> TC, you are going through a really harrowing experience with your boss. I hope that your time off helps you feel better. I've been made more sick by my job and my supervisors before - it can be traumatizing. Please be extra good to yourself.

I've been doing all these things around the house. I decided to recycle this belt I love but never looked right on me (its this fabric Indian looking thing - I love stuff from India}, and I tacked it up around the border of the shelf I put up over my fireplace. (The one I put up to look like a mantle). It looks really cool.
Then I found these (again Indian looking) string of velvet stars that were actually Xmas tree decoration, and draped it along the top of my curtain rod. It makes it look kind of mystical.
Next I'm thinking of making slip covers for the chairs at my kitchen table. I only have two chairs, and have the table pushed up against the wall like a cafe. I have these sheets that I liked the pattern but were always a bit scratchy, and the pillow cases fit perfectly over the backs of the chairs. That's got to work some how don't you think? My sewing skills are abismal at best, mostly because I don't have the patience to make perfect little even stitches. I may have to either invest in one of those infomercial hand held sewing thingys. Or a hot glue gun.
Its fun to have energy and feel the creativity flowing through me!!!
