Dear Thread, I dream of you in my sleep…
Last night was so spectacular! Zack and I spent the entire evening together. Some how we were both busy bees from Sunday on. Thursday we tried to spend some time together but I was feeling a little sassy, a little grumpy.
I did my best.
I even warned Zack, I’m feeling kind of grumpy.
He said, I know and it’s OK.
MELT MY HEART, yeow!
See what happens when you’re honest? hah :)
And tonight, word on our Minneapolis street is that he’s taking me on a date. I wonder where we’ll go? One time we went to this amazing Indian restaurant, Bombay Bistro, but it had such a quiet atmosphere. The kind of restaurant where you whisper? Yeah, I had a hard time there. The food was sooo delish and our waiter was hilarious! Everyone had fun :)
I think some times I can easily let my work take precedence over having some R&R. I think my mindset is, Why take a break? I heart sewing. But… everyone needs a little break from everything once in a while. Recently, one of my good blogging friends Lindsay told me to, STOP! Take a break. Go on a date with your hubby. Take an evening off for yourself. 
While it was pretty much “duh” advice, it was totally needed. I needed her to slap me around via email.
What kind of Saturday plans do you have? I probably will sew for a few hours — remember I’m working on a secret project ;) — but then come dinner time I’m out of here like a girl that got burned on her iron.

What?!
Yeah, no clue where that came from.
Hope your Saturday is lovely :)
