Present Joys

“We thank the Lord of heaven and earth
who hath preserved us from our birth
for present joys, for blessings past,
and for the hope of heaven at last.”

What I did this week (21 sep 2012)

  • Left my knitting at home monday morning. Had to spend all day monday with no knitting!
  • Continued to feel very behind in my monday morning package design class.
  • Had friendship lunch as usual except for the charming addition of Colleen Clark!
  • Had an abbreviated independent study meeting with Mr. Lutz, then did work on a picnic table outside the library and did homework.
  • Had a class-swap crit in tuesday morning’s ad class; I got to show my work to some kids from Lutz’ next-door class, then I got to sit with John and Carly for the rest of class time. It was very nice!
  • Got into a mini-argument with Amanda about lots of things.
  • Broke about 20 saw blades trying to cut metal in jewelry.
  • Ran into Ann Shifflet in the lobby of Kinney Hall where she gave me a donut.
  • Danced with my jewelry teacher, who is inexpressibly cool.
  • Soldered three thick pieces of metal together at the very last minute on thursday afternoon. Huzzah—progress!
