Ah, sunshine!

The sun is actually out this morning! Wuhoo!

I feel... so... productive. It's crazy.
Last night, we decided on the couch. I think. We slept on it last night, figuratively, and while there is part of me that just wants to get it right now, it's looking like we'll have to wait til next week to get that particular one. Which makes me crazy. I want a new couch NOW, not next week.
I'm trying to calm down. Trying.

Did I mention that we bought xmas lights on Saturday? We went to this little store in the neighborhood which is unflashy and unprofessional and completely a rabbit warren, but appears to have every type of lightbulb (and xmas light string) manufactured. I was completely overwhelmed by the selection. We got a couple strings of LED lights, which use next to no energy at all, and put them on the front porch. They are so incredibly cheerful!
And as you might expect, they are very brightly colored, but they don't cast a lot of light. Last year you could sit on the porch and read by the conventional outside xmas lights. I think we'll move those to the back porch -- they would be a nice accent, and much less frequently used. Maybe.
I also bought a couple strings of battery operated lights. Unfortunately, I don't have any D batteries. But I am excited about, at some point, adding them to the bike. Like maybe tonight so the bike will be ready for the Bike Craft Faire.

I am so wound up this morning. I don't know what it's about. I did a load of dishes and laundry before heading to work, I bicycled :), which was just too good for words, and I'ver been so productive at work. Gosh, it blows me away home much I love bicycling in to work. I just wish I loved bicycling home, and how it's dark so early...

Another scooterist in town posted this "recipe"/"pattern" for a bottle cap wreath. I also am under the delusion that I'd actually tile something with bottle caps, and, um, let's face facts—it ain't gonna happen. But a festive wreath—that sounds like fun.
