FOR TODAY … 10 March 2015

Outside My Window… Lots of birds on the thistle sock, suet, and feeder…plus the construction staging grounds.

I am thinking… I really want a Parker Vacumatic golden pearl (the honey amber brown one) fountain pen.

I am thankful for… For the long weekend that I got to spend mostly by myself, I needed the sleep from being sick.

From the kitchen… Not sure, but it might be bbq’d chicken with a big salad.

I am wearing… Tennis shoes, jeans, multi-blue blouse.

I am creating… Finishing up a quilt for someone and waiting for beads to remake a bracelet that got lost in the mail.

I am going… to lunch with two coworkers soon.

I am reading… Miss Peregrine’s Home For Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs.

I am hoping… that we get rain and snow from the small front moving through tonight.

I am hearing… My TARDIS refrigerator, fax machine, me coughing, doves and finches.

Around the house… need to wash the bed linens.

One of my favorite things… Fountain pens…my newest is a very pretty blue TWSBI VAC 700 with a medium nib, inked with a mix of Iroshizuku Asa-gao and Ajisal.

A Few Plans for the Rest of the Week… Order more ink and read.

Here is a few pictures thought I’d share with you…
