Birds.
At my desk at work I have a 4"x4" plate with a nest on it, a real peacock feather, a small nest containing my official magnetic name tag for my job position, a wooden twig picture frame, and three plants: a large Jade, a small Jade that was leaning but is now supported by three small brown coffee stir sticks, and one amazing Burros Tail plant. I love these things.
When I break for lunch I like to get online and Google "birds" and see what I find. I like this image, the cluster of bird silhouettes. I want to enlarge it, make stencils, and decorate my apartment.
My friend is currently making me a quilt with fabric I picked out. I could not be more excited! I am paying her for her work and I am also making her a pair of fine silver hand fused, hammered, and tumbled large teardrop shaped earrings with peacock feather pieces dangling inside. I will post photos when they are done. I love doing custom work, and trading. And, one of the best highlights of my new job is that not only can I pay all my bills on my own and on time, I can also afford to buy a little art from friends, jewelry, paintings, and now, quilts!
Today is Friday. I plan on spending the early afternoon sitting on a big couch venting out loud, then calling my landlord back about an email I sent explaining the upsetting issues about my building, then I plan on napping for at least 2 hours, 3 would be amazing. after that, dinner and a movie. It should be a wonderful Friday.
