When the cat husband is away, the mouse crafter will play.

At least that is the plan. As Handy Randy left this morning for a three week visit with his mom, I headed to the craft store to prepare for a three week marathon crafting retreat. (Well except for that pesky jury duty thing. Fingers crossed that it will be a sparse court docket.)

First thing on the agenda is to pick up a few supplies so my flow will need not be interrupted by a trip to the craft store.  I am in a no-rush, all about me mind frame, so I take my time browsing the aisles at Hobby Lobby.  One never knows what one might need that one didn’t know one needed. Interestingly the things that drew my eyes I already have in my studio stash; some of which I had forgotten I owned! What does checking my inventory in the retail shop say about me? I don’t think I want to know.

I did pretty well, buying only a couple of IDenti-pens for a project in progress (the reason excuse to go to Hobby Lobby) and a couple remnant fabric pieces for a Sew Powerful  purse. Oh, I also picked up some new Micron pens for doodling in case the jury duty doesn’t work out as I hope.

Sticking to my plan, I am in the studio this evening, working on a couple of drawings,



stenciling and painting a garden project



and prewashing fabric for a purse making session this weekend. 



My AADD soul is being fed!
