“I don’t have a clue what is happening here but none of it is interesting.”

I’ve re-watched four episodes of Only Murders in the Building and I have blog titles for like the next three months.

When I was little, with regards to Peanuts characters, I used to think of myself as such a Lucy. One summer when I was away at camp, my mom even got me this super cool shirt I saw in a catalog with Lucy’s giant face on it. I thought it was tres cool. Now, I feel like I end up relating much more to Linus. See below.

Looking at the internet this week, I’ve wanted to exclaim, “PEACE!” like Linus several times. But, I have to remind myself to just let go. I’m not in control and that’s okay.

I had a very productive weekend. After staking out my window on Friday, anxiously waiting for the UPS man, I managed to actually see him arrive and ran down to hold open the door for him. He was carrying a large bookshelf I’d ordered and after I asked him to pleeeease carry it upstairs for me, he obliged. I think it nearly killed him, but I appreciated it.

On Saturday, I put it together all by myself. I’d paid a little more to order one that was made in the USA and thus had the holes drilled in the proper place and the manual wasn’t just pictures. It even had jokes.

It wasn’t lying! I got it finished and moved into my craft room. I then spent Sunday “styling” the shelf which actually just meant trying to make everything fit and then rearranging a closet to hide the things that wouldn’t fit. I’m almost there. But doesn’t it look nice?

Trust me, it’s a major improvement. I think a craft room is an ever-evolving space but I know I’m lucky to have one and I am grateful everyday.

Last week, while running errands, I was feeling a little irritated as happens when I’m driving on Missouri Boulevard. The radio was playing bad country music, the sun was in my eyes, everyone kept turning out of parking lots in front of me, and I’d had enough. I switched to my phone via bluetooth and was like, maybe my phone will play something better. For some reason it started playing this Crowder song where he’s doing his best impression of Mumford & Sons. I instantly felt better.

Happy Wednesday!
