thursday thankfuls
1. In the 'neat consumer goods' department: today's mail included a mostly full bottle of 'The Lion' and a sticker with this pattern on it.
(I have no idea where the sticker came from; I can't find it on the site. Nevertheless it is indeed cool.)
2. Also in the mailbox; information about our insurance, and (more importantly) forms to fill out for Sean's augmentative communication whatsit. One step closer, which is yay. (Does anyone local have a video camera or something like? They would like us to videotape him so they can see examples of how he communicates; it's not a huge deal if it can't be done, but it would be helpful. My cell phone video thing only takes like, thirty seconds worth, which is not helpful much.)
3. Tried the 'Bastet's Laughter' oil on one of my candles tonight. Actually wrote something. Could be 'magic feather syndrome', but maybe it isn't. (I never claimed to have much in the way of faith in anything, but I can try.)
4. Actually managed to sleep last night. Slept in horribly late this morning, but I think it was needful.
5. Broke out my paints and fimo clay tonight to make bits for hallowe'en costumes. I have now determined that if Sean ever informs me he needs a costume for such-and-this thing on three hours' notice, I can probably make something that's at least kind of respectable. (Still cannot paint stars beyond 'barely recognizable' though. Never did claim to be an artist.) Hallowe'en costumes are nearly done; just need to purchase one last bit and put it together tomorrow afternoon.
6. Managed to get Sean to try a new food. (tahini, if you're curious.)
7. Had some very nice coffee: JavaLantern coffee from Newton Coffee Company. It's very tasty.
