progress
filed under: life

i feel like i finally made some progress on the dresser i've been working on for the booth. a coat or two of green paint and i should be good to go. need to reattach the back, put the legs back on, coat o'varnish...and decoupage the top with some vintage orchid botanical prints. oh. and do something with the hardware. haven't decided what yet.

this evening was a bit more relaxed than past ones. watched a bit of hgtv (i'm so hooked!) in between coats of paint and dinner. before that i practiced fiddle - learned miller's reel last night. it's inspired me to practice again. i love that song.

the restless feeling's extended to my job. my goal's to be in a new job in two years, whatever that may mean. i've had it to *here* with my grandboss - the dean. my direct boss is wonderful, but with the dean overriding all decisions that we make and designs that we do...my life is nothing less than frustrating. i don't have to live like this. i don't *want* to live like this! if i could support myself with freelance jobs, you'd better believe i would. losing benefits would be the only thing holding me back...

mood: tired, but much improved after lots and lots of ranting today (sorry to everyone whose ears i talked/typed off today!!)
music: nickel creek/this side (i should've known better)
