And we slept in till 9

Yesterday I adjusted the side panels and sewed the long piped final seam, then stuffed the cushion in and zipped it up. It’s...acceptable, though a little loose perhaps at the top corners.

I did the laundry and hung it out on the line. I cleared off the 3x3 cubes and assembled the final tall ikea shelves for the nest. P swapped a tiny bookshelf in his study for the 3x3, and the tiny shelf now lives in the bedroom with daylight on it. Turned it on this morning at 7, and life is already better.

Listened to podcasts, and put an hour or two into paging through shoulder bags on Etsy. My birthday present to myself this year is going to be a new purse to replace the Duluth one that’s finally falling apart. Soft leather or canvas, zippered tote, lined, ~15x12x5, at least one external pocket, no interior dividers, soft handles. There’s a lot of different types of handbags and a lot of intersecting names, and so far I haven’t found a better way than just... looking through all of them.

Afternoon crossword, late dinner, took in the laundry, Elementary, sleep. Baked the honeynut squash, which is indeed incredibly sweet.
