365 Challenge: Week 10

4. Sewing some drapes for a friend
5. Late night dinner with Craig
6. Beautiful views on my way to an early breakfast
7. Baby present for little Teresa
8. Lunch break reading
9. Fabric shopping
10. Helping Rachel move to her new apartment
This Week...
I started my 2nd upholstery class...
and found an amazing fabric store from which I bought 30 yards.
I went for tech training for work for 3 days.
I helped Rachel move on Saturday - unfortunately her new place is about an hour away - boo!
Craig and I finished our first 'Relations' piece for GMan,
we're so excited!
I lost my appetite for all food. Honestly, I haven't wanted to eat a single thing all.week.long.
We moved the clocks forward! Whoop Whoop!! I love daylight!

Norah is doing so much better - we started training her with the muzzle for her barking and biting (not really mean biting, just a lot of puppy biting). We just put it on her for a few minutes when she gets really out of control and she lays down...then we take it off and shes so much better. I recommend trying it if you have a puppy who is a little crazy. They're so lucky they're cute!

Hope you guys had the best week!

5 Getting ready for the super bowl!
6 Nekot - its whats for dinner
7 Taking Norah to the vet...for the 3rd time
8 Chicken tacos
9 Making thank-you gifts

This Week...
was a rough one for Norah...
...we had to take her to the vet several times because she wont leave her incision alone.
I finished my map ottoman aaaannnddd
I bought 2 amazing chairs for my next reupholstery class. 
I felt really thankful for the people that I work with.
Craig and I made time for cooking and sweet dates.
The Patriots lost...lets just move on. 
It got cold, finally. 

Hopefully next week little Norah can get her stitches and staples taken out and we can let her run free - she's been restricted to her crate for most of the week and its just heart breaking. Maybe if she wasnt so crazy and learned how to pull the staples out of her tummy she'd be a lot better off. too much? okay, I'm done...

Like I said I bought two chairs this week. These will most definitely be my 'before' pictures....
I cannot wait to get started...come on March, hurry up!!
