Done This Week
Yeah, see, even the time off is a lot less fun when I'm so aware of weird inconveniences and routine disruptions waiting just around the bend for me. I've been slowly coming down off the agitation all that caused. I'm definitely more anxious and keyed up than I would have been after a normal week of work, to say nothing of after (what should have been) just two days. Still, I got another big project finished this week, and that's pretty cool.
Lewisia: 3 new pieces written, and I'm getting better about getting these written sometime earlier than 8pm Saturday night
Gratitude journaling: 35 new entries
Tumblr queue: 35 posts added
Day job: 14 hours, which, uhhh, was more weird than pleasant, I have to say
Crafting: assembled all Pokemon card frames and hung them--pictures under the cut below
Gardening: dug holes for new tree and the ones meant to go around it
Other: jury duty, the weirdest experience of the year thus far

You would not believe how long, and how many hastily smudged out pencil marks, it took me to get this layout evenly spaced. My spatial intelligence is...sort of all over the place. I have to walk through a layout like this in some very peculiar ways for my brain to be able to make sense of what we're doing. But it was worth it, because this is exactly what I had envisioned once I realized I would have seven frames, rather than the six I originally planned. I just couldn't resist some of the Trainer cards I found when I was sorting, and now I'm really glad I did it this way.
I set the cards on cardstock sheets I happened to have laying around the office. The frames didn't come with any kind of backing, not even a temporary sort, and I needed a smooth surface on which to set the cards. They're tacked down with adhesive squares and have little clear corner pieces on the outermost ones. They're the nice, acid-free sort for framing, you know, actual art. Rather than my mad trading card mural.
Guys, it's so pretty and I love it so much. Best project ever. It is a wall of pure happiness.
