What I've been...

LISTENING TO

June was my final push to finish THREADED and a good binge helps keep me focused. The Opportunist was just that. I particularly enjoyed the mini-series about Denis Rodman. He and other athletes were working with a money manager in the 2000s who was stealing their money. The host goes back and learns about early scams this woman did on people from as early as 21.

READING

This is one of my favourite genres, historical fiction. I particularly enjoyed that the author looked at both sides of the Pacific War. He created American characters that attended school in Japan and vice versa, so throughout the novel, they look at both sides of the war and see the ego behind each of the ruler's decisions. It was very well written, with thoughtful characters and I can't wait to dive into book two.

WATCHING

Larry David is a comedic genius and I adore his take on the world. He speaks the uncomfortable truth and watching that unfold on Curb Your Enthusiasm makes me laugh endlessly. The beauty of his show is the improvisation, it is unpredictable, which breaks from the norm of formulaic comedy shows.

DOING

June was a different month for me. My sister and brother-in-law got to take a much-needed kid-free trip, and I got to spend 3 weeks with the kidlets! This pic sums up our time together; wild, crazy, loving, fun & bananas! I was lucky to have been raised by a village, this was a driving force for moving back home, so I could help my sister and her children. Our three weeks together is just one more memory we made together!

WORKING ON

THREADED is finally done! It was the largest amount of sweaters I have ever made at one time, and I pushed myself to create the most unique collection. I am so proud of the pieces I created and now they are off to be embroidered with our mantra 'no labels, just vibes.'
