Well, it’s July and I’m back Abroad. I had several other lovely craft projects going over the holiday, but of course forgot to take pictures of them — so you’ll have to wait until Christmastime to see. As for now, I’m settling back in, getting back into the swing of Work, beginning a new exercise regimen, learning a bellydance choreo to be performed in two weeks, searching for yarn for a Very Special Flat Project, and considering taking up another dance form.

The new exercise regimen is the big deal right now — I’ve been unhappy with my fitness levels for a while, but was struggling to find something that actually worked for me. Then one of my mother’s friends lent me a book on weight-training for women, saying it had helped her — and I, like an idiot, had forgotten that in my undergrad years the happiest and healthiest I ever was when I lifted weights and ran every morning. It only lasted one semester, but it was AWESOME.

So now I’m lifting weights again, and soon running will be added back in. Somewhere in here, things will be knitted, and dancing will be done. But for now, bring on the dumbbells!
