of course this is a long term goal, but it is my goal to purchase property in NOLA and fix her up and create a home for me and for Jimmy and our blended family to visit when they like; but have it be our respite; our sanctuary. it is my hope to find a job, move, find a cheap place to live so i have a place to lay my head while i work on the broke down palace…

i don’t know exactly how to quantify progress on this as this can mean so many things. but if i have to list things that are meaningful to me i guess i would include that i have regularly been attending some of the farmers markets that emerge in the summer months; i walk or ride my bike to work regularly varying my route and discovering places i’ve not noticed before; attended Lollapalooza at grant park, going to the black harvest film festival tonight and scheduled to go a few more times before it’s over; going to “girls night out” benefit next monday; got rained out of the art fair last weekend; etc., so i’m trying to take advantage of my city.
i’ve been working on this and am in the process of working on a sweater kind of thing that has challanged me and am also working on another item that uses methods that i personally have never done, so again, it’s just stretching me. i am so much more relaxed when i knit.
