"So I went to consult on some costumes" and now I'm working on them. I find this somewhat hilarious. It's always amazing to participate in someone else's artistic vision. These are extremely simple and require mostly measuring for a balanced look. I did put off doing them, but once I started you develop a rhythm that makes it easy to finish. Unfortunately, I had to stop as we had an open house, that we prepared for, but the realtor failed, and I got a phone call while at the movies and 2 hours after it "started" from the person who was supposed to do it. "Hope I can make this up to you" he says. Fortunately he left this as a message, because I was thinking, " You didn't open my house, which means you didn't sell my house, and how does that get made up? " Of course it makes me mad at my own realtor who is on vacation and had left me the email, about how she was sure we were in capable hands while she was gone. I've been slightly fuming all week since and it leaves me wrapped up in a mood that is foul on the mind and the soul, I'm totally not good to be around. I am waiting for the day I can finally say, We've sold it!!!! 9 months is so long to deal with people traipsing through your home, disassociating yourself from your home and your belongings. I want to quickly make a transitionnd from this home to another, and begin living a normal life again.

Theatre
Ahh what a great week so far. Saturday and Sunday we were able to attend the Chop Shop Bodies of work- Contemporary/modern Dance showing. Fabulous show both days. If you weren't able to see it this year, definitely make the opportunity next year if your in Seattle in February. Congratulations to Eva Stone who put this gig together.
Today we were able to hit the movies and see Crazy Heart with Jeff Bridges, Colin Farrell, and Robert Duval. What a great flick. They all sing, which was pretty impressive. Not bad voices either.
If you get chance you want to hit this one up.

Olympics!
I love winter Olympics, don't you? The beauty of the skaters, and the thrill ride the skiers and snowboarders have. What great weekend to have the Olympics going on. Its Presidents weekend here in the states, It's Valentines Day, The Olympics competition is going on just north of us in Vancouver, and the Chop Shop Festival-bodies of work festival also was on Bellevue.
My hubs is Vermont for work, so we are spending the day apart obviously. But I did have my daughter home this weekend, and my auntie is visiting from Kauai for the week. We've been watching the Olympics in the evening, attending the dance festival and doing a bit of shopping and lots of eating out.
I hope you all are having a good weekend.
I'm working on a pair of booties for infants that kind of look like ballet slippers. They were so cute I just had to try them. pretty quick to put together, as most small items are. Will post when the set is done.
I dedicate this post to the luge rider who lost his life the practice runs before the opening of the Olympics. Such fierce competition, we know there are dangers in these sports, but we don't expect them to lose so much.
