I am officially on maternity leave as of today. I have taken a few pictures to commemorate this moment. The first one I like to call: 'ha ha!"The next one is titled: "vacation". You have to allow me my little bit of gloating - I am perfectly aware that the end of all this lovely leisure is nigh.. I wonder, is that how you spell nigh?
In other news I also took a few moments to take a lovely picture of my lovely living room before it is covered in toys and spit up.
A few things to notice: the covered pillows and the lamp - both on this weeks list and now crossed off!
The crazy quilt, finished the past November.
The striped chair which I recovered in September. It's a lazy boy!
The cover for the futon, covered stool, matching curtains and seat cushions - also by me. Actually, now that I think about it, I've had my hands on most everything in this room.
One last outstanding project (I always say that and then another one comes along) is the lamp. My hope is that the hanging lamp will one day look like this one:
and so if anyone has a stash of old slides or you see some at a yard sale, put them aside for me.

Thanks for the suggestion. I did finish a good if rather odd book called "Further Along". In other news it looks like my 'slide lamp' is going to be toxic to my health - I just got a message from a woman on freecycle who works in photography and she says that heating up slides I might be poisoning myself - it makes me wonder about all those lectures locked in a small room with the VIS slide projector ?!!
