ahem... it has been a few weeks!


Since I have been here last, I have travelled to Toronto for a conference, to Montreal for a conference and a holiday, my parents came for a visit, we finished (more or less) my office and in two weeks I am off to the Philippines. It seems like the days are stumbling into each other; somebody pressed the fast-forward button and it's stuck!

Unfortunately I have not been doing too much photo, or anything really fun for that matter... except... well... I do have a new crochet project, which is turning out to be somewhat fun that I can show you the beginnings of next week! See, now I am committed to making another post.

The photos are some snapshots of my new office...it's not quite done yet. I need drapes and I am waiting for a cabinet I bought at BoConcept. BoConcept is basically furniture that looks like Ikea, costs about five times more....and takes four months to get delivered!!!!! Sigh! But even so, I love the space, the whiteness and clean feel of it and I love when the sun reflects the green off the pine trees outside.

Happy Canada day for all the Canucks!

I am loving your office. It is so peaceful and calming. I wish I had such a lovely space in my home - perhaps I'll make that a priority in my next place. Creativity can not be stifled in that room.

I hope you have safe travels and I can't wait to see your new project!

Oh that fast forward feeling is too familiar! Your beautiful office looks very calming though. I have a star fish just like that one. Nice to hear from you x

Oh, hey, you! It's good to see you posting and lovely to see images from your home. I have missed you, but I'm also not posting much in my journal either.

I look forward to seeing your crochet project. I have a few things going on too. Have a sweet Sunday, girl. xo
