am ecstatic that it ended up as a B.... seriously thankful.
Tonight is home made chicken noodle soup, with homemade noodles :) yummy!
