short update
Sep. 4th, 2005 09:33 pmA very uneventful weekend, which has been wonderful :) Gave me a chance to read, tidy, and otherwise slack.
Movies: (seen quite a few lately, should combine in one big review post): saw Transporter 2, full of unrealistic but fantastic action, skinny mean ladies and Jason Statham doing his own stunts. Lots of fun :) Also watched (again) the 2 most recent Harry Potters, and am reminded how much darker the 3rd is than the first 2.
Books: finished Jared Diamond's Collapse (recommended) and started doing some research re: next sewing project (Dress in Ireland, Patterns of Fashion, Juan De Alcega). Also got![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
skill_grl recommended Getting Stronger out of the library.
(Yes, most links are to Amazon. Yes, I am too lazy this evening to look past Google's first result).
Sewing: See above - competing for my interest are a farthingale or a men's leine for D. If I have enough yellow linen the latter will win.
Exercise: yesterday mopped kitchen and all the bathrooms (YES it counts! I was sweating like a pig when I was done!). Today: lower body workout with slightly heavier weights than before. Knees are fine but my calves are feeling a bit tight. Tomorrow: cardio with the exercise bike and one of the books.
Education: started my first module for the research methods class but am somewhat on hold until I get the book (procrastination = book not here until Tuesday at the earliest :/) D. put together a large CD of math exercises for me as well :) More testing myself with the early modern handwriting...
Also projected for tomorrow - little else! I have a busy week ahead so I want to get in a good day's slacking before starting back up again.
